#Review Josiah Ranpal is a guitarist from Gangtok, Sikkim, who runs a jazz fusion and jazzcore project called That’s Not Self Help. His music is inspired from a wide pool of influences including Mahavishnu Orchestra, John Zorn, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Mr Bungle, King Crimson and Miles Davis. He started the project with a self-titled three-track demo built on dissonance, improvisation and hardcore-informed riffing.

His latest EP, The Mist Feeds on Waiting, is about time and the act of waiting. The longer you wait, the more the strangeness of life reveals itself. Philosophically, it draws from that uneasy, familiar-yet-unsettling feeling you’d associate with David Lynch. Sounds interesting isn’t it? Keep reading to know more about his new EP.

#SCXNECuts :
From Sikkim, @thatsnotselfhelp builds music out of whatever was around when he started, jazz at home, punk in the scene, and everything in between.

Now on his third EP The Mist Feeds On The Waiting, the sound leans into time, unpredictability, and everything that doesn’t resolve cleanly.

The Mist Feeds On The Waiting (EP) streaming now on all major streaming platforms! Go check it out.

Indian guitar scene has started to move away from bollywood, rock and blues based songwriting and using the guitar as both a storytelling and textural tool.
Whether it be deathcore inspired shred or far out jazz fusion chops,these 3 artists are pushing the boundaries in every sense.

Demo is out on the @deathmadnessdm youtube channel. Four songs of raw, unfiltered, good ol' fashioned, old school death metal.

Big thanks to @lawrencelyngdoh for tracking drums on these songs. Couldn't have done it without him.
And @ugliesart for the sick cover art.
Also, shout out to @josiah_pajji of @harrowing_dearth and @thatsnotselfhelp for shredding a sick solo on the track Ionized Obliteration.

Check it out and get some merch. Link in bio.

The prodigious @josiah_pajji of @thatsnotselfhelp and I have been in conversation for quite some time now, and a collaboration between the both of us was inevitable. I didn’t think that this conversation would evolve into something collaborative, but here we are with our first video - the first of, hopefully, many.
Song: Because he Lives by Bill and Gloria Gaither

Do check out @thatsnotselfhelp where Josiah’s prowess as a musician and composer shines through, in what is probably one of the most far-reaching musical projects conceived in India.
