Baalti

Baalti is an American electronic duo whose productions bring South Asian melodic phrasing, vocal samples and percussion into deep and downtempo house frameworks. The pair build tracks around warm, filtered grooves and material drawn from South Asian film and folk recordings, an approach that connects their club output to a specific diasporic listening history. They release music and perform as DJs, and are part of a wider group of South Asian artists working in dance music in the United States.
