Rupa Sukla Biswas

Rupa Biswas is an Indian singer who is known for her singular Disco Jazz album.

Biography She was born as Sukla Biswas in 1955, in Malda Town, West Bengal, India.

The Khan brothers produced her first album Disco Jazz, which was completed in 1981 and released in 1982.

In 2014, Rupa's son, Debayan Sen, discovered an album inside his house in Kolkata, India. The album featured a picture of his mother, leading to the discovery of her buried musical career. On Google, Sen discovered that the album Disco Jazz was a rarity, selling at high prices on websites such as Discogs and was already viewed by millions on YouTube.

In April 2016, Fran Korzatowski, a music fan based in Albany, New York, identified the song "Aaj Shanibar" based on the Miss Lovely end credits and later uploaded it to YouTube. A few months later, Dan Snaith discovered Aaj Shanibar on YouTube and immediately selected it for his live DJ sets and radio broadcasts on NTS and Gilles Peterson's Worldwide FM. Since then, the album has been re-issued by The Numero Group, a well-established archival record label. The song has been used by Loewe in Paula's Ibiza 2020 advertising campaign and by Netflix in the television series Cowboy Bebop (2021).
