Thunbam Nergayil (Carnatic Fusion: Raag Desh) - Bharadwaj | Durai Srinivasan | VIDEO LINK BELOW

Project YUJ has faithfully and authentically bridged the gap of the Western and Indian traditions through their brand of music, Neo-Carnatic Funk. YUJ's command of style allows the band members to effortlessly shift gears and steer the course into the unknown, flanked by novelty and technique to burn. From the slick modern arrangement of Deekshitar's classic kriti “Mahaganapathim”, to the upbeat montunos of “Maputo”, to the korvais of  “Reethigowla Blues”, all the way to the Flecktones - inspired, “Banjo Rumble”, the album consistently surprises and changes course, keeping the listener surprised, guessing and eager for more. If the maiden voyage holds this much promise, the future looks bright.

01 Mahaganapathim (Muthuswamy Deekshitar Kriti Re - Arranged)

"The carnatification", a carnatic musical presentation on a electric guitar is what makes the album entirely different from the others in the market. The  carnatification is nothing but CARNATIC MODIFICATION . The album is filled with pure essence of carnatic music of highest order, comprising of high standard and popular krithis by the greats such as muthuswamy dikshidar, thyarajar, periyaswamy thooran , patnam Subramaniayam Iyer, madurai mani Iyer and purandaradasar. And as a highlight have my first composition too, a peppy ragamalika number. 
               
                   THE UNIQUENESS 

               The album is distinctly unique for the style of playing with double octaves , harmonies, and artificial harmonies and highly grooved swara sections which are completely new to the audience of carnatic. . I LL assure it to be a youth favorite because of the electric guitar factor and the recording quality and the brand names in the album.

              BIG SHOTS IN THE ALBUM

            THE CARNATIFICATION  has some real big names who are currently at the peak in the carnatic feild. I have been accompanied by my dad and percussion maestro Prapancham Ravindran on the mridangam , kanjira maestro B.S.Purushottam and hugely reputed DR.S. Karthick on the Ghatam. The 3 rhythm heroes have provided some brilliant grooves with the electric guitar , thus making it sound epic.

Just happened to record my cousin Usha do an impromptu rendition of Krishna Nee Begane Baaro in the style of T Balasaraswathi - slow tempo and expressive. So I have kept the arrangement quite minimal. The raga is Yaman Kalyani

Jagajannani : Carnatic Song in ragam Rathipathipriya Feat Shyam Murali

Earphones please :D 

One of my favourite songs in the world :) Extremely beautiful. Was thinking of recording this for a long long time. Majorly have gone for the feel of the song, as I wanted to try some freestyle, but I believe it has come out very beautifully in just one take. Do follow, like, comment, repost, share :)

Here is my short description on the song: A mom sings to her boy and says please come fast my child and show me your face. The boy is Krishna. Then she goes on describing the great feats her son has achieved. Now the words say fast, "come krishna come fast", that is what the first line means. And one may surely argue that this must be sung fast and not slow. But I feel the description that comes afterwords suggests that the mom is actually describing her child also, which actually puts forth the question, is she in a hurry? So, is the word fast, just a way of showing her yearning to she her boy? Would you praise your child when you are desperate to see him? I dont think so. People may also say, during the first line the mom is just seeing whether her son is there. When the statement repeats again, however, she actually wants him to come and when it repeats again, she wants him "there" and so on (This is surely a good way to look at any song as it leads to lot of musical exploration ). This is portrayed musically by adding more gamakas, where the note stops, volume e.t.c. e.t.c. Though analysis is a good way to look at music, analysis is not music. Music is just what you feel that day. Sometimes an entire day you can be yearning to see your child and not be angry at him or anything, that is what I try to portray in my version. PS. It is so much fun singing Yaman Kalyani, slow :)  



Krishna Nee Begane Baaro : Carnatic Vocal

Manavyala in our Mind, one of our early Carnatic adaptations, became synonymous with our sonic character and theme. Our live version on YouTube that we had played three years ago at my sister's wedding was the first time we had ever performed it. While recording our album IndoSoul we decided to make a studio version of this song as well. There's something about this Thyagaraja krithi in raga Nalinakanthi that continues to fascinate through decades and centuries. Vibrant and positive it can never grow old! Here's our humble tribute to the great composer.

Karthick Iyer Live seeks to introduce IndoSoul to people around the world, and inspire them to appreciate music that they might not have sought out on their own.

“The Indian civilization has stood the test of time, welcoming and absorbing numerous cultures along the way - reinventing itself with every addition, but never losing its depth. In a similar vein, IndoSoul goes beyond the confines of genre, seeks out and welcomes other musical influences - while retaining its core identity of Indianness” - Karthick Iyer.
