Album preview of Yanni's "Ethnicity" (2003).

"Ethnicity" by Yanni (Album Preview)

A one-of-a-kind contemporary music collaboration in Marathi music. 

At its core, "Saptasur" is a tribute to the musicians behind three timeless Marathi songs. But what makes this project so special is that its sound is reimagined and designed for contemporary ears. The track juxtaposes these three songs against each other - simultaneously - while maintaining the lyrical integrity of each one.

Produced by Nitish Kulkarni and featuring Shreyas Bedekar's sublime voice, "Saptasur" is sure to capture your soul.

Released August 17, 2015.
Mixed and mastered in Houston, Texas.
