“Kolkata is a city where everyone's a little bit laid back and relaxed, they like their evening siestas and they like to eat they like to relax a lot, there are people working there are people working very hard but what's really nice is just the fact that that's what is the baseline for the city means, that it's a really good ground for musicians who want to do experimental work, we have the space and the time to sort of just open out and try stuff...” - Rivu Subhagata Singha.
