The Stay Home Travel Show: Episode 2, Kapil Seshasayee

Kapil Seshasayee is a polymath, both as a songwriter and as a sound-smith, creating something wholly unique. Combining electronica flourishes evoking FKA Twigs with Indian Classical guitar ornamentations, stunning vocals and a penchant for unorthodox instrumentation such as the aquaphone, Kapil manages to be truly experimental yet still accessible.

Virtually travel the world, with music purchased on Bandcamp.

Episode 2: With Kapil Seshasayee

Laila and I were lucky enough to meet Kapil at Solas Festival where he was performing in 2019. I'd not heard is music before, but was immediately transfixed and we ended up doing a gig in Brighton with him later that year. He also runs the website DesiFuturism

He picked a really dynamic selection of music for this episode, which reflects his own creative approach

Desifuturism.com is a new culture site curated by Scottish musician Kapil Seshasayee which celebrates forward-looking voices in South Asian culture through the mediums of literature, film, music, theatre & visual art outwith the commodification of a colonial gaze.
