Pal D
 Pal
D’s introduction to the Bhangra industry came in October
'02 which saw the release of 'Danger 2' featuring a
hugely popular track produced by Pal D. The track
‘Boliyan’ - sung by Jagtar Sheri - was merely a taste of
what was to come.
In 2004 the track 'Panjabi Nara' was released on the
album 'The Usual Yardies'. This track featured the
vocals of Ranjit Mani and East London’s Aggi Dukes.
‘Panjabi Nara’ also made its way onto the North American
release of Aman Hayer’s mega-hit album ‘Groundshaker’
and was named in the top 100 Bhangra tracks of 2004 by
the BBC Asian Network.
Pal D released his debut studio album in 2006 titled
‘Standard Procedure’. This album was largely
under-exposed and led Pal D to take a short break from
what he perceived to be becoming a deteriorating
industry: the very public decline and condemnation of
un-credited sampling in the industry seemed to be
followed by a controversial, yet accepted trend of ghost
production.
2007 saw Pal D return to work on the track ‘Hor Pegg’
which will feature on the debut album by vocalist Bakshi
Billa – ‘Nachne Da Mazza’. This track has already
received a huge response and crowds all over the world
are patiently waiting in anticipation of its onslaught
on liquor-intoxicated dancefloors.
After 6 years spent lurking in the shadows of the
Bhangra industry, Pal D is set to unleash his 2nd studio
album this spring.
2 years in the making, Diamond in the Rough showcases
Pal D as a hypnotic composer, powerful vocalist and
logic-defying sound and mastering engineer.
Also featuring vocals by Lembher Hussainpuri, Surinder
Shinda, Bakshi Billa and Harvinder Bhinda (Golden Star)
- Diamond in the Rough introduces the biggest names in
the game to one who has undoubtedly been the most
promising and anticipated young producer in the UK for
over 6 years.
Having studied Kirtan and Tabla since 1993, Palvinder
Singh Dhupar takes the unusual step of debuting as a
Bhangra vocalist on Diamond in the Rough. These early
musical influences - which form the backbone of all Pal
D’s musical endeavours - are evident throughout the
album.
