Dark post-pop meets mystic muse, Arooj Aftab's Bird Under Water undulates and scintillates. A masterful expression of lyrical and acoustic soul tripped out through analog voltage and experimental digital filters.

05 Na Ja Balam Pardes

04 Baghon Main Pade Jhoole

01 Man Kunto Maula

Sun is an island of organised chaos. Ek jagah hai jahai do log saath mein gaana gaate aur bajaate hai, to find reason for the things happening around us.
These are fairytales which neither happened once upon a time, nor in an unnamed land far, far away. A simple line of practical advice that Nirgun poets have been singing through generations. 

A new format for these nouveau-fairytales, which teach us to stop looking out for material possessions, but rather, look deep within our souls to find the meaning of beauty. Beauty that we fail to see amid the turbulent storm, which passes eventually, giving way to rain, that possess the power to blossom the most beautiful gifts, without which our song remains incomplete.

Basanti Aur Rahza - Sun

Lyrics

Eri Sakhi More Piyā Ghar Aaye
Bhāg Lage Is Aangan Ko
Apne Piyā Ke Main Bal Bal Jāun
Charan Lagāyo Nirdhan Ko

Eri Sakhi More Piyā Ghar Aaye

Main Toh Khadi Thi Aas Lagāye
Mehndi Kajrā Māng Sajāye
Dekhi Suratiyā Apne Piyā Ki
Hār Gayi Main Tann Mann Ko

Eri Sakhi More Piyā Ghar Aaye

Jiskā Piyā Sang Beete Sāvan
Us Dulhan Ki Raen Suhāgan
Jis Sāvan Mein Piyā Ghar Nāhi
Aag Lage Us Sāvan Ko

Eri Sakhi More Piyā Ghar Aaye


ऐ री सखी मोरे पिया घर आए
भाग लगे इस आँगन को
अपने पिया के मैं बल-बल जाऊँ
चरन लगायो निर्धन को

ए री सखी मोरे पिया घर आए

मैं तो खड़ी थी आस लगाए
मेंहदी कजरा माँग सजाए
देख सूरतिया अपने पिया की
हार गई मैं तन मन को

ए री सखी मोरे पिया घर आए

जिसका पिया संग बीते सावन
उस दुल्हन की रैन सुहागन
जिस सावन में पिया घर नाहि
आग लगे उस सावन को

ए री सखी मोरे पिया घर आए

Mat Kar Maaya Ko Ahankaar - Kabir Song from Malwa, Madhya Pradesh

The verdant landscapes of Kaziranga set the stage for this collaboration between Angaraag 'Papon' Mahanta and Rabbi Shergill in Episode 6. The former is a native of the state, and revered for introducing an entire generation to ancient folk melodies. The latter introduces his Sufi-tinged, intrinsically Punjabi sound for a memorable collaboration.
