Biography

San Francisco based Kush Arora has produced uncompromising underground music for 19 years in disparately different circles. Whether he’s making Indo Caribbean dancehall, reworking kuduro, or creating ambience, his signature sound traverses genre lines and connects dots few dare to combine. Influences can be heard from Buraka Som Sistema to Wax Trax Records and haunting film soundtracks peppering his project Only Now. Definitions can only describe so much, Only Now’s roots lie with unbridled experimentation and a wall of sonic low end.Kush has been featured in The Wire, The Quietus, Spin Magazine, Fact Magazine and countless outlets for his work in the bass, dub, dancehall, and Indian music scenes. His remixes and collaborations span artists as diverse as Balkan Beat Box to Gappy Ranks. 
 As Only Now he’s released many EPs, with 2017 sharing “Timeslave” from Mexico City’s Infinite Machine and “Elements” on France’s POLAAR label. Only Now’s performance highlights include playing alongside Kode 9, Dj Lag, MUTEK SF, Shambala Festival (CA), Low End Theory, SXSW.
