Kaali Duniya drops 10-track deep dubstep album confronting the caste system, ‘Babylon’s Camp’
The artist also known as Bamboy weaves a grimy, raw & unfiltered take on politics
Mumbai-based socio-political artist Kaali Duniya aka Bamboy has released his latest 10-track deep dubstep album.
Functioning as a sonic protest, the project confronts caste oppression and social inequities through sound.
This political urgency runs throughout the album’s dark, immersive atmosphere, while firmly retaining a South Asian identity rooted in bass culture.

Built on resonant sub-bass, shadowed textures and sound system-minded rhythms, the record captures the pressure and perseverance of life on the margins of a tightly controlled social order.
The weight of the caste system is felt not just thematically, but physically, through the album’s dense low-end and unrelenting tension.

Tracks like ‘Gatekeeper Assassinator’, ‘Vampire’s Empire’ and ‘Burn The Gates’ channel the rawness and emotion felt from Duniya, while cuts such as ‘Tokenism’ and ‘Marginalized’ slow the pace for a varied take.
Across the board, the listen is an introspective one, built on deep, brooding textures, motifs and instrumentations
