Helium Project:
The definition of a band generally invokes the stereotypical image of a couple of people blaring out redundant rhythms and the ubiquitous love ballad. But sometimes all that’s needed is a few good men to spin a traditional concept into something refreshingly new.
It’s the incessant bass, screaming arpeggios and piercing percussions that truly define Helium Project. Their sound is all about paying homage to their first love, “Music”, and particularly about an explosive electronic experience. Perhaps just “electronica” could define the resulting product---but then, it isn’t about neat packaging. It’s about pushing the envelope and fusing influences to create a distinctive brand of urban Indian dance music. And that is exactly what Helium Project does.
Arijit excels in the genre of Techno & Progressive house, his gigs are usually laced with fantastic larger than life visuals and he handpicks the best produced tracks across the globe for his DJ Sets, this is an experience that you would cherish forever and a vice that you would crave to experience every moment! They have been providing the canvas for an array of that era’s house music.
Helium Project has been collaborating with Producers and Djs like UMEK, Azax Syndrom, D-Nox, Atmos, Breed aka Dj Nasha, AudioJack, Ankit Kocher aka Dj Ankytrixx, Tarun aka Boombaba, Kris Korrea from BBC, Dj Shiva Moon, AFM to name a few.
As collaborative production work flooded their studio their stock as a one of the best DJs in the country rose and so did their value as a key, if not crucial, remixer. Turning heads throughout the industry, Helium Project soon infiltrated numerous clubs across the country.
If you happen to visit Mumbai any given month and find a number of Helium Project themed throw-downs in the city’s esteemed venues, then you must not think twice before stepping in to their gigs. Like we mentioned – each of their gigs are as memorable as their last, same was the case when Helium Project did a Absolute Glimmer Launch Party at Athena in Bangalore which was a head turner for many in the city.
Fresh from his smashing opening set at Blue Frog for superstar Dj/Producer Azax Syndrom, Helium Project is reaching new heights with constant introduction of new styles and techniques in his live mixes along with his killer instinct for picking the best sounds and producers for his sets.
In the recent past Helium Project has been involved in the Rework of Liquid Dreams, slated to release in 2010 on Juno Records. Liquid dreams sounds like a classic, a blast from the past mix of pure progressive basslines with modern day Techno layers all the through.
Helium Project has been headlining a lot of recent live acts with a super Progressive Tech set to begin the year 2010 @ Blend in Chennai followed by some main room Grind-house sets at Zenzi Mills alongside AudioJack.
Helium Project teamed up with The TechnoBoy very recently for Fuga in Bangalore hugely supported by Submerge post which Helium delivered another smasher of set at Zenzi Mills for the Wall of the VJs.
It’s true that there are other likeminded DJ/Producers in the world comparable to Helium Project, but for the most part, they choose a genre and master it. Ask them to flip another variety of EDM with the same intense knowledge and sleek-savvy and you’ll be hard pressed to find someone that’ll do it to Helium Project’s extent.
Helium Project is venturing to new reaches in their quest to musical harmony. Tapping into their perfected take on a truly cosmic Progressive music to a sexy, stylishly accessible brand of House and dance music that is unique only to them.
Remaining a musician for the ages, Helium Project’s true successes happily await in the future. Won’t you come along for the ride?
