Episode #20 ft The Sacred Geometry

Great conversation with The Sacred Geometry who recently released their EP titled “Vrajya”. The duo comprises of Pranav Jadhav and Siddhartha Ghosh both architects and longtime friends who share an innate passion for expermental music. Coming from an architectural background, ‘The Sacred Geometry’ draws their inspiration from the golden ratio, biomimicry, parametric design among other concepts.  The project came into being during their years together in college and took a proper shape from India Film Projects 50 hour music challenge wherein they participated as a team in 2021 and have been working on tracks together ever since.  Siddhartha has learned under the tutelage of mentors from the legendary Indian fusion band "Advaita". Pranav, a.k.a. PRNV, on the other hand is a popular Mumbai based Dj/Producer who is mainly known for his Progressive House playstyle.  In taking their inspiration from mother nature, the tracks naturally capture the fleeting boundary between order and chaos. Introspection, Truth, Khwaaishein and Lunar Myth take the protagonist through his journey of self discovery using melodic Lo-Fi samples mixed with ambient house beats and soundscapes.    Hope you enjoy it!   Check us out - https://www.musicmandir.com/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbW9zd0ZvYWtfU3QxOU5WbkJMdk1Lcjg3Y01QUXxBQ3Jtc0tuWURoVmw5UFV2b1RPekJiQ2JITGc0UDg1aGQ1ZW1kUGVVSEswX3ZwdG43M0tYUlZUTFZlZjRFWGZjSTNkS2pDZDBZYmxCTldrdklaS0FVRGFWVzBMc0RmVkkyUEN6REY4dWJXV2RyV0FmYmtzWThndw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.musicmandir.com%2F&v=8Ai5UgHL-iM]

Episode #19 ft Shantanu

Musicmandir talks to Mumbai based DJ & producer Mr Shantanu who creates music under the monikers ‘Smg‘ and ‘kSaya‘ (Pronounced Saya). It has been a long time and after the success of his previous tracks "Walk" and "One Dance", Shantanu is finally ready for his new release "Blinded by Your Love" which comes out on Friday 30th of July 2021.  . Teaming up German singer and songwriter, Kaja Riedle and long-time collaborator Yash Gosavi, this tune comes after a long hiatus from the producer after months of graft stretching back to October 2020.   ‘Blinded by Your Love’ comes from a personal experience which in hindsight turned out to be an incident that changed my perspectives and inhibitions for the good. After my encounter with impulsiveness and bad decisions, I realized that it’s not consuming just me but it is consuming or has consumed people and relationships of all forms.
