Description: A Bollywood spin on Starboy by The Weeknd.

I started out this track with a light Indian Bansuri flute.

Transitioned hard into the traditional beat with pianos and vocals.

Introduced subtle Peruvian flutes in the background as a new texture.

Of course we needed to add a tabla fill-in there.

I thought a little French Horn could help lift this verse a bit higher.

The dhol I felt added a nice counter-rhythm to the otherwise simple rock beat.

I added a synth lead to help complement the melodies played by the flutes.

And now trying to bring down the energy to focus on the tablas and vocals.

Final chorus, let the final busy fanfare begin!

Thanks for listening, and look forward to sharing more music soon!
