Sakar Khan (1938-2013) was the greatest exponent of the kamaicha, a 14 stringed folk instrument from Rajasthan, India. His first album "at Home: Sakar Khan" was released on Amarrass Records in 2012.

HICHKI - Sakar Khan

Raat Raazi

Long time ago, a brilliant musician from down south approached me with a very ambitious plan. At first, the plan didn't seem feasible but by the sheer energy that he had put in while he explained the idea to me, I decided to give it a shot. The musician was none other than Ifthikar Ali and he approached me to be one of the lyricists for his album Patchwork which featured artists from all over the globe. 

As a part of Patchwork, Teri Aankhein was the first song I wrote and there were quite a lot of different versions of the same song in between, but this version featuring Chordrush remains to be my favourite.

The lyrics are as follows:

Kitni sadiyan, hain beeti
baatein teri, woh suni si 
 
Har pal mein, basi khamoshi 
Aur aankhen teri, yeh jhuki si
 
Teri aankhen, maula 
bechain kare yun mujhe 
Teri aankhen, allah
kho jaaon kahin inme 
 
Teri palko ke saaye mein 
base  khwab jo hamne dekhe 
Teri aankhen jaise koi daastaan 
jaise nadiya koi hain chhalke 
 
Ruk ke dekho to ek baar tum 
teri aankhon mein janaat meri 
Koi apsara koi hoor 
ki baat hi HAIN kya 
Jo maine dhoondha to haseen 
tum sa nahi
 
Jo kuch hain mere armaan
mehke hain tum hi tum se
Door tumse ho kar bhi
teri aankhon se door
 
Main jaaoon bhi to, jaaoon
kahin bhi nahi...

First single from my upcoming debut album, Chasing Rain

Rain

Film:Barfi   Music:Pritam  Singer:Arijit Singh  
An amazing song by an amazing voice Arijit Singh...Remember once we were contenders on a reality show and now I am his "Fan"....Just tried singing a few lines...tho can't match wat he has done to the song...but will surely come up with a version in a few days....m still humming it...cant get it off my mind....

Phir Le Aaya

My cover of the version sung by Rekha Bhardwaj in her voice full of soul - I heard it for the first time yesterday and then heard it all day on loop- it was that addictive - it's kinda tough to sing this song, a bit ghazal-y and not my forte but then wanted to try it anyway. Hope you like it :)

Recorded on iPhone Voice Memo app and exported via Garage Band

The Barmer Boys are Mangey Khan (vocals, harmonium), Mangu Khan (dholak), Bhungra Khan (khartaal) and Rais Khan (morchang, bhapang, beat-boxing). Barely in their 30s, and yet seasoned performers, they carry forward the centuries-old musical tradition of the Manganiyars and are leading examples of Rajasthani folk and Sufi music. 

Their music is a harmonic blend of distinct performance styles and personalities, with the powerful and nuanced voice of Mangey leading the percussive punch and antics of Rais, Bhungra and Mangu. The group formed in 2011, and has performed with a host of world renowned artists including Vieux Farka Toure, Bombino, BaBa ZuLa, Madou Diabate, Rupa and the April Fishes, and UK’s Jason Singh/Dharohar Project. 

The band's versatility of styles and bubbling energy infuses each performance - from soulful Sufi kalaams to uplifting wedding and celebratory songs, to boisterous jams with beatboxing (perhaps even a live DJ set sometimes!). 

Their debut album At Home: Barmer Boys was released in December 2012 on Amarrass Records and is available in CD and mp3 format on iTunes, Amazon.com, amarrass.com and select independent music stores in the US, India and Europe. Mangey Khan is also a featured artist on the album Mitha Bol (2011, Amarrass Records), nominated for 'Folk Album of the Year' at the 2012 GiMA Awards (India's Grammies).
