DHANGSHA (Bengali for ‘destruction’) is the alias of sound artist and educator Aniruddha Das. He works at the interface of bass culture and experimental noise, creating turbulent scores where 'alien' motifs evolve over sparse but heavy beats and distorted bass. Aside from a stash of albums, he has contributed to compilations by Iklectik, Syrphe, Avon Terror Corps, Tusk Editions, The Wire, Industrial Coast, Hard Return and Nonclassical. Known for his visceral live sets, he has performed in the UK, Europe and Colombia. Aniruddha was recently appointed to teach in the Department of Electronic & Produced Music at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama.
