Farar – Sadu’s Latest Release

Farar, features Arabic rhythm patterns with the beautiful sounds of Oboe, Bassoon & the good old acoustic guitar, alongside soft rock vocals which was released on May 26, 2021. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of bitter-sweet emotions of such time. One of the memorable voices from popular 90s hits is that of Sadasivan KM Nambisan aka Sadu. The vocalist, lyricist, composer and a founder member of the famous erstwhile pop act, Sadu is determined to carry forward the legacy of hummable melodies, such as Aankhon Mein Tera Hi Chehra, Dekha Hai Teri Aankhon Ko and Yeh Hawa Kehti Hai Kya as a solo artist. Post the success of his ghazal style singles which were born out of his live sessions during the lockdown last year, Sadu is back with a pop-rock number which talks of separation, longing and loss The singer whose music has become synonymous with nostalgia (and/or the 90s), explains, “Farar is an expression of a situation where your beloved leaves you. You remember those details of time you spent in impressing them, you think of the street they lived in and you still hope that your paths will cross someday and all will be fine again. The track was given a live feel with guitars playing a major role and oboe & bassoon were used to create a nostalgic ambience. The cross of the song has a symphonic string support which enhances the emotion of desperation… of separation.” More about the artist Sadu was born in Kerala but brought up in different parts of the country such as Ooty, Tamil Nadu and Itarsi, Madhya Pradesh’ given that his father was in the defense services. Eventually he found himself in Mumbai, Maharashtra in his pursuit of music. With a master’s degree in Science (Organic Chemistry with specialization in Environmental science) and a keen interest in sports, Sadu’s first brush with music was in the small town of Bhopal, MP with an orchestra group but his relentless desire to make his own music took him to Mumbai, in 1996. That is where he met his soon to be bandmates DJ Narain and Jai Walia and Aryans – the band came into existence. Universal Music formerly known as PolyGram launched their first album Aankhon Mein Tera Hi Chehra, the title song starring Shahid Kapur, became an instant hit in 1999. The next two tracks Yeh Hawa Kehti Hai Kya & Dekha Hai Teri Aankhon Ko, also became big hits and the awards started pouring in, soon after, leading to a great run for The Aryans. With pressing individual professional commitments of the band members (Sadu runs a pharmaceutical company, for example), the band continued to do shows for a while and then over a period of time, members started releasing their solo works, independent of the brand name. Farar by Sadu, is the need for a music industry independent of the film industry and urges musicians to keep up the good fight for original music. Farar – Sadu’s Latest Release

Antariksh’s latest video single Jee Le Zara

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Antariksh, a popular Hindi-Rock act based out from New Delhi, is back with a new video single titled Jee Le Zara, which was released globally. The video of this song was considered as a youth anthem to encourage young folks to break free from the shackles of illogical customs and societal baggage. The song features 5 real life artists as the protagonists from across the country namely Brigit Jose (Poet), Rebecca D’Costa (Hula Hoop artist), Jia Singh (Wellness Consultant), Anveer Mehta (Skateboarder) and Anna Vyas (Dancer/Model) alongside the brand. The video has been shot in 4 different cities like Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai and Goa. Vocalist Varun has dedicated this track to his recently departed father. “Although, the lyrics weren’t initially written with this thought in our heads, but now it almost feels like I’m singing the song to him. Jee Le Zara, reiterates the most important thing that we as humans should try and do — live in the moment and live like there’s no tomorrow” he says. [/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqlivsuPLr4&list=RDPqlivsuPLr4&start_radio=1″][vc_column_text] The Vocalist hopes that the track inspires people to live a life on their own terms without worrying too much about the destination. Jee Le Zara has a Pop/Rock vibe with inspiring lyrics and anthemic chorus with an edgy dubstep section thrown in which comes across as a surprise element. The track is performed by Varun Rajput (Vocals), Joshua Peter (Keyboards & Vocals), Dan Thomas (Drums), and Shrikant Biswakarma (Guitars). Antariksh is rated by MTV as one of the best Hindi Rock Artists from India and is renowned for bringing multiple authentic genres and styles from the West to mainstream Hindi Music. The Music Band was born out of experiment etched in desire. At the beginning of 2000s the band’s founder and vocalist Varun Rajput along with his friends & former bandmates (Mridul and GT) felt the need to bridge the gap between their two favorite styles: progressive rock and Indian contemporary sounds in his mother tongue – Hindi. Coming from a Progressive Heavy Metal background, back then it was natural for Varun to want to reach more people with his programs in rock musical sensibilities but not get limited by a language barrier. The band’s evolution or the indie scenario in India opens up a fair bit, Antariksh is now set out to embrace the multi-lingual tag, going forward.
