KALA PHOOL is proud to announce the MI21 UK TOUR 2009.
MI21 (Mother India 21st Century Remix) is a live soundtrack performance.
The original film Mother India (1957) is a hugely important film in South Asian cinema, known for it's iconic imagery and powerful storyline: the common shorthand is to reference it as India's 'Gone With The Wind'
MI21 essentially remixes, re-edits and rescores the original 3 hour film into a 45 minute silent film over which lead artist DJ Tigerstyle has created a contemporary electronic and strings based score. DJ Tigerstyle who is one of the worlds top turntablists is accompanied by – Matt Constantine (keyboards/electric cello) and David Shaw (drums). Film edited by Josh Ford.
MI21 will be touring across the UK and at a venue near you.
Some of the venues will have additional special events alongside the performance including: extended DJ Tigerstyle set, post show discussion, film screenings.
