The Midival Punditz are easily India’s biggest and most prolific electronica act. The past decade has seen the rise of the electronica scene within India and no single band has had more influence on its growth than Midival Punditz.
The Punditz have been trailblazers, breaking new ground with each achievement, and creating a path for others to follow. 
They were the first Indian electronica act to get signed by an international label, Six Degrees Records in the US. Over the span of their career the duo have released three formidable albums. In 2002 they released "Midival Punditz", creating quite a stir with their debut album. "Midival Times" released in 2005 and it further cemented their position as Indi-electro pioneers. Their 2009 release, "Hello Hello" has been their biggest album yet, even earning them a spot on Amazon’s top picks for 2009.. 
The Punditz are well known for their unique brand of electronica. After touring extensively all over the world, they’ve styled a unique and revolutionary live act that has room for jamming, re-mixing and innovating on stage, thus making no two live shows the same. The Punditz are renowned for these exceptional live sets, blending electronica with live percussion, vocals and Indian elements like the flute and tabla. They’ve played the biggest clubs in the world in the world shattering attendance records at each, including Fabric (London), Joe’s Pub (NYC), Blue Frog (Mumbai), Filmore East and 1015 Folsom (San Francisco) and 9:30 (Washington D.C.). They’ve played this live set at numerous festivals such as Glastonbury (UK), Paleo (Switzerland), Sunburn (Goa), Stern Grove (USA) with Tabla Beat Science, even playing to an audience of over 4,00,000 people at the Mahashivratri festival (India).

Karsh Kale is widely regarded as a pioneer of global fusion and electronica as his music has inspired and defined the worldwide club phenomenon known as “Asian Massive” or “Asian Underground” in the early part of the decade. Today Karsh's music has travelled far past the underground club scene and has been featured on stages from Lincoln Center to the Burning Man Festival, and from the Barbican Center to the Hollywood Bowl. Karsh’s diverse musical talents – whether as a world-class tabla player/drummer, producer, composer, songwriter, remixer or DJ - have led him to working with some of the world’s leading artists such as Pandit Ravi Shankar, Sting, Zakir Hussain, Herbie Hancock, Lenny Kravitz, Anoushka Shankar, Yoko Ono. Bill Laswell, DJ Spooky, Shujaat Khan, Vijay Iyer, Chaka Khan, Paul Oakenfold and many others. As if his existing list of accomplishments and talents were not enough, Karsh has established himself as a cutting edge film composer in India’s fast paced “Bollywood” film industry while continuing to score independent and crossover films in the West.
