Wrote this a couple of days ago, new tuning D#A#CGA#D.
I wanted to go back to writing a few instrumentals since it'd been a while. It's about a man's last moments as he recalls all the bittersweet moments in life before he finally passes on. I hope you like it!

The New Single from my Debut Album, "Orion"

This song is dedicated to my mother, Jyoti Singh Visvanath.

This is the first single off of Dhruv Visvanath's soon to be released album, Orion.

Dhruv Visvanath was recently signed on to the record label V.L.T (Vishal Likes This) run by none other than, Vishal Dadlani. 

Thank you Vishal for helping me make my dream a reality.

Lyrics:

Chasing stars in the afternoon
I finally see
So much hope
And so much love
Another dream
Hiding chances no looking back
I finally see
No more searching I am a man

Over the sea
Over the sea
Over the sea
Over the sea

Is this a call to redemption?
Is this the only life I lead?
Another dimension
So what am I? Your new saviour?
Another tube, through which I fall?
But I was born blind
You're the hand that pulls me on.

I finally see...

Redemption [SINGLE]

This first track off of the record!

Lyrics:
Simple is as simple does
And crazy hits you with a thud
Like eyes sticking stone cold
A spear through what is yours to hold

It's all I know

Sizzle up the night
Add some chilli to your fight
Your hand hangs right above me
While the other strokes up my thigh

It's all I know

Chorus
It's all I know x2

I want to say I love you
But I need to hold back
Those feelings deep inside me
Either steel or stale crack yeah

It's all I know

Those stars that are in the sky
Are the same that's in your eye
I'd flirt a little longer
But my game ain't getting any better
But its

It's all I know

Chorus

Bridge
Brush me with matters of life
Stay sweet like apples in Eden
Throw a coin
Heads or tails
Bring back my favour in you
Plant a seed
It'll grow
Wait cause its all that I know
Throw my hands
Share my tears
Stay cause its all that I know

Oh oh oh oh

Wait cause its all that I know (oh oh oh oh)x3
Stay cause its all that I know

All I Know

Impact

Hello! I want you guys to meet DVT! It's a little band project that I have, all credits and names below. I really wanted to write a song which spoke about what a women thinks is sexy. Now I don't want to sound shallow! But I really wanted it to come from the perspective of a woman, and how she can be demanding and just as strong and well, forward. 

In Orion's story, this chapter details the moment that Orion's mother and father meet, and elope. His mother, who is an attractive lady, wins over Orion's father's heart. And after a night of Bacchanalian pleasures, what was expected of them the following day?

Lyrics:

In the night
I'm learning how to
Waste the day

Keep it light
Cause everything is
Hard to bare

Oh I cannot compare
With every little thing
Or show you how to call
Or show you how the little
Bee stings

I'm so high
I'm so high
You don't know

Oh

In this night
I'm learning how to
Waste the day

Keep it light
Cause everything is
Hard to bare

Oh I cannot compare
With every little thing
Or show you how to call
Or show you how the little
Bee stings

I'm so high
I'm surprised
You don't know 

Chorus
Hold on
You know we're better than this
Lets get together right before We kiss (I know)
Sometimes It's better to feel
I know
I know

In this night 
The moon just seems to
Walk away

Don't know why
I barely had a word
To say

So show me how to call
When the fog is so damn thick
Don't be so quick and nimble 
show you How I put my
Lipstick

I'm so high
I'm surprised
you don't know

Chorus

That One

Drunk

I wrote this song by layering different parts of my acoustic guitar together. I've been experimenting with different sounds, and with the time I spent with my producers, they really helped me bring this song to life. What you hear here is the guitar and nothing else!

In this chapter of Orion's story, the gods decide to wreak havoc on mankind. After having defeated their disciples, the gods decide to flood the land with days of never ending rain. The floods carry the bodies of the fallen victims back to their homes. Orion finds his father's body float back to his home. To his family's dismay, the flood rises further, and becomes more violent. As much as he tries to hold on to his brother and mother, the strength of the water splits them apart. Orion is now lost on his own, in a sea he'd never witnessed before. Would he ever find his family again?

