About Rohit Shakya

Blending electronic beats with traditional Nepali sounds, Kathmandu’s own Rohit Shakya has quickly become a standout figure in the modern music scene. His work is known for atmospheric melodies and creative rhythms that feel both deeply local and globally relevant. Whether he is performing at major national festivals or dropping new tracks online, Shakya consistently pushes the boundaries of what electronic music can sound like in Nepal. His discography covers a wide range of moods, from the dance-ready energy of "Kathmandu Sahar" and "Aaja Janchu" to the calm, meditative textures of "Mellow" and "Himala ko Choro." His 2023 release, *Fikka lo-fi Mixtape*, and recent singles like "Aunla Haru" and "KATHA" highlight his growth as a producer. Beyond his solo work, Shakya is a frequent collaborator, having teamed up with artists like Sajjan Raj Vaidya, Trishala, and Phatcowlee to explore everything from soulful ballads to experimental hip-hop hybrids.
