about

Kush Arora aka Only Now harnesses the project’s origins and evolution on ‘Fate / Will’, deploying expansive modes of drone set against surges of delirious percussion and spells of soundsystem magma.

Expanding on the echoes of Hindustani music on the Bokeh Versions release ‘Indian Unclassical Vol. 1’, Arora utilizes traditional instrumentation once again (including bansuri/algoze/chimpta), yet splits the difference with incursions of intensively processed, re-amped harmonium, the Turkish Zurna flute, field recordings and his own vocals. Longtime collaborator Dave Sharma contributes laser sharp duff to "Vengeance II".

Arora ends ‘Fate / Will’ with ‘Trance Return’, a long form live piece made for his performance in 2022 at the SF Electronic Music Festival.

The ’Fate / Will’ artwork is hand drawn in collaboration with Bryan Maita (BMS Illustration) – depicts the Only Now logo enmeshed in themes of primitivism, technological ambivalence, and the dialectical relationship between ideas of ‘the void’ and meditative states.

Only Now recommends:

Sanzala
by Fatigado

This is pure power, distilled through the perfect blend of raw kuduro, heavy industrial techno treatment, and unrelenting propulsion. Sinister, snakelike, and almost subliminal melody. Only Now

Cinereous Incarnate
by ABSTRACTER

catch contributions form Only Now/ Sutekh Hexen on this. Assuming their ultimate and ghastliest form, Abstracter return with their most astonishingly telluric, bleak, and hopeless album to date. Only Now

Mambos Levis D'Outro Mundo
by V/A

definite collection of some of the best and most refined Kuduro/Lisbon sounds out there. Some moments of pure beauty, and definitely the intro and more piano driven tarraxo joints are must listens. Only Now