Lyrics:
Another week has been forgotten
In the rain
Shine lights so bright
I can see the same

 Another child has come to wander
Through the rain
It's red she says
I don't have the same

 And honestly
I kind of jumped right in
My eyes lay golden
But my feet stay still
There's comedy
Within this tragedy
Laugh with tears and hear

 The rain x4
Time has stopped and I have spoken
Let him say
As lights go dark
Your thoughts betray

 And honestly I gave away my thrill
I chose the latter while my feet stood still
I took it off and threw it in the trash
A final heartbeat calls
The rain x8

The Enigma

This was the first single that we'd written together as a band, and released! I'd originally written the lyrics after taking a road trip to Pangong Lake, north of Leh, in Ladakh. I must quite honestly say that it was one of the most beautiful places I'd ever seen. The one thing that really won me over were the stars. The view of the stars from the campsite was nothing like i'd seen before. The galactic clouds, shooting stars, all these inexplicable dots in the sky. The moment I'd returned to Delhi, I saw three stars in the sky. It really pissed me off! 

TL;DR I like stars.

In this chapter of Orion's story, he's finally escaped the island. The night sky flourishes, the stars guide him. Now's not the time to shy away from battle. He scours through the land, in search of the gods, mentally preparing for the david vs goliath encounter. Will he find the gods? Will he find and free his family?
Lyrics:
Colour me now
Or don't believe it
Laden with treasure
You're problem free
Architects to desire
Pandora is free
The flame in the box
Shines on hopefully

Torrents enter with violence
Eating the land
Just grab hold of my hand
This desert will pour
A soup for the soul
How I wish you were here
On the night so cold

Chorus
Overnight
Stars just hide their life
From your light
Spill from black to blue
Into day
Share the secret gardens deceit
Sunlight makes its way

Bridge x2
So get on
Your satellite
And you know
That nothing compares
Starships
And asteroids
And these echoes ain't endless

Chorus x2

Cosmic Dawn

Four

Following a hunting session with the father, Orion returns home to find an emissary from the army at his house's doorstep. It was time for his father to go to war. The emperor had decided to fight the gods, having gotten tired of their immortal rule over man. And so his father leaves to fight another man's battle.

Lyrics:
And now its gone
It wont come back
Keep falling and I'm failing
This immovable track 
Somebody called
Me brother then
I fought the war
And life is back to boring again
And honestly
I had no choice
Returned to find a place
Where I lost my voice
And now its gone
It wont come back
Keep falling and I'm failing this

It's all I can see
It's what I've become
Fighting the free
Ain't enough
Give me a day
And another lie
Find me a way
For it all

Chorus
Open your eyes
Tell me that you lied and
Really want me to stay
Open your mind
Coagulate

Bridge
Climbing out of my reach
Searching deeper somewhere
With the day at its feet

It mud be harder to bear
With all the souls
And the concrete
Goodnight to the heirs

Chorus

Coagulate

This is one of my mum's favourite instrumental tracks. I wrote this sing about a small fictional kingdom, which always gives a small gem everytime a child is born to symbolise how precious they are.

And when Orion and Julius are born, the emperor of the kingdom, gives their mother 2 jewels, one for each child. The Rubies bestowed upon the children signified that they were to be hunters when they grew up.

Dhruv's music stems from childhood experiences as well as feelings of great anguish and grief. Having lost his father at a young age, many of his songs focus on how he has grown and the stories that come with it. Inspired greatly by his immediate surroundings, he began writing music as a therapeutic respite. His emotional connection to his family and loved ones gives him every reason to tell stories that Inspire.  

His latest album, "The Lost Cause " is an Independent effort (out now) released on the 19th of April , The Lost Cause is rich in the colours of the world, often shifting between traditional folk music, rhythmic pop and tribal-based work of his home country of India. It’s earthy, accessible and dazzling. The Lost Cause was debuted at #2 on iTunes India, and was in the top 50 albums on Apple Music for over two weeks. Rollingstone rated The Lost Cause, 4 and a half out of 5. You can stream/Buy the album here:

I love making music, and I hope you have a great time going through the songs - Love Dhruv.

Dhruv Visvanath
