By the late 80's Osmani Soundz began experimenting mixing new soundz combining Hip hop with Techno and fused with classical Indian Bengali folk and other world sounds.

By 1994 Shohid (Osmani Soundz) had created the very first Asian Drum and bass track titled “ Spiritual Masterkey ” featured on the cultural fusion CD released as a community music project.

Shohid re-edited “Spiritual Masterkey” for the Anokha - Soundz of the Asian Underground album (1996) compiled by Talvin Singh . This lead on to him representing the Anokha sound as a resident Dj at the legendary weekly Anokha Sessions at the infamous Blue note – Hoxton.
Moving on from the Blue note the crew continued the global journey at The Calcutta Cyber Cafe at the Vibe Bar pushing forward experimental/Abstract / eclectic sounds in an interactive environment. Osmani Soundz continued his residency at Anokha when it moved to the End Club, Fabric and 93 Feet East.

Osmani Soundz supported Talvin after having won the Mercury music Award. He Dj-ed at the only 'Ok' Album live performance at the Barbican centre working alongside Bill Laswell, Karsh Kale, Ryichi Sakamoto, Cleveland Watkiss, Shankar Mahadevan, Ustad Sultan Khan, Mukul and Equal - i. He has opened for the Turner prize at the Tate Britain and has recently composed music for Vena Rampal's - The City Dreams contemporary dance performance performed at the Trafalger Square festival 2004/5 and completed 3 remix's for Nitin Sawhney's 'The Search'.
