As soon as Tikki Masala first set foot on Indian soil, the rich flavours 

of authentic Indian classical music inspired him deeply. 

Dil Ka Desh (‘The Land of your Heart’) features recordings from across

India of bhajans, street musicians, fellow travellers, nature and temple 

sounds, which Tikki Masala, as his name already suggests – masala means

‘mixed spices’ in Hindi - fused with classical Indian instruments and his 

own eclectic blend of psychedelic, hypnotic electronic sounds, rhythms

and bass lines.
