About

Handcrafted music, made for the moment.

Shriram Sampath playing the bansuri Swarupa Ananth with her tabla

Filter Coffee is an Ethnotronic collaborative of flautist Shriram Sampath and percussionist Swarupa Ananth. Classically trained, they combine virtuosic improvisation with electronic soundscapes and hypnotic grooves, a sound shaped over nearly two decades on festival stages from London and Berlin to Bali and Australia, and on their album Raagatronic.

Every performance is composed for the occasion: the ritual, the room, the time of day and the people in it. The result is music that feels classic and personal, and nothing like regular background instrumentals.

Today we focus on weddings, private celebrations and corporate evenings.

Bespoke events

Curated for your celebration.

Tell us about your event and we'll shape the music around it: the repertoire, the length, the line-up and the mood, from a single ritual to a full evening.

Weddings

Pheras with live chants, welcome lunches and dinners, sundowners and receptions. Each piece is chosen for the ritual or moment it accompanies.

Corporate events

Launches, networking evenings and private client dinners. Music that adds polish to the room and lets conversation flow, or a headline set when you want the stage.

Festivals & private stages

The full live show, for an audience that's there to listen. Improvisation, electronic textures and grooves.
