DESCRIPTION:
Voted # 1 Drum N Bass / Dubstep DJ by MyFavDJ.in for 2009 - 2010, BBC (Bay Beat Collective) is Kris Correya, Sohail Arora & Raffael Kably

The Mumbai-based BBC (Bay Beat Collective) formed in response to the abundance of standard-issue electronica so commonly heard in clubs and bars across the country. A DJ collective currently consisting of Kris Correya (longtime resident DJ of Zenzi, Mumbai's most reputed club for experimental / underground music), Sohail Arora (DnB promoter & founder - KRUNK, the alternative booking agency) & Raffael Kably (Sound Engineer), the BBC's passion lies in drum & bass, breaks, dubstep, glitch, funk and minimal sounds. Visual Jockey Dooj adds another dimension to their sound with his innovation within visuals.

BBC explores new aural territory, dabbling in styles ranging from breaks to drum n bass glitch hop to dubstep, dark to funky and tech, with a partiality to "phat" basslines and high voltage grooves that are infectious, delicious & supremely funky. They've injected fun into a scene, which was mutating into an increasingly austere and po-faced arena. Their DJ sets continually re-affirm the potency of dancing the night away in a sweaty club, surrounded by like-minded complete strangers.

Previous Gigs include Sunburn Festival 2009 & 2010 & Giant Opening Sets for The Prodigy & Pendulum @ Invasion Festival, Jan 2011. BBC have also toured & played alongside some of the biggest Electronic Producers / DJ's like Asian Dub Foundation (U.K), Godfather of Drum N Bass LTJ Bukem / MC Conrad (U.K), DUB FX (Australia), Klute (U.K), London Elektricity (U.K) & DJ Marky (Brazil). In addition to this, BBC's first tour of Europe in August 2010 have put them on the World Map.

A prime time BBC show is a combination of high end and accessible musical generators like time coded vinyls, ableton synced laptops, midi controllers, projectors and even I-Phones.

The BBC are changing trends and inspiring newer players in India with regular packed alternative beat nights all over the country and are truly one of the emerging collectives of a much required alternative, intellectual order.
