Editor's note

KSHMR builds cinematic electronic music from California.

A California DJ and producer whose sound blends progressive house with melodic layers drawn from Indian classical and hip-hop roots.

For a sense of his style, try 'Underwater' with Sonu Nigam or 'The Devil You Know.' They frame his melodic, festival-ready approach pretty well.

KSHMR's music carries a distinct atmospheric quality, hinted at by his moniker taken from the ancient kingdom of Kashmir. Tracks like 'Memories' with Bassjackers and Sirah showcase his knack for layered melodies and driving rhythms that fit the festival circuit. His 2014 breakthrough 'Megalodon' was noted for its cinematic scope, setting a tone for his output.

He broke through in 2014 with 'Megalodon,' establishing a sound built around progressive house and big room. In 2017, he faced plagiarism accusations over 'Secrets,' which he later acknowledged involved uncredited sampling. More recent tracks like 'The Devil You Know' with Micky Blue show his continued work in electronic music.
