Talvin Singh, the tablatronic pioneer behind last year's critically acclaimed single "Jaan" [550k QuickTime] has been tapped to DJ and open all of the shows on Garbage's week-long club tour.

Singh scored the opening slot via Garbage lead singer Shirley Manson, who has listed "Anokha" as one of her favorite albums of 1997.

The Indian-born U.K. musician has worked with artists ranging from Björk to Sun Ra, and now Madonna has just sent Singh a batch of songs to remix from her "Ray of Light" album.

As we previously reported (see "Garbage Sets Itinerary For Club Tour As Video Premieres"), Garbage, whose new album, "Version 2.0," arrives in stores today, will launch its club tour on May 20 in San Francisco.
