Bazaar Records has been the brainchild of
Dippa Somal for many years. Spending years
promoting nights and artists in a variety
of capacities and frustrated by the lack of
genuine talent breaking through, he decided
it was time for a new label. Bazaar is a young,
progressive label that refuses to tie itself
down in roads already travelled.
‘Raw As Folk’ is the first release of the
much hyped-about, much talked about Bazaar
Records and features music from the mighty
Tru Skool with vocals being graced by Bazaar’s
very own Kaka Bhaniawala, Kulwinder Johal,
Gurbhej Brar and Dippa Dosanjh (Satrang).
The album contains 9 mind blowing tracks to
suit every mood featuring lyrics from the
legendary ‘Dev Thrikewala.’
In a fresh and modern twist, Bazaar has created
a mega-collaboration and features all of the
mentioned artists in one massive boliyaan
– ‘Battle Boliyaan’.
The album is a the pinnacle of many years
in the making of Bazaar where traditional
roots have been fused with modern and eclectic
Asian and world beats to produce a new wave
of music- the Album compromise of raw east
cost hip hop beats with traditional Panjabi
folk.
There’s also a special surprise vocals from
Tru Skool that features in the album and those
who know about the music will really appreciate
this one!!!
There will be launch parties for the release
of the album and for the announcement of Bazaar
as a major player on the scene happening all
over the UK. Look out for the events because
Bazaar knows how to put on a bash!
The album is titled ‘Raw As Folk’ which is
due for worldwide release in June 2007.
