Karsh Kale (pronounced Kursh Kuh-lay), producer, composer and musician, melds the music of his Indian heritage, with the modern electronic club music of his American upbringing. Kale is creating a unique blend of Indian percussion with techno music and drum & bass. Kale's compositions are often strident, loud, and dense with energy; heavy on the percussion and more instrumental than vocal. In style of Indian Fusion he is closer to Talvin Singh or Ananda Shankar than Bally Sagoo or Bill Laswell.

Kale is also a member of Tabla Beat Science, an "Asian Underground" type of group. He has collaborated with world-known phenomenons such as the Madras Cinematic Orchestra and various tabla masters, like Zakir Hussain. One of his most famous compositions was entitled "Milan", named after his daughter, who's Sanskrit name means "meeting of two rivers".

Kale is prolific, seemingly willing to lend a hand, and drum, to almost anyone from Herbie Hancock to DJ Spooky. He has become a mainstay in Six Degrees Records' ever expanding series of compilation CDs having appeared on six so far.

His songs "Distance" and "One Step Beyond" are included into the "samples songs" of Windows Vista.
