Genres

Hailing from Brooklen via Assam, northeast India (with Australia, Thailand and South Africa in between — this man certainly gets around), singer and bandleader jitwam is a man of many layers, all of which are funky. Following the sensual tracts of D’Angelo and Prince, Honeycomb is a prism through which hip hop, RnB, soul and funk coalesce into luxuriant tracks like ‘Temptations’, a funk guitar number so horizontal yet so classy.

Press Release

Musical powerhouse jitwam invites listeners back into his colourful world with the Deluxe Edition of his hit album HONEYCOMB, marking five years since its release. Featuring a fresh art direction and behind-the-scenes photography taken from the Mumbai-filmed music video to “busstop”, the Deluxe Edition is a true collectible item. Inside the vinyl cover, a download code gives fans access to all 20 digital titles, including a remix package by Max Graef and Glenn Astro and three new ambient versions of HONEYCOMB tracks by jitwam himself.

Originally released in 2019, HONEYCOMB quickly sent ripples through the music scene, garnering rave reviews from around the world. Across 12 tracks, jitwam masterfully fuses his musical identities, incorporating warm guitar riffs, smooth basslines, and lyrics about the comforting chaos of urban life in India.

“HONEYCOMB is a universe where rock ‘n’ roll meets soul, where the blues sing techno, and jazz can be anything you want it to be...” jitwam explains. With his roots in Assam, India and a diverse upbringing in Australia, Thailand, and South Africa, jitwam has made a name for himself with his soul-soothing sound that transcends borders and genres. On his journey, he’s worn several musical faces, within the world of psychedelic indie rock, the hip-hop realm, and underground house music. His fluidity as an artist has earned him a place in the rich lineage of Indian composers, fusing disparate styles and ideas into a world that is truly and uniquely his own.
