DJ Kish “Electrician by Day, DJ by Night”Music has played a significant role in my life, assisted by the fortune of having two elder sisters, and listening to Bhangra and Bollywood. Throughout the decade of the nineties, my sisters ensured they were up to speed with the Indian music scene, through following Indian radio, participating in Indian nightlife and watching movies. This influence spurned and ultimately blossomed a passion for Indian music. I am proficient in the language of Sindhi, through everyday use at home since a young age. My Hindi was acquired through watching many Bollywood movies. I vividly recall travelling to India in my teens and relatives laughing and asking: You’re listening to Bhangra, but do you understand any off it?” The answer: no. Bhangra music was and remains my favourite type of music- but not because of the lyrics, but the musicality of it- the beats, the rhythm, the texture- all combining to give an unparalleled vibe. And, it is for precisely this reason, that I named my business “Indian Vibes Entertainment”.My complementary passion for R’n’B and Hip Hop began during high school. From the age of twenty, my DJ career took off. On NYE 2006, I made a request to the DJ for him to play some R’n’B and Hip Hop, as some of my friends desired a mix in music. I offered to bring some CDs, and he replied “Sure you can”. This was a wish that materialised. I always had a CD folder ready to go with a mix of R’n’B, Hip Hop, Bollywood and Bhangra. At the end of the night we exchanged business cards and two days later, I received a phone call: “Kish, do you want a job?”
