│ Fresh off a soldout show at the Knitting Factory in New │
│ York, this is the debut EP from new indie rock/electronic │
│ group Bamboo Shoots. │
│ │
│ Weaving rock vocals and guitars between street inspired │
│ beats and classical Indian percussion, Bamboo Shoots' │
│ Research and Development EP hypnotizes the listener like a │
│ snake charmer, making everyone from emo kids to hip-hop │
│ heads bounce. In the music, dizzying rhythms of tablas and │
│ high-pitched Hindi vocal samples find common ground with │
│ driving guitars and pulsating electronic beats. Many have │
│ compared the gritty culmination to Radiohead or Cody │
│ Chestnutt, with Garageband.com dubbing "This World is │
│ Beautiful" "The Year's Most Rockin' Track" and calling it │
│ "futuristic...very creative and thoughtfully done." Tracks │
│ like "Bombs" feature anguished vocals over soaring, │
│ scratchy guitars, while "Mountain Song" highlights a more │
│ melodic side, as voices harmonize over silky guitars and │
│ digitally chopped flute samples. The combination fits the │
│ song so well that one is led to question why Indian │
│ instrumentation and rock haven't been synthesized in this │
│ unique way more often. Bamboo Shoots started out as the │
│ collaboration of singer-songwriters Avir Mitra and Karl │
│ Sukhia in late 2002 as Avir was finishing a stint as the │
│ guitar player for Tabla Beat Scientist Karsh Kale (Six │
│ Degrees Records), performing regularly at venues such as │
│ Joe's Pub and SOB's in New York. From their home-based │
│ studios they set about writing and recording their debut │
│ EP, finding drummer Shiv Puri, bassist Phil Dehoux, and │
│ guitarist Tom Houston along the way. Now, Bamboo Shoots │
│ sets out on their most ambitious project yet: to bring │
│ together their diverse musical influences into a cohesive │
│ and original whole. │
│ │
│ Recently, Bamboo Shoots collaborated with VIBE Magazine │
│ (Feb. 2003) featured artist DJ Navdeep to create "Promised │
│ Land" and "September 12th", two crowd-favorite tracks on │
│ Navdeep's debut album. They have been featured and │
│ interviewed in Indie Top 20 as "Artist of the Week" and │
│ People's Weekly praised their musical style as "equal │
│ parts pop, ballad, rap and the music of South Asia", │
│ calling the songs "tuneful and memorable." The Courier │
│ Post newspaper featured Bamboo Shoots in an entertainment │
│ section front page story, they have been featured and │
│ charted on college radio stations across the Northeast US, │
│ and have been featured and interviewed on the BBC Asian │
│ Network in the UK. │

│ CMS was established in 1998 due to the fact that nobody was │
