♥Vaathil Melle ♥ - Neram Malayalam Song

Tharame

Here is a shorter version of a recent upload on Youtube from The Krimson Blend - In collaboration with Prithvi Chandrasekhar and Allwyn Jeyapaul. Beautiful percussion from Allwyn and amazing production, arrangement, mix and master (phew!) from Prithvi of Krimson Avenue Studios! 

This was originally composed by Shri Madan Mohan and the lyrics were penned by Raja Mehdi Ali Khan for the movie Anpadh (1961). Lata ji's rendition brings tears to my eyes every single time and this is an attempt at creating that kind of magic. 

Here is the link to the longer version on Youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Emf4_cS_QG0 and there's more where this came from. Happy listening! :)

Paripaalaya

A violin and guitar adaptation of the song from Maryan

Yenga Pora Raasa

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