MirageVocals, composition : Anjana PadmanabhanLyrics: Vicky HajeriMusic arrangements: Siddhesh Srivastava Language: HindiGenre: Classical-fusionMood: RelaxingI am listening to Anjana Padmanabhan and thanks to a Spotify Playlist called "TuneCore: New Music Friday India", I came across this song. Hrishikesh Majumdar plays the flute solo in the intro and we get a glimpse of this classical fusion track within seconds. Here to give a Western touch are Siddhesh Srivastava on keys, Samarth Talia on bass, Harshil Gandhi on drums and Anjana's fantastic aalaps and ghamakas take us deeper into Raag Jog. This is a melody written by Anjana and all the instrumental arrangments by Siddhesh make this one festive treat.The swaras that Anjana delivers with break-neck speed, and the flute playing the same notes in the background is a highlight reel. The song deviates into another trajectory and probably moves away from Raag Jog when Anjana sings " Kaise Karoon". Manav Lakhani can be heard singing in the background as an additional vocalist. Kudos to Hrishkiesh who plays that breathtaking solo on the flute in the interlude and here we get the classical percussions like the Mridangam and Ghatam played by Ganesh Murli Iyer. This is a masterclass in singing, especially for youngsters looking for inspiration and wanting to perform as a classical vocalist, Anjana is immaculate. The outro with the Keys, flute, heavy drums, swaras and aalaap is a magical end to this inspiring track. The mixing and mastering is done by Prateek Kelkar. @anjanapadmanabhanofficial @ganeshmuraliiyer @samrthtalia @harshil.gandhi_music @siddhesh_62 @majumdar_hrishikesh2. DilshadVocals, Lyrics, Composition: Yawar AbdalMusic Producer: Akash GuptaAdditional Keys Production: Laksh SharmaLanguage: KashmiriGenre: Folk-PopMood: PathosYawar Abdal is a fine artist and I am fond of his Kashmiri indie work, his vocals being the Unique Selling Point. The Accordion and then his touching humming already have transported me into a good place. The Kashmiri lyrics are resonant with Paradise and they sound like a mom's lullaby when Yawar sings along with the gentle acoustic guitars in the background. Indrajeeth Handque plays all the guitars and bass and the stunning music production is by Akash Gupta.The female vocals now add fuel to the fire and when the lead vocalists perform together I am in tears, because of the fabulous notes written here. The strings section adds to the mild pathos and Akash is behind the synths, strings and horns programming. Indrajeeth stokes our deep emotions with his electric guitar solo in the interlude and Akash Gupta delivers a sensational performance on arrangements and production. Laksh Sharma handles all the additional key production with Akash on drums and percussion. This song will stay in my thoughts for a long time and although I don't understand a single word, the language of music does enough. The tracks are mixed and mastered by Laksh Sharma with vocals recorded at Crukces. Taha Firdous Shah does the translations.@yawarabdal @akashdrums @indrajeeth_handque @lok__fi @crukces @tahafirdousshah3.
