Music artist, DJ, Producer and Mentor Sweety Kapoor began making music & DJing on Brick Lane as a teenager. She co-founded the club Anokha, which was the centrifugal force at the centre of the Asian Underground musical movement. Run by her alongside Mercury Prize Winner Talvin Singh at its creative control panel it was the place that actually named the “Asian Underground” via its seminal compilation “Soundz Of The Asian Underground”. Mixing up the cream of the emerging DJ scene alongside killer live performances from the main musical protagonists behind it, it became more than a club, and more than a musical space. For many of us, myself included, it was a full on lifestyle. Historical moments included live performances from Talvin Singh & his tablatronics, State Of Bengal AKA Sam Zaman using it as a space to showcase his genius & people like David Bowie & Bjork coming & dancing with the crowds. Some DJs who I danced to there included DJ Pathaan, Equal I, Ges-E & Osmani Soundz from The Nasha Experience & Earthtribe
