Vindya

We are welcoming the London-based Vindya. As a researcher of percussive ritual music from both Sinhalese and Tamil traditions in Sri Lanka, it comes as no surprise that as an electronic artist, Vindya identifies with the vastly repetitive, rhythm-focussed and hypnotic techno sound. Prior to carving out a name for herself across London and Manchester's techno parties, Vindya trained as a classical composer, a practice she continues to nurture as a means of expressing her Sinhalse-Tamil identity. Her early years as an electronic artist have led her to fill iconic dancefloors across the continent, including FOLD, Printworks, SET, The DBA, Fuchs and Harry Klein, with many of her mixes paying homage to her Dutch-born roots.
