Dread Culture: “I’m trying to bridge the gap between Africa and South Asia…through rythmn and melodies.“

Satyarth Gurazada is the one-man creative powerhouse behind Dread Culture, which is part of India's small-yet-growing Afrobeat and Reggae music scene.

Growing up as a Kenyan of Indian descent, Satyarth listened to the likes of Bob Marley and Fela Kuti from a very young age. Today, as a pan-African believer living Bangalore, Satyarth is trying to bridge the gap between the continent of his birth and the region he now calls home--through music. He is driven by a conviction that music can be instrumental in social movements such as anti-racism and anti-casteism, and is trying to carve the way for his very own sub-subgenre, "Afro-carnatic" music. Listen to his chat this week with Yasmin.
