Born in 1966, Delhi, India. Bally Sagoo is one of the godfathers of British bhangra beat, a fusion of contemporary influences with bhangra, the traditional Indian musical form. As a teenager he made mix tapes (which he sold to friends) and also DJed at parties. He took a Business Studies course at college, although music was still very much where his heart lay. At this point he started to experiment with Indian sounds, adding beats and raps to create his own cross-cultural fusion.
Sagoo's famous numbers like “Chura liya”, “Chandni raatein”, “Dil cheez”, “Noorie", "Aapki nazron ne samjha”, “O sathi re” and many more numbers from the golden eras of Indian cinema, appealed to the young folk as well as the older generation. Sagoo would pick the original numbers and would create rhythms on his turntable. He would also add new segments to the song, using acoustic guitars, flutes, violins, sometimes a whole orchestra.
