A track we wrote and recorded for dear Chebi Sabbah for his benefit album Samaya. This is in memory of the great man. RIP brother.

Flame Of The Forest - Bombay Dub Orchestra

Another one from my Vault....!!!
This was a very coincidental production as i was recording the singer Deepthi for a jingle.
Apparently she was having a bad day and her throat was givin a traffic block.
I told her to start singing some alaaps and this traditional krithi...
Somehow the RECORD was ON and i ended up gettin a rough track with bunch of clicks n pops.I eventually ended up producing this track just for fun.This was done in 2005 if im not wrong.Hope you will enjoy this very old production of mine...

MURUGA - Rahul Raj feat.Deepthi Nair

An extended re-work of our very first track Mumtaz featuring the angelic voice of Preeti Uttam taken from our self-titled debut album. 

This rework was for a presentation to raise awareness of the plight that the original Bombay Talkies Film Studio is in. All that exists is the faced whilst businesses have sprung up in the grounds. There are plans to rebuild or at least preserve something for the future.

Hip hop on the Indian violin. track produced by Shadrach Solomon

Bombay beats

In this track I have chosen a traditional Irish tune which would trace to an Indian raga called Karnaranjani along with foot tapping rhythm.

Mahaganapathim - Fusion Cover

EDIT: (11/11/2017) The reception towards this piece had motivated me to start the Beauty of Ragas series.  I have re-recorded and remastered the original track as I was never happy with the quality of the flute recording. I hope you all like it as well now.. :)

A sequel to my previous composition for my blog posting on the raga Nalinakanthi : http://aboutindianmusic.com/2012/03/raga-nalinakanthi-part-2/ 

I hope unlike the usual way in which sequels suck, this is better than the previous. 

Do use headphones please :-)

"Iravin Parithavippu" or "Angst of the Night" is a rather upbeat song I had once composed: http://soundcloud.com/shivsu/iravin-parithavippu

This is a revisit together with http://soundcloud.com/Indian_Music_Fan who has, quite literally, breathed a new life to this song, playing motifs he has specially made for this song on his bass and tenor flutes in addition to a slick cello track.

And I, behind my Yamaha MO6 workstation, have made the rest of the arrangement.

Thillana - Madhuvanti (Ganesh Kumaresh)

I have played different styles of music from traditional carnatic to film-pop. However something that I've always leaned towards is to explore the idea of propping up our beautiful classical music against various genres like pop, rock, jazz etc. So here is a song from my outfit Karthick Iyer Live. We have played Thyagaraja's krithi Manavyala in the raga Nalinakanthi.

Do share! :) 

Covers music got a lively twist with the entrance of Karthick Iyer Live. Karthick Iyer who has played with bands and in festivals spanning almost all the continents in the world, has contemporized the existing format to suit the ever changing needs of the audiences. His concerts are known to touch every single person in the crowd, from old to new and from the laymen to the learned. He spices up his concerts with medleys of English, Tamil and Carnatic songs rolled into one. Dressed in a dazzling Moghul costume, holding a blue electric violin and armed with a compelling selection of Tamil, Hindi, English and Carnatic songs, Karthick is ready to cast a spell!
