NEW ALBUM
Over the last few months Nitin has been busy in the studio writing and recording his new album Philtre. Philtre is a synonym for Magic Potion, and like the title, the new record promises to be a luscious blend of epic sounds, great songs, and deadly beats. The album features vocals by Taio, Jacob Golden, Vikter Duplaix, Sharon Duncan, Tina Grace, Reena Bhardwaj, Jayanta Bose and Fink, as well as two collaborative tracks with Spain's most exciting collective, Ojos de Brujo. You'll be able to hear 60 second streams from the new album well upfront of release within the next few weeks, so please keep checking the site for more info.
