Diwali Night 2007

  • Share:

Get your bhangra on
by Suzy Stump
Nov 08, 2007

OK, class, raise your hand if you’re down with the bhangra sound. Better yet, throw both your hands in the air and give ’em a slick flick at the wrist in your best approximation of the Punjabi party-down style.

If you’re digging the North Indian dance floor thunder of bhangra — DJ Burn and DJ Styxxx sound that takes the big boom of the dhol drum and the needling treble riffs of the stringed tumbi, then amps them up electronically into a ferocious frenzy of fun — you’ll dig Diwali Night 2007 Saturday night.

Burn and Styxxx of Veera Productions will blend bhangra and hindi with hip-hop for a night of Bollygood. — Suzy Stump
