Business Class Refugees CD by Israeli duo Kartick & Gotam offers electro-folk, world music with strong influences of India.
Nowhere near home, Kartick & Gotam were traveling from South India to a remote village in Indonesia, on a journey through Asia recording indigenous music forms. An overbooked flight and unexpected luck landed them in business class luxury. In transit in Singapore, they applied for the visa to Indonesia, and the Special Permit to Aceh. It was to take three hours. Three days later, they were still waiting -- business class refugees without passports or identity -- sipping free champagne in the lounge or aimlessly roaming Singapore Airport… sometimes homesick, sometimes worried, but mostly, making music on their laptops.
Out of this “luxury limbo” was born Business Class Refugees, a global collaboration by music producer Kartick (Patrick Sebag) and sound designer Gotam (Yotam Agam). Their borderless electro-folk is a rich cross-cultural mix of global flavors, emotions, styles, languages - and irresistible grooves. Traveling the world, Kartick & Gotam collaborate with musicians who overlay local artistic interpretation and signatures onto K&G’s electronic sound. This album is inspired by where Kartick & Gotam’s journey began: India.
