'Syntheshwara' signifies the intelligence that resides in all electronic music equipment. In 'Roots Vol. 2', the Bangalore based artist and beatmaker invokes this 'deity of sound and synthesis' which he created for his own home studio: "the Temple of Sound", and explores an interesting sonic space by sampling mesmerizing Indian melodies over laid-back beats. His 'workflow' truly lives up the to 'flow' part of the word, as the entire album was done in 24 hours, in one take, with no re-edits or re-arrangements. The ‘Roots’ series is equivalent to a refreshing dip in a lake, or a peaceful trek in the mountains.

Zen Baboon’s latest release Hidden Frogs is an aural bouquet of sublime harmonies, tantalising melodies, caressing ambiences and silky beats, all of which present to us a perfect paradox of flawless glitchy goodness. Tiptoeing between classical glitch, trip-hop, chillout and techno, all with a subtly psychedelic touch as mild yet seductive as a micro-dose of Lucy on a warm summer’s day in nature, the music occasionally evokes feelings that are reminiscent to traversing through Parisian rues or a quaint Lisbon alley in an alternate sur-reality. Zen Baboon’s work has always been one of a kind, rich in feeling, spontaneous, sentimental, sympathetic and with a strong storytelling sense. This record is no different as you are anachronistically transported through several layers of nostalgic moods and musical topographies that leave you enamoured by this delightful musical courtship.
