ABXMusic: The Rhythmic Rise of Amrut Sawant from Mumbai’s Streets to the Stage
In the ever-evolving soundscape of India’s independent music scene, one name is creating waves with nothing but the power of his voice—Amrut Sawant, better known as ABXMusic. Based in Mumbai, Amrut is a self-taught beatboxer, music producer, and content creator who began his artistic journey in 2013 during his 12th grade. What started as a spark of curiosity quickly evolved into a full-blown passion, transforming him into a powerful presence in the live performance circuit.
The Beat Begins
Amrut’s initiation into the world of beatboxing was anything but conventional. With no formal training, he relied on observation, experimentation, and relentless practice. A pivotal moment came when he discovered WAWAD, a renowned beatboxer from France. Watching WAWAD's performances became a source of both education and inspiration, pushing Amrut to explore the endless possibilities of the human voice.
Signature Style: Freestyle Meets Hip-Hop
What sets ABXMusic apart is his signature style—a raw, high-energy freestyle beatbox laced with hip-hop undertones. His performances aren’t just a series of sounds; they’re structured, groovy, and immersive. The spontaneity of his rhythm mixed with street-style swagger brings an element of unpredictability that captures the crowd's attention every time.
Performing with Purpose
Unlike many creators whose work remains behind the scenes, Amrut thrives in front of a live audience. One of his proudest achievements was performing beatboxing at a recent boxing championship, blending the physicality of sport with the vocal power of rhythm. These crossover collaborations are a testament to his creative versatility and his desire to constantly evolve.
Currently, ABXMusic is working on exciting collaborations that merge beatboxing with other art forms like flute and singing. These projects represent his belief that beatboxing can transcend its perceived limitations and coexist with more traditional sounds to create something truly unique.
Inspired by Places, Driven by People
For Amrut, inspiration is all around—in the people he meets, the places he visits, and the sounds that fill the world. His creative process is grounded in exploration and repetition. Every day brings something new, and he treats each beat as a new opportunity to grow.
Despite facing challenges, especially around visibility and recognition in a niche art form, Amrut’s mantra is simple yet powerful: “Just practice.” There are no shortcuts, only the grind, and that’s where true artistry is born.
A Vision Larger Than Life
Amrut dreams big. One of his biggest aspirations? To see his name—"ABX"—lit up on a giant billboard, a symbol not just of fame, but of validation for an art form that still fights for mainstream space in India. And he’s not waiting for a lucky break. He’s creating his own path, one beat at a time.
A Message to Fellow Creators
ABXMusic’s journey is a masterclass in self-belief and perseverance. His advice to aspiring artists is straightforward and authentic:
“Just do it. Don’t worry about views, likes, or trends. Keep creating. Keep grinding. One day, your moment will come.”
Through his art, Amrut doesn’t seek to preach. Instead, he performs to showcase the power and uniqueness of beatboxing, hoping that when people hear him, they see the depth and impact of this often-underestimated art form.
Follow his journey and witness the rise of a voice that doesn’t just make music—it makes a mark.
