Review: The house scene in India has grown massively over the past 10 years or so, and there's arguably no one who's done more to drive that growth than Wind Horse Records boss Hamza Rahimtula. Now Selekta Recordings bring us his debut full-length under his real name, which packs 11 fairly straight-up deep house and disco jams - so be aware that if you're looking for sitars, bhangra beats, vocal ragas or Bollywood samples, you're out of luck (try Todh Teri). Easily the equal of anything coming out of Chicago, Detroit, the UK or Berlin, if there's any justice then 'Groove Guru' should be the album that really puts Hamza - and, by extension, the whole Indian scene - on the world house map.
