How Charanjit Singh reimagined Indian classical music for the electronic age

Light In The Attic has reissued Charanjit Singh's 1982 album 'Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat', one of the earliest records built around the Roland TB-303, the bass synth later tied to acid house. The album drew little notice on release, but a rediscovery decades later made Singh a cult figure who played clubs and festivals late in his life. A new feature by Tara Joshi looks at the record's history.
