In personal hardship, I used music and the creation of these mixes in order to process my thoughts and move forward. Each track represented a specific point in my progress (see the track descriptions and this figure: https://imgur.com/zOnwGOA). The album is meant to be listened in this order. I hope you all enjoy it, and I hope others going through hard times can use these mixes to rise up themselves. Sincerely, VGo.

A mix that is well and truly me. 

The cover art is an homage to one of the foremost figures in modern Tamil culture, Bharathiyar, widely considered one of the greatest Tamil literary figures of all time and a social reformer whose work probably shaped my upbringing.

The Berklee Indian Ensemble writes that their original arrangement, 'Jaago Piya', "is a gentle, loving reminder to stay present, in the moment, to always be hopeful, and live a life filled with gratitude." While on a trip to Iceland, I stepped outside only to look up and find an aurora borealis in its full spectacle. I took a picture of it, which serves as the cover art for this track.

I've mixed Berklee's original arrangement with Fireflies by Owl City.

Raja Kumari embodies a South Asian flair that respects the culture and its history while charting a new direction that is truly American. I resonate with this message, and made a tabla mix of her track "Shook".

ASTROWORLD is an incredible album - a blend of many different genres, fantastic music production, and an artist who used autotune artfully. There was a raw energy in NC-17 that I thought would work well with the exuberance of Dhoom Dhadakka from Namaste England (2018).

I've made some improvements in my arrangement technique and layering, and also added some of my own stuff on top of the mix.

Music has no borders, and I wish to show this in mixes that blend different cultures and different melodies.
