Starting with this fantastic Carnatic fusion featuring classical singer duo Ranjani- Gayatri in raagam Chakravakam (equivalent to Hindustani’s Ahir Bhairav)

Just listen to the violinist! He’s incredible

Beautiful song completely in Raag Malkosh, which is extremely difficult while composing mainstream songs.

Also, didn't lose the Teen Taal beat at any time!

Chitragupta was great, unfortunately highly underrated.

Forgot to mention the violinist and the vocalist (girl) are Ambi and Bindu Subramanian, the legendary violinist L. Subramaniam’s kids (you might be more familiar with him as the guy who married Kavita Krishnamurthy). Oh yes, there are so many fabulous Carnatic fusion bands and artists! They are a whole breed and they are brilliant! Carnatic artists and musicians are so vastly under-rated and under-appreciated so I will be shamelessly plugging them on this thread!

And plug away fellow music aficionado…. I am enjoying getting to know some new music along with some old forgotten ones :) …. 🤗🤗🤗

As long as u dont mind my shuffle dance MVs .. etc 🤣🤣

This is my forever favourite go-to instrumental when I need to relax and cut off completely from the outside world.
