It's a sad day for the music industry. RIP ❤️ Tarsem Singh Saini Taz AKA Johnny Zee Stereo Nation, credited with being the pioneer of cross-cultural Asian fusion music, passed away peacefully at a hospital earlier this evening. It's difficult to believe that dear Taz is no longer with us. Back in the 1990s, I grew up listening to this song on a cassette player. I still remember all of his song lyrics and the music he composed for people. While seeing his interviews, TV shows, and songs, I can't stop crying. Total shock and sadness at losing someone a lot of us have grown up listening to, and someone who brought something different to the table!! The ‘Back To My Roots’ EP has got to be one of the best U.K. Bhangra EPs ever released, and ‘Hun Taan Mein Nachna" is one of the most iconic songs from his debut album ‘Hit The Deck’ which released in "1989’, on the ‘Audiorec’ label. Not just a singer, but also a music producer, Taz produced the music for Sahara’s - ‘Let Loose’ album, as well as Safri Bhaji’s ‘Bomb The Tumbi Remix’ album, amongst others. One of the handful of U.K. Bhangra artists who truly made it big in Bollywood, and also carved a niche for himself worldwide. A massive loss to the U.K. Bhangra industry and the Punjabi music industry in general 🙏🏽 My condolences go out to all his family, friends, & fans worldwide. 🙏 May his soul rest in peace. #RIP #tazsteronation #taz #steronation
