The opening track of Charanjit Singh's 1982 album Synthesizing: Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat, recorded in Bombay. It plays Indian raga forms on a Roland Jupiter-8, TB-303 and TR-808 over a disco beat.
HN points to it as an early acid-style record that came before Chicago acid house, and as a way into ragas for electronic music fans.

I remember chasing down history of acid music online and discovering Charanjit Singh who created Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat in 1982: ▶ this video
Although weirdly preempted by an Indian record 'Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat' in 1982: ▶ this video This is what "the TB-303 bass synthesizer uses [the artist] to reproduce itself" means - you really couldn't use these tools without producing this music.
If you like electronic music and are interested in exploring the raga form, would recommend checking Charanjit Singh's 1982 album "Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat" ( ▶ this video )
