TransGlobal Underground are largely credited with being the first project to mix electronic beats with music from around the world. They're a U.K.-based collective, sometimes a live band, sometimes a studio project, sometimes a DJ crew with a mutual love for dance, avant-garde, Arabic, and world music and drawing on a variety of listening tastes and cultural backgrounds. Their first single, ‘Temple Head’ went top 40 along with their debut album, Dream of 100 Nations, released in 1994, their 7th album 'Moonshout' received a BBC World Music award. They've released 10 albums and a number of compilations and side projects since then. Currently they're a 5 piece live band, sometimes joined by original vocalist Natacha Atlas, but on record they work with a large team of international collaborators. www.transglobalunderground.net
