about

An international collaboration between Indian Classical musicians, Aakriti Bhatt (vocals) and Maneesh Rawat (tabla), and Welsh pan-global-alt-pop-artist, Worldwide Welshman (guitar, synths, drum machine manipulation, production) "इंडो - West – सहयोगी (Indo-West Collaboratives)" present their own arrangement of two compositions in Raag Yaman.

The first bandish (compostion), "Tori Jaaun re Jaaun re", from the Dilli Gharana tradition (of the Delhi region), is a song of love and gratitude for one's mentor, romantic partner, good friend, or family member. This is followed by a Tarana composed by Vidushi Kaushiki Chakraborty. A tarana is a type of vocal composition in Hindustani classical music that uses nonsense syllables which are most likely derived from Persian and Arabic.

Bhatt and Rawat recorded the vocals, tabla, tampura and swarmandal in Harmony Studio, New Delhi, and Rickard recorded the guitars & synths in Temporal Comet Studios, East London.

lyrics

Tori jaun re jaun re balihari...
Tori Pyari si suratpe balma re
jaun re jaun re balihari...

"oh my dear, you are my affectionate, your face is so beautiful and I feel so much positivity after seeing you that I just want to see you all the time. Your presence makes the ambience very nice, I feel so good when you are present in front of me"

Kush Rang ke mai bal bal jaun...
Charan me sheesh Jhukaun

"my dear mentor, I cannot explain how special you are to me. I just put my head on your feet"

Tana dir tanaum tana dir na...
Tana dir tanaum tana dim tana dir na...
Tana dim tana dere na
Na dir tada ni tadir tadani tadir tana na
Tana dir tanaum tana dim tana dir na......
