Bass Foundation Roots Sound System is owned and operated by Delhi Sultanate and Begum X. It's hand-built and one of only a handful Jamaican style systems in all of South Asia.

They decided to build their own system so they could share the music they love with the sound quality and power that reggae music truly deserves and to be able to produce shows and have the freedom to organise events for people outside commercial and elitist club venues.

We joined BFR Sound System on a five day journey across India from New Delhi to the remote tribal village of Nanadisa in Assam to partner with Daniel Langthasa to host The Big Bang Festival of Love.

This two day music and culture gathering in the jungle hosted evening BFR sound system sessions alongside a music programme of local artists covering a range of genres including indigenous folk, hip hop and blues. There were also performances and workshops showcasing the cultural traditions of the local community and their relationship with the land.
