Immortal Technique - Revolución

The genius Carnatic vocalist Madurai Mani Iyer (1912-1968), possibly the greatest exponent of live improvisation in Carnatic classical music, popularized this "English Note" composed by Harikesanallur Mutthiah Bhagavathar (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNjl5w8Prw0) to showcase his autodidactic (self teaching) talent in expanding beyond his strictly classical training. This piece was extremely popular with an independence era audience that felt pride in one of their own "getting" western music while no Englishman could perform a Thodi alapana. 

Obviously as a Indian classical musician, Mutthiah Bhagavathar only composed the main melody, an incredibly catchy and hummable tune that would have worked in the best courts of Vienna. But Western classical music is about harmony layered over the melody and I was surprised that no one had taken a crack at taking this really catch melody and writing a String quartet around it. 

There were some interesting challenges. Mani Iyer clearly did not keep harmony in mind when he wrote the piece so there are places where the melodic sequence presents quite a hard challenge to harmonize, but all in all, I think it turned out okayish. 

Again, I am quite an amateur and It will be great if more talented musicians take this melody and set it to even better background scores :)

Nemesis

Composed by @hariflute as a memorial tribute to our friend Balachandar's Dalmatian Tommie, who passed away recently. (http://vimeo.com/28183556)
Piano - Harish
Violins (One acoustic &amp; one electric) and Cello - Krish Ashok
The Cello presented a few recording challenges, primarily one of mic placement. But since the notes being played were in the lower registers, it turned out OK. It will be interesting to see how higher pitched notes sound with this placement because they sounded quite nasal when I tried it out.
For the acoustic violin, I used a Samson condenser mic but I'm not altogether sure the placement was right. A 100 year old German violin really ought to have a brighter, heavier sound without any fancy processing. But well, I suppose one has to keep trying. To avoid background noise, I had to switch off the fan and the A/C, which made it quite uncomfortable in the room.
The Electric violin of course is quite simple. Just plugin straight into the sound interface and one is good to go, but unless the instrument is quite high end, it's impossible to get that particular natural violin sound. I'll need a few more promotions at work to afford a better electric violin though.

Lyrics:
This is
Your Chance... Revolt, Resist! Open you chest, Look down, Reach in.
Shedding Your Skin, Showing Your Texture. Time to Let
Everything Inside Show. You’re Cutting All Ties Now and Forever Time to let
Everything Outside You
This is
Your Test... Come Forth, Confess! Extend
Your Tongue, Speak Out, Go On.
Shedding Your Skin, Showing Your Texture. Time to Let
Everything Inside Show.
You’re Cutting All Ties Now and Forever Time to let
Everything Outside You
Shed your casing, Show your lines And shapes.
Wear your insides, On the outside, Show your enemy, What you look like

Leathers

In a while, in a word,
Every moment now returns.
For a while, seen or heard,
How each memory softly burns.
Facing you who brings me new tomorrows,
I thank God for yesterdays,
How they led me to this very hour,
How they led me to this place...

Every touch, every smile,
You have given me in care.
Keep in heart, always I'll,
Now be treasuring everywhere.
And if life should come to just one question,
Do I hold this moment true?
No trace of sadness,
Always with gladness...
'I DO...'

Now a song that speaks of now and ever,
Beckons me to someone new,
Unexpected, unexplored, unseen,
Filled with promise coming through.
In a while, in a word,
You and I forever change,
Love so clear, never blurred,
Has me feeling wondrous, strange,
And if life should come to just one question,
Do I face each moment true?
No trace of sadness, always with gladness,
'I DO...'

Never with sadness...
Always with gladness...
'I...DO....'

Backing track by Gábor @gabtunes

Melancholy March, your gloom is showing
Your winds are blowing across the sky
Melancholy March, your clouds are crying
Your trees are sighing as though they'll die

I know your lays for winter stay
too early for any spring
So we stand hand in hand
Waiting for anything

Melancholy march without a season
You have no reason a rhyme to be
Melancholy March, meet melancholy me

Melancholy March, meet melancholy me

Lyrics & Notation: http://www.shivkumar.org/music/sarasaksha.htm

Thanks to an earthing problem at home, I had to do quite a bit of jugglery to marginally mute an ugly droning sound that crept into the recording. For those interested in sound engineering, I used a high pass filter that removed the annoying bassy part of the drone.

Lyrics:
saawan aaye jo          
pal mein bataye 
teri zingadi  
ab badle 

Discotheque lights adorn 
as the valley moans like the wolves in drones 
    
The dancers in vain try a picturesque smile  
as they're hunted down by the morn
 
The peasants awake 
to see their fields all adorned 
with barren mannequin of their crops 

The  new born awakes 
and sees the source of his fodder 
waving in circles 
its light of the new world 

Yeah we need some healing 

Rise up, Rise up and contain me
Wake up, Wake up and heal me 

Lust in their eyes and no fear that they are blind 
Caught in this madness, resurrect the benign 

saawan aaye jo          
pal mein bataye 
teri zingadi  
ab badle
