Soundcloud Collaborations

My first proper music video, (Link to Video : http://youtu.be/QPT3uup_pOU), I have had the amazing opportunity to work with the Nightingale of California, Meera Manohar in a re-arragment of the song by Ouseppachan, Andhi Maalai.


The tune of the song is heavily derived from the famous kriti of Saint Thyagaraja, 'Endaro Mahanubhavulu'. Meera and I both love this Thyagaraja swamy krithi and so decided that as our first project, we will do a re-arrangement of the Andhi Maalai song. :-D

The original album was released under A R Rahman's name although he had played only as a keyboardist*. The vocals were by S Janaki in the original version with lyrics by Vairamuthu

Vocals, Video and Editing: Meera Manohar ( @meeram ) 
Flute, Music, Arrangement: Vijay Kannan ( @Indian_Music_Fan )
Mixing: Meera Manohar and Vijay Kannan
Mastering: Meera Manohar

Andhi Maalai - A Re-arrangement featuring Meera Manohar

A hard rock adaptation of the Ahir Bharav bandish from the Manarang Gharana in Jaipur made famous by Ustad Sultan Khan in the movie Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCXQXuKpgKEO, with interlude elements borrowed from Hava Nagila, a Jewish folk song. The lyrics, written in Rajasthani, celebrate the arrival of a lover into the household and Hava Nagila ("Let us rejoice") is traditionally sung at Jewish weddings.

The swaras were sung based more on the south indian raga Chakravaham.

Albela Sajan

A Fusion based on the composition of Papanasam Sivan in the raga Hamsanandi. 

Credits:
Main Melody and Lyrics: Papanasam Sivan
Vocals: Uma Ramasubramaniam
Music: Vijay Kannan

I have known Uma Ramasubramaniam for quite a while and had also been involved in a carnatic music CD (http://ragasurabhi.com/carnatic-music/buy-lalithamritham-audio-cd.html). Recently, Uma and Ram had come to Berlin and had a chance to record a couple of songs. 

She hosts a website where one can learn about ragas of Indian Music : http://ragasurabhi.com and also teaches carnatic music online. 

http://ragasurabhi.com/carnatic-music/buy-varnam-lessons.html

An interesting aspect about the music I have done for the above piece is the use of Graha bedam (Tonic Shift) in the second interlude.  The actual raga of the song is in Hamsanandi. The graha bedam leads it to Hindolam
{{
The tonic shift is done when I change the Shadjamam (Sa, tonic note here is G) to the Rishabam of Hamsanandi (G#). Now the swaras of Hamsanandi are S R1 G3 M2 D2 N3 S' Hindolam scale is reached when I play R1 G3 M2 D2 N3 R1' (which when R1 = S becomes S G2 M1 D1 N2 S').

Hamsanandi:
G  Ab(G#) B C#  E F# G'
Hindolam:
Ab(G#) B C' E F# Ab'(G#')

Flute Duet In D feat. Vijay Venkatesh

A few bars of string quartet playing around with the Hyperion Strings Elements from Soundiron. Oh and a harp too.

Strings experiment

Started with piano pattern (played on pad controller) and then tried to go to town with just adding new sections without getting stuck and finally arranging them a bit.
