'Rajkahini' is a song written by us, The Orbits to bring into ears the flow of power from royalty to rebellion. It tells a story in the form of a conversation between a tyrannical king and the ferryman of Death (Chitragupta). The king believes he has done nothing to warrant a rebellion, but as the song progresses, understands what he has done to his kingdom. This tale can be interpreted in many ways, but it carries a message, that actions have corresponding consequences. If one listens to the song, instead of simply hearing it, they can hear the message of contemplating one's own actions. The song was written in a metaphorical way, and the music was composed as a natural progression of consequence. The instrumentation alternates between heavy and light, as does life itself. It is simple to play and yet difficult to hear. It is made with soul, not to chase numbers but to set upon the world a new way of thinking. With that, we hope it comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comforted.
