Soul wrekening , creatvely put together Ghazal in a unique way - well done 

This musical work belongs to Mr. Rohail Hyatt and I have nothing to do with this track, merely sharing because it is relatively unknown I think it needs the appreciation.

Rohail Hyatt ft. Zara Madani - Reunion

Introducing the world to our rich music, presented as the official soundtrack for the Pakistan Pavilion at the Dubai Expo 2020, here’s Lala-e-Sehrai for Pakistan.
 
This soundtrack is a contemporary adaptation to four distinct musical styles of Pakistan, highlighting the timelessness of our musical heritage. The track in its final form depicts a journey from classical, to folk and then Qawali. The traditional afternoon Raag Bhimplasi performed by Ali Akber, makes its way to Thari folk sounds drawn from the Tharparkar region, delivered by legendary Mai Dhai of Sindh, reaching a devotional hiatus featuring Ali Akber and Zain Zohaib Qawal. The track closes with the sounds of Pakistan; the motherland; its natural heritage from North to South, the cold mountain winds, ever-changing sky and renewed sea. The journey is encapsulated by the cloud-like vocals of Wajiha Naqvi and Zara Madani, and the recitation of Allama Iqbal by Arif Bahalim.

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.
