Love this. It's magical. Can't believe I love this song so much in my first listen itself. 

Hi Krish, I was looking for the uncompressed .wav or flac version of this track that I could buy at https://www.instamojo.com/krishashok/ but could not find it. Could you please let me know if this track will be available for buying and downloading?

Thanks for that info! I am in love with this song and am looking forward to it on Instamojo! :)

So amazing!! You took this song to a whole new level with the arrangement! Someone who hasn't heard the original would never be able to guess this is originally a thumri.

Tracks I have collaborated with other folks led by @krishashok.  Other featured collaborators in this set include raghuthaatha, @suryaragunaathan, @indian_music_fan, @ashwinvinayan, @ranjani-shanker, @hariflute, @sarthakdev and @anu-mccartney

Here's a version of the famous Nadia by Nitin Sawhney - a song that I love to pieces! This recording was the result of a late night jam at Krimson Avenue Studios to try out a new microphone and it was recorded in one go with minimal work on it post recording. Happy listening! Lovely work as always by Prithvi Chandrasekhar on this track. Thanks PC!

Shankar Tucker's Newest Album: Filament (2015)

Each one is an absolute lyrical masterpiece

Shankar Tucker - Filament - 06 Dil Hai Namazi (The Heart’s Prayer) - feat. Vijay Prakash

Being a bombayaite, I have always waited for the rains. For me monsoons have always been electrifying. indeed the fill our minds and body with a sense of electricity that brings out the hidden emotions within us. For Bombay and for the monsoons that will always play a major role in defining the spirit of the city.

An adaptation of Ilayaraja's "En Iniya Pon" from the film Moodu Pani with fellow Raja enthusiast @mediumcoffee . This project is called "Le Rogeur" and the idea was not to do a literal cover but improvise liberally while still retaining the semblance of the original song. Here we take Raja's original harmony/chord structure & use more jazzy variants. The other improv happens in the interludes, where we start out sounding like the original interlude but wander off into different territories. We hope to do a few more of these under the "Le Rogeur" moniker over the next few weeks. And oh, another thing. For this project, in recognition of the technical challenges of Ilayaraja's golden years (the 80s), we will only use real instruments live-recorded without any software programming.

Lyrics

Eri Sakhi More Piyā Ghar Aaye
Bhāg Lage Is Aangan Ko
Apne Piyā Ke Main Bal Bal Jāun
Charan Lagāyo Nirdhan Ko

Eri Sakhi More Piyā Ghar Aaye

Main Toh Khadi Thi Aas Lagāye
Mehndi Kajrā Māng Sajāye
Dekhi Suratiyā Apne Piyā Ki
Hār Gayi Main Tann Mann Ko

Eri Sakhi More Piyā Ghar Aaye

Jiskā Piyā Sang Beete Sāvan
Us Dulhan Ki Raen Suhāgan
Jis Sāvan Mein Piyā Ghar Nāhi
Aag Lage Us Sāvan Ko

Eri Sakhi More Piyā Ghar Aaye


ऐ री सखी मोरे पिया घर आए
भाग लगे इस आँगन को
अपने पिया के मैं बल-बल जाऊँ
चरन लगायो निर्धन को

ए री सखी मोरे पिया घर आए

मैं तो खड़ी थी आस लगाए
मेंहदी कजरा माँग सजाए
देख सूरतिया अपने पिया की
हार गई मैं तन मन को

ए री सखी मोरे पिया घर आए

जिसका पिया संग बीते सावन
उस दुल्हन की रैन सुहागन
जिस सावन में पिया घर नाहि
आग लगे उस सावन को

ए री सखी मोरे पिया घर आए
