The eponymous debut album from MIDIval PundtZ (Gaurav Raina and Tapan Raj) finds the duo staking out a unique place in the Asian Underground movement. Their sound is something of a contradiction: very tight and clean, but at the same time cinematic and rich. Like others associated with the Asian Underground, they draw deeply on the double-speed breakbeats of jungle and drum and bass, interweaving the beats with samples of traditional Indian instruments and vocalists, but the hard edge and digital clarity of their sound creates an instantly recognizable vibe.
