He began his music career in 70's as opening for groups like Fleetwood Mac, Lou Reed and Ry Cooder.

There he met Deva Premal and encouraged her to sing. Together they recorded pieces for compilations entitled generally as Music From the World of Osho.

Miten's music is focused on a spiritual path and meditation. The style is generally pop/rock with elements from all over the world. His songs and lyrics are joyful and sensual. He records solo albums but on every album his wife Deva Premal sings with him, whether she is mentioned as co-artist or not.
