Exactly what it says. This man somehow anticipated acid house by 5 years.

Was he based in US?

@Calmsoul no, he was Indian and this album languished in obscurity until it was rediscovered in 2002

@SW-User ahann ..strange ... Never heard his music ..but sounds very Bollywood

SW-User

@Calmsoul actually he did Bollywood movie soundtracks I think but what makes this album interesting is that it uses the same equipment that became popular later with acid house producers, and so it sounds a lot like it.
