Manchester based 'Rzi Riz' releases his long awaited, debut single ‘Nachdi Tapdi’.
The single releases under the Desipride Records banner on 19 July 2017.
Lyrics are by Rzi Riz and music from GC Production.
Rzi Riz said: "The aim was to produce something with a UK urban bhangra party beat whilst still keeping desi roots alive using tumbi, dhol, dholak, drumkit mixed in with western music influences.
"It's very much an all-rounder kind of track keeping Bollywood in mind, as practically every film has a Punjabi party song included!
"This creates something which can be enjoyed by younger and older generations".
Being a British Pakistani artist, Rzi Riz has always enjoyed Bhangra/Punjabi music and has a passion for singing.
However, instead of taking the plunge into a vocal career, he opted to pursue his second passion and turned his attention to becoming a successful DJ.
Through this he would sometimes sing at events and often recieved praised for is endeavours. It was this support that motivated him to get back behind a mic and make his dream a reality.
Desipride Records have a number of upcoming projects with some well-renowned Pakistan-based artists such as Naseebo Lal and Noora Lal.
Nachdi Tapdi releases on the 19th July via iTunes, Amazon and other digital stores.
