Dheere Dheere (Original Composition) - Collaboration with Sunny

I am extremely excited to be posting this song. This is the first time I have worked on an original composition. The song, Dheere Dheere was composed, written and mixed by Sunny . Sunny is a Sound Engineer who works with Sandeep Chowta . I got to know Sunny through Muziboo . He is amazingly gifted and I am so happy to have worked with him on this project. It took us about a month to complete this one since we were trying to fit our work schedules in between. But I feel it was well worth the wait. Hope you all enjoy this one.

Soulful Music At Its Best

I was watching Idol gives back last Wednesday. For those of you who are not familiar with this show, its a special episode on American Idol which is geared towards raising money for charities all around the world. Anyway, there were a lot of pop stars, actors, sports icons etc who participated in the show to help the cause. But one person stuck out among the crowd like a shining star with her genuine concern towards AIDS in Africa - none other than ANNIE LENNOX. Her performance left me spellbound and left me crying as it came from the bottom of her heart and her pain resonated with me. I wanted to share it with the rest of you as this is soulful music at its best. The song she sang is a cover of "Many Rivers to Cross" written by Jimmy Cliff in 1969.

Hats off to ANNIE LENNOX for a mind blowing performance!

Jashn e Bahara

Hindi does not come naturally to me. However that doesn't stop me from trying Hindi songs :-) Here is my attempt at my favorite song from Jodha Akbar. I heard this for the first time about a month back(thanks to my wife for introducing me to this one) and got totally obsessed with it. It took me a day to get the timing and diction right (to some degree). I really enjoyed performing this and hope the audience enjoys it as much.
