Ah, the Midival Punditz. These boys are indeed family. That being said though, I met their music before I met their physical bodies. I find their music interpretive, emotional, evocative  ”“ soundscapes that make you move, songs that truly depict the youth consciousness of an India that I now call my home. I even choreographed to their track ”˜Chandni Chowk’ when I was dancing in a company in NYC years before they became a part of my friend family. It’s not enough to say that they are arguably the first Indian electronic outfit to bridge the gap between East and West seamlessly, elegantly”¦ though that’s 100 per cent true, in my opinion. It’s more important to say that these guys are urban pundits of sound, and two of my most favourite musicians in the scene today because they are genuinely artists. Artists who are constantly evolving, never truly satisfied, always discovering new envelopes to push, new buttons to create, new visions to realise”¦ like true learned men. They deserve every accolade they’ve garnered and more, and I trust we will see them rise even further than they already have.
