“At last, a serious desi band who all play their instruments and can hold their own in the live arena! Like George Clinton having a party with Mohammed Rafi in an illegal Mumbai drinking den...its a party everyone wants an invite for!”
— Bobby Friction, BBC Asian Network
“Botown at the Jazz cafe were brilliant! A tight and funky band with a warm and rapturous crowd! We look forward to their return.”
— Jazz Cafe
“Botown will take you back to the days of brilliant live gigs with its talented live musicians who bring out the funkier side to Bollywood classics.”
— Eastern Eye
“Asian soul and funk outfit Botown have taken a bunch of Bollywood's best-loved anthems and given them the 'Shaft' treatment; re-styling the compositions with Seventies-era Isaac Hayes and Curtis Mayfield very much in mind. Tracks such as Laila and Jhalak have the sort of vintage grit that soundtracked Blacksploitation cops and robbers, but frontman Ajay Srivastava's Hindi singing bursts with feeling, putting Botown way above the usual kitsch-athon this sort of thing often descends into. Elsewhere, Jamaican influences seep into the mix. ”
