At the Beverly Hills Hotel in the year 2000, Rodney Lee and Satnam Ramgotra, greeted each other as they entered the wrong room for a "casual.. gig for diamond buyers. Rodney, behind a grand piano, and Satnam, with his tabla, discovered the harmonious nature of the tabla when fused with the piano. The concept of fusing the genres of Indian music and Jazz Piano was born and a year later Alien Chatter had begun.

.. We ask you to let go of any preconceived notions of what music is or should be, and sit back, relax and take a journey through the cosmos and listen to the Alien Chatter,.. says Satnam.

Their first album, Music for Aliens, made its debut in April, 2003 and received a positive response from both the Asian Underground musical movement and from the Jazz industry.
