Anish Kumar is a London-based DJ and producer from Washington in the Northeast of England who blends house, disco, and South Asian sonic influences. He broke through with the 2021 underground hit Blackpool Boulevard, a collaboration with Barry Can't Swim on Ninja Tune's Technicolour imprint, which earned support from Pete Tong and Danny Howard. His prolific output includes the Bollywood Super Hits EP, the mixtape A Mixtape by Anish Kumar, and ongoing series AK Cuts, with acclaim from Four Tet, Daphni, and Bonobo. Kumar favors sample-based productions rooted in house and disco traditions while resisting overpolished arrangements, pulling inspiration from jazz, hip-hop, and Bollywood. He has performed at Panorama Bar in Berlin and major UK venues including Warehouse Project and Printworks.
