The Anirudh Varma Collective is a collaborative project, bringing artists and musicians of diverse musical and cultural backgrounds together to form a unique musical identity. The idea behind this venture is to showcase Anirudh’s identity as a composer, producer and music director, incorporating the energy and perspectives of the musicians who are being featured on his compositions and repertoire. 

 This particular project is a contemporary representation of Hindustani Classical Music, for both the musician and audience community. This album aims to portray and represent Hindustani Classical Music using Western Classical Music sensibilities as well as a whole host of other influences brought to the forefront by collaborators. Contributors to the album include veterans, such as Pt. Sarathi Chatterjee, Ehsaan Ali, Pavithra Chari and Ritesh Prasanna to name a few, as well as a talented array of younger artists. 

The album is an incredible blend of over fifty musicians from the contemporary Indian music industry, coming from diverse musical backgrounds, and bringing in their own colour and identity on this album. The project involves a myriad set of gifted artists, designers and filmmakers who are part of the production and creative team. 

 The Anirudh Varma Collective is an attempt to showcase the eclectic hues and innumerable facets of the contemporary Indian Art Scenario.

The first-ever live performance of The Desert Journey recorded at Alliance Francais, Karachi on 13 February 2016. 

Last night I lost my head
A quarter after ten
I wish I could tell someone
Exactly how that felt
But in this desert land
Nothing will be know
For in this desert sand
Nothing can be sown

That's how I lost my head
A quarter after ten
I wish I could show you all
These demons and regrets
But in this desert sand
Nothing should be sown
For in this desert land
Nothing can be known

Guest musicians in this performance - 
Waqas Hussain: Sitar
Gul Muhammad: Sarangi
Zohaib Hussain: Tabla

The Desert Journey (Live in Karachi)

One of our earliest performances of Angels & Djinn live at The Premises in London in April of 2015. For this session, we had Adil Azim on bass and Raheel Manzar Paul filling in on drums for Istvan.

(Dar/Alvie)
Hey, I heard you call my name
I heard you went insane
Life is not a game
Wish you were here to stay
In your messed up way
I heard you call my name

Won’t you take a ride?
Won’t you kill some time?
Can you find a way to me?

I don’t have a lot of time
The whole world is mine
Give me a sign
Let me know you’re mine
Maybe just a smile
Let me in a while

Won’t you take a ride?
Won’t you kill some time?
Can you find a way, to me?
Won’t you take a ride?
Won’t you kill some time?
Can you find a way to me?
