The Music Mint

A day in the life of The Music Mint, our studio. The studio has its share of friends, well-wishers, people who love recording here and of course plenty who've never heard of it. This is to share a mint a day!

Radio Mirchi's new sound

We started work March 10. Since then, we've turned out 5 show promos-("Pori Tapori", "Balcony Badshah", "Bombat Bhama", "Mirchi Talkies" and "Dr Love") and 3 station promos for Mirchi. This, in addition to 2 more show promos already on air, "Blockbuster Budhwara" and "Munjane Raaga".

It's been a song working with Jimmy. He's articulate and imaginative. He wanted a new hip sound and that really excited us. It gave us a broad platform on which we could enthusiastically do the stuff we always wanted to. Thanks Jimmy!

Bhaskar sir, the G S Bhaskar of "Nagamandala" and recently "Accident" fame, whose encouragement and kind words have always been with us was with us yesterday. He heard our first song for "E Preethi". He patted me on the shoulder and said, "I haven't heard such a rich song in a decade!" We will soon start work on the rest of the songs for the film.

We finished making music for 2 corporate films last week and finished 3 spots today.
