Session #47 - Rajah Betta taking us down the tracks with an indie dance mix on a train to Mumbai.

A DJ and Producer from Brooklyn x Bombay, Rajah Betta’s “Bombay Club” sound fuses the indie dance vibe of Bombay with Brooklyn’s clubby sonics. From spinning at some of Brooklyn’s most iconic venues to hosting his radio show Betta Sounds on Newtown Radio - his sets are an experiment in the grimy, the tactile and the textured.

Straight outta Brooklyn by way of Bombay, Rajah Betta produces & curates what he calls “Bombay Club”. Formed from the clubby sonics of Brooklyn and the indie dance vibe of Bombay, his sound was born during his pilgrimage across the NYC club circuit - where he spent time speedrunning coveted venues like The Lot Radio, Elsewhere, Le Bain, Bossa Nova Civic Club, Mansions, Jupiter Disco, Mood Ring, House of Yes - to name a few. With his originals getting support from local Brooklyn heavy-hitters and international tastemakers like Daytimers - he’s geared up to push the sonic spectrum wherever he may roam.

This special mix for Filth is is built from a core breakbeat foundation and gets heavier, more percussive with every track. Designed as a mental workout for the senses - Rajah Betta’s mix explores everything from deep-dubby sounds to screeching breaks - all the while maintaining a sense of familiarity w/ his signature sound.

FILTH Invites: Episode 93 - Rajah Betta

The influence of Bombay sometimes comes through gently included but obviously present samples likely from film soundtracks, and other times through the subtle rhythmic inclusion of the bustling city streets into the percussive assembly. It creates a Bombay-meets-Brooklyn sound that Rajah Betta dubs as "Bombay Club". 

The Bombay-born and NYC-honed DJ, producer and radio host Sagar aka Rajah Betta is currently offering this fusion of geographic influences with an upcoming EP and an India tour that has made its way to Goa, Mumbai and Pune so far. Marking this movement with a Wild City mix, Rajah Betta's selections highlight his tendency to move through his influences. 

Distorted guitars of alt-rock slip into gritty basslines of club music before the focus shifts to more percussive numbers like Laksa's 'Tech Steppas' featured next to a standout deep cut '145bpm Percussive Brain Cleanse' by Joeti. By the time we reach Batu's 'Inner Space', the mix has fully and discreetly shifted for a dark, high-tempo second half – making its final stop in the gradually transforming but quick journey through contrasting styles.
