Holy Is The Lord (Cover)- Chris Tomlin

An adaption of Ramin Djawadi's Rains of Castamere on the Violin and Cello. The raga is Natabhairavi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natabhairavi) although the phrases used sound like Bhairavi and occasionally Anandabhairavi. 

The notes of Natabhairavi match with the Western Natural minor scale. For fans of the book, think of it as a Dornish version of what they would like to do to the Lannisters



Rains Of Castamere

A Carnatic adaptation (and improvisation) of Adele's Skyfall from the Bond movie soundtrack. The raga is Keeravani. The instrument playing a solo around 4:05 is a bass guitar. 

The chords are Cm Ab F Gsus4 and G

Produced by Ben Billions and The Weeknd (Co-produced by Daheala)

Wayfaring Saigal

This composition started with an email Deepak Gopalakrishnan (https://twitter.com/chuck_gopal) sent me 3 years ago with a noisy home recording of an intro riff to what he felt might make a good ambient/melodic metal song and he was kicked about collaborating to make one. 

Well, I kept him waiting for about 3 years, till this artwork by Blaft (https://twitter.com/blaftness/status/496147826695368704/photo/1) inspired me to make a doom metal arrangement of the sloka used to solemnize Hindu weddings. And Deepak's riff kicks it off

मान्गल्यम् तन्तुनानेन मम जीवन हेथुनां। 
Maangalyam Thanthunaanena mama jeevana hethunaam
कन्ठेः बध्नामि सुभगे संजीव शरदः शतम्॥
Kantehe badhnaami subhage sanjiva sharadashatham

"This is a sacred thread. This is essential for my long life. I tie this around your neck O maiden having many auspicious attributes. May you live happily for a hundred years(with me)."

Of course, all good intentions, except, most Indian weddings are arranged marriages where an unsuspecting girl is thrown into the forbidding depths of hell as her parents' life savings are wiped out to initiate a property transfer of her life, career and reproductive rights to the groom's family. 

The composition seeks to capture this impending sense of doom as she takes a blind step into this hall of nightmarish horrors that is known as the average Indian arranged marriage. 

Vocals, Guitars, Cello - played on real instruments
Bass & Drums - programmed on Logic Pro 
Intro riff - Deepak Gopalakrishnan (https://twitter.com/chuck_gopal)

21 - MELANCHOLY

A Cello and Violin adaptation of Chammak Challo. There are a total of 5 separately recorded Cello layers and 5 violin. The percussion was programmed using the "Indian and Middle-eastern kit" on Logic Pro X. The raga playing at the start is Thodi but the song meanders into melodic & harmonic minor keys. 

ps: Based on a suggestion by Abhishek Upadhya (https:/twitter.com/_logik)

USTAD HOTEL OST - TRAILOR THEME

Kinara - ft. Mugdha Hasabnis

Another try on a filmy hit. While hearing to the song, please keep the volume low so that the voice doesn't become too loud in some parts of the song as there are no instruments played along with my voice.
