What then do we learn about our own future metropolis?

The DJ, who has been featured on reputable networks such as CNN, created a major buzz in 1997 with her conception of the Basement Bhangra party series!

The project has been on the whole very well received at all social and economic levels in Kinshasa.
On August 14, 2006, Dikembe donated $15 million to the completion of the hospital for its ceremonial opening on September 2, 2006. The hospital was by then named Biamba Marie Mutombo Hospital, named for his late mother, who died of a stroke in 1997. When it opened in February 2007, the $29 million facility became the first modern medical facility to be built in that area in nearly 40 years.

At the Hammerstein Ballroom, NYC. With The Dhol Foundation, Bikram Singh, Panjabi MC, DJ Rekha and more Most club events in the city are shorter-lived than mayflies. But the dance party known as Basement Bhangra seems to have the shelf life of Twinkies. It just goes on and on.
Basement Bhangra – which normally fills S.O.B.’s on Wednesdays with its patented fusion of South-Asian, hip hop and dance music – will celebrate its 10th anniversary tonight. It will do so in a space four times its normal capacity: Hammerstein Ballroom (34th St. between Seventh and Eighth). The basic bhangra style has roots in percussive folk music from the Punjab region of India and Pakistan. But it didn’t find a modern voice until the 1980s, when British kids of Punjabi descent began mixing the thwacking tabla sound with elements of house, soul and rap.
