 ELECTRO EAST / Saturday / Midnight - 2am - BBC Asian Network

 NERM brings you the heaviest alternative beats and bass from across
the underground every Saturday night into Sunday morning from
midnight - 2am

Tune into Electro East, the home of alternative experimental music,  as he brings you your weekly dose of Drum and Bass, Electronica,
Breakz, House, Asian darkness and Dubstep.

 DJ SWAMI TAKES OVER ELECTRO EAST!


Yes, this week's show (Saturday 29th August) Nerm is joined by a 'co-pilot' as Diamond aka DJ
Swami joins the show for an hour to discuss his musical heritage,  his experiments in music, evolving his sound from reggae, dub to
house, rave, guitars and alternative.

He plays you 3 tracks that have influenced and inspired his sound, 3
tracks of the sounds that excite him now and a badass exclusive  Electro East 20 minute mix of eclectic club centric sounds, guitars,
experimental and vocoder mixed with Bhangra and Bollywood - A unique
 mix, you'll never hear anywhere again!


Hear DJ Swami talk exclusively about his new project, the change in the sound of Swami to come, his Daft Punk and Prince story, getting
Mehbooba played in a hollywood blockbuster starring the Olsen Twins
and what inspired his musical journey.

Best quote of the show: "We can have great credible music which is
just OUR music, it's got nothing to do with waving an ethnic flag or
 anything, it's just great music and that's what inspires me right now"
