Wow. We made it! It’s the final Pure Spice of the year - and what a ride it’s been. 2025 was a game-changer for Asian music, both in the mainstream and the underground. Manara’s bringing it all together, blending timeless classics with the tracks, remixes, and edits that defined this iconic year. Get ready to move to every corner of the desi club spectrum. Skank out to heavy Panjabi tunes like Bally-M & Double B’s jungle remix of JK & Tru-Skool and Future Recordings’ edit of Karan Aujla. Lose (and find) yourself in Raf Reza’s shimmering Bangla-dub masterpiece Mirror of Love. Vibe to Nadĩ’s Sugar Peak EP where tablas and qawwalis drift into UK funky perfection. Damn, 2025 truly was the year where producers flipped the script and turned the idea of Asian club music on its head. Manara’s also serving up her favourite homemade mashups of 2025, including that iconic Bolly-garage blend of B15 Project & Anu Malik’s Mera Piya Ghar Aaya - just call her Madhuri Mix-it. PLUS, the Shades On Mix drops like a pre shrinkflation box of decadent chocolates: all killer, zero filler and a flavour for everyone. Happy new year! Produced in Birmingham by Glenvale Media for BBC Asian Network.
