Bhakti means devotion in Sanskrit, one of the oldest languages in the world. 

In this piece, i have tried to symbolically capture the joy and elation lovers feel the moment they set eyes upon one another. 

This is from a time when phones and internet never existed, when the man of the house stepped out for food, work or war and was away often for months on end. The only memory he had of his woman was some lucky charm, the fragrance of a tasty meal, the scent of a flower that his girl wore on her hair or a memory of her laugh. 

There is another aspect to this piece. Mystics in our culture in India steeped in spirituality have always used the symbolism of lovers to portray the inner longing within each of us. A longing to reach the ultimate within us. To my limited understanding, this ultimate is a state where the identity of our self or the "I" is no more. I guess we all experience that state - when we sing absolutely, dance, play an instrument, chisel away at a beautiful statue unaware of time, or even solve a math problem with the enthusiasm of a 12 year old. We are at our best when we forget who we are, when we are devoted to what we do, our craft, whatever it may be. When we are in Bhakti. 

This piece is my other side, my meditative side. Alive was more of, well, a rock song.

Bhakti

Phoenix

Maati. Earth. The very source of our life is calling. Can you hear?

Needless to say, the planet needs us more than ever. Climate change is impacting the world. Overpopulation. Consumerism -- at an all time high. It's time that we put our ears to the Earth and listen to what she's saying.

What started as a casual conversation between California based electronic musician and visual artist, mizu and KRP or K Ramprabhu, a musician from India has finally culminated in Maati. A real conversation with the ground beneath our feet.

Fusing traditional Indian instrumentals with modern day electronic music production, Maati is truly a hybrid piece that allows both KRP and mizu to show their true colors through sound.

Lyrics:

The Earth
She’s speaking
Can you hear
Flowers bloom The scent is in the air

I cannot count the colours
The sky is drenched in tonight
The fragrance of the land
The water of the seven seas

Raat ke andhere mein
Teri saans jab tham jaaye
Mann ki khidki khol
Maati bulaaye

Meaning of the last 4 Hindi lines:

In the depths of night
When your breath is asleep
Open your heart to see
The Earth is calling

Maati - mizü x KRP

Mukti is an aspiration for all of us irrespective of our culture. We all seek freedom & liberation, seeking a feeling of completely letting go in whatever we do. Whether it is in perfecting a note on an instrument or a dancer dancing a waltz alone in a room. We all seek it. This song is a culmination of the seeking within the 5 artists on this song.

Mukti Part I

Daises under the Moon is a song i wrote in a countryside in Moscow, Russia
in the summer of June this year when i was walking with my wife picking daisies
for my mother in law in the wild forest. I walked and came back to the wooden countryside home
we were staying in, picked up a guitar and started writing that song.
My step dad-in-law was chilling there and my wife too, i distinctly remember.


It's also a song of hope as i narrate, in my native tongue in the bridge-ish portion,
imagining myself to be a bird flying in the night sky looking for something,
and being reminded somehow, that i belong to the earth not the skies.


The artwork is a beautiful piece made by my friend @KathedralNFT.

Daisies (Remix)

This is a composition in raag Ahir bhairav. I was just practising one morning and this melody came up. Decided to write a whole story around it in sound. I thought the indian percussion instrument Pakhavaj would be a fitting addition to the symphony. Hope you like it!

Dheeray

This is a song I wrote about the day I met my wife! I met her at the ashram or monastery I lived in for 8 years. We met at the local grocery store, she walked upto me and gave me a candy from Moscow, where she is from. I still have the wrapper of that candy and it has been 4 and a half years since then. It’s actually the one on the cover art.
