The Bongolian is the multi-instrumental project of Nasser Bouzida. Indian Summer of Love is his seventh album and a colourful follow-up to 2020's Harlem Hipshake. This kaleidoscopic record fuses 1960s Indian psychedelia with the free-spirited energy of Haight-Ashbury to create a modern Belle Epoque for the 21st century. Bouzida's signature heavy rhythms and breaks anchor a lush mix of sitar, bansuri, flute, trumpet, saxophone and trombone, all performed by a stellar cast of international guests. Designed equally for the dancefloor and deep listening, this record is a rich, high-fidelity journey that bridges East and West through the unity of rhythm.
