mad crazy groove. electrifying. soothing. east meets west. love it.

this is a new genre of sound. I'd call it 'slow-burn-fusion-electro-lounge'

retro pop meets food insecurity. electronic dissent meets aloo ka salun. 

Lyrics:

Doodh Anday 
Kitnay Mehngay
Kab Tak Kab Tak Khaoon  
Daal, Daal Roti   
Aloo, Aloo Ka Salun 
Saa, Saa Lun 

Sab pait khalee hein
Jhotay Doglay
 
Yeh note Jalee Hein 
Badlein teray bhais 

Toofan mein doobein 
Umeed phir kaisee 

Jeewan kaisa yeh 
Takleefein kyoon itnee 

Khamoshi say 
Lag ja gallay 

Maut ke moon mein 
Na Haath de 

Abbay Kha Lay Sa Lun 
Aloo Ka Salun 

Abbay Kha Lay Sa Lun
Aloo Ka Salun

aloo ka salun

A song about a guy who loves drugs more than anything else. 

YOLO (The Ballad of Drug Use)

Perhaps the most famous anecdote of the reign of the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb (r.1658–1707) concerns his “burial of music”, a parodic funeral procession put on by devastated court musicians in protest at the Emperor having banned music in 1668. In legend, the leader of this procession was Khushhal Khan “Gunasamudra”, the “Ocean of Virtue”. Khushhal Khan was one of the most feted court musicians of his time. Great-grand-son of the most famous Mughal musician of them all, Tansen, and chief musician to the emperor Shah Jahan (r. 1627–58), he was written about extensively in his lifetime as a virtuoso classical singer of exceptional merit and serious character. 

 Yet this was not how he was memorialised a hundred years later. Rather he was remembered as the unprincipled protagonist in a shocking scandal that supernaturally sealed Shah Jahan’s fate:— to be overthrown by his son Aurangzeb. In this talk I will retell the story of Khushhal Khan from the vantage point of the 1750s looking back over the canonical Mughal writings on music of Shah Jahan’s and Aurangzeb’s reigns. In doing so I wish to consider what they tell us about the role and power of music at the Mughal court at the empire’s height, before everything began to unravel.

Orient. The 'Exotic East'. The 'Other'.  So strange to acquire self-knowledge via someone else. Stranger still, to recognize what you did.
