As a tribute to the utterly wonderful HBO series True Detective, this remix explores the similarities between the show's underlying theme of time being a flat circle and the Indian idea of Moksha, the release from that very circle of vicious repetition. 

So I took Thyagaraja's hauntingly brilliant "Mokshamu Galada" where he wonders if there is ever going to be Moksha without knowledge, and blended The Handsome Family's "Far from any road", the theme song of the show with it. 

Played on the following instruments
1. Yamaha C40 Classical guitar
2. Hofner beginner Cello
3. Electric violin

The raga is "Saramathi" which well into fits into the A minor key of the theme song

Far From Moksha

I take the ridiculous and the sublime, add cellos, violins, guitars and random internet collaborators to make music of sorts
