"Ennavale Adi" Abhijith P S Nair ft. Sumesh Anand (A.R. Rahman cover)

"The carnatification", a carnatic musical presentation on a electric guitar is what makes the album entirely different from the others in the market. The  carnatification is nothing but CARNATIC MODIFICATION . The album is filled with pure essence of carnatic music of highest order, comprising of high standard and popular krithis by the greats such as muthuswamy dikshidar, thyarajar, periyaswamy thooran , patnam Subramaniayam Iyer, madurai mani Iyer and purandaradasar. And as a highlight have my first composition too, a peppy ragamalika number. 
               
                   THE UNIQUENESS 

               The album is distinctly unique for the style of playing with double octaves , harmonies, and artificial harmonies and highly grooved swara sections which are completely new to the audience of carnatic. . I LL assure it to be a youth favorite because of the electric guitar factor and the recording quality and the brand names in the album.

              BIG SHOTS IN THE ALBUM

            THE CARNATIFICATION  has some real big names who are currently at the peak in the carnatic feild. I have been accompanied by my dad and percussion maestro Prapancham Ravindran on the mridangam , kanjira maestro B.S.Purushottam and hugely reputed DR.S. Karthick on the Ghatam. The 3 rhythm heroes have provided some brilliant grooves with the electric guitar , thus making it sound epic.

One rough version track from our upcoming album.

Seetha Kalyana

Manavyala in our Mind, one of our early Carnatic adaptations, became synonymous with our sonic character and theme. Our live version on YouTube that we had played three years ago at my sister's wedding was the first time we had ever performed it. While recording our album IndoSoul we decided to make a studio version of this song as well. There's something about this Thyagaraja krithi in raga Nalinakanthi that continues to fascinate through decades and centuries. Vibrant and positive it can never grow old! Here's our humble tribute to the great composer.

Karthick Iyer Live seeks to introduce IndoSoul to people around the world, and inspire them to appreciate music that they might not have sought out on their own.

“The Indian civilization has stood the test of time, welcoming and absorbing numerous cultures along the way - reinventing itself with every addition, but never losing its depth. In a similar vein, IndoSoul goes beyond the confines of genre, seeks out and welcomes other musical influences - while retaining its core identity of Indianness” - Karthick Iyer.

The fifth song of #ThePallaviShift

Marubari, composed by Dharmapuri Subbaraya Iyer, is a type of South Indian classical composition called Javali. Javalis are love poems written in simple and colloquial language. The IndoSoul version of Marubari features a brisk version of this classic with an RnB groove. The latter part of the song features female vocals, giving voice to passion, pursuit and desire.

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!
