I have smiled, I have cried, 
I have lost, I have won.
Kurai Ondrum Illai.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurai_Onrum_Illai
Kurai Onrum Illai (Tamil: குறை ஒன்றும் இல்லை, meaning No grievances have I) is a Tamil devotional song written by C. Rajagopalachari. The song set in Carnatic music was written in gratitude to Hindu God (Venkateswara and Krishna visualised as one) and compassionate mother.

Kurai Onrum Illai is one of the few songs written by Indian politician, freedom-fighter and Governor-General of India, Chakravarti Rajagopalachari. According to Gopalkrishna Gandhi the song is an euphemism for the bhakti of untouchables (also known as Adi Dravidars or Harijans or Panchama).

The song was sung by M. S. Subbulakshmi in the Sri Venkateswara (Balaji) Pancharatna Mala LP-2 (Long Play Record) (1979/80). This song is unique because it does not assume the tone of devoted prayer as most Hindu devotional songs but one of thankfulness to God. The song comprises 3 stanzas each set in three different ragas.

Kurai Onrum Illai is a very popular song in South India and is a regular in most Carnatic concerts. It became very famous after it was sung by M. S. Subbulakshmi.

Warmest thanks to Sandya Subramanian, Ashwin Srinivasan, Kishore Bharadwaj, and Roshan Peri for their feedback in putting this together.

What if Kendrick Lamar and Imran Khan were performing together at a club somewhere? I imagine this is how it would sound.

Thrilled and honored to mark my return after almost a year with this piece, my take on "Kannodu Kanbathellam", a classic A.R. Rahman song, and one of his most popular carnatic works. This mix has been in the works on and off for almost 2 years, and incorporates plenty of original arrangements along with a fusion with the song "Wicked Games" by Parra for Cuva ft. Anna Naklab. Only people who know me personally will know with what deep reflection I conceptualized this mix. I hope you enjoy the sound. 

Watch out for wicked games, for all that is seen by the eyes, don’t belong to the eyes. Kannodu Kanbathellam.

The Origins Championship is a national collegiate Indian classical dance competition that showcases university teams from across the United States. Hosted by @siddkel and @drsrimix, I am honored to be involved in the first ever music album promoting the event. I hope that the Origins championship and this yearly album will enable Indian Americans to showcase their unique voice and heritage for decades to come. :)

A different take on Travis Scott's "Butterfly Effect". Mixed with Bollywood song "Ainvayi Ainvayi", and Irish Folk band Beoga. This mix felt mostly like a thought experiment.

"The butterfly effect is the phenomenon in chaos theory whereby a minor change in circumstances can cause a large change in outcome. The butterfly metaphor was created by Edward Norton Lorenz to emphasize the inherent unpredictable results of small changes in the initial conditions of certain physical systems."
