Besides spending more time Asia than at home in Brooklyn, 2006 so far has seen a Bombay Dreams on the road in the USA, a deconstructed tabla/dubstep DJ set in St. Louis, a smashed Turntablas on the Bayou party in Houston w/ Deep Singh and the Mahabeats, and recording session for J.lo 6 hours before heading out to Sri Lanka.
