The head of the Chitrapur Saraswat Muth came in to record some shlokas. Mr Yeshwant Mulki, a very well known arranger, who has worked with Lata Mangeshkar, Salil Chowdhary, Jaidev, Lakshmikant-Pyarelal, came in to arrange the music. We worked over 2 days and a night with the group.
We finally got the lyrics of the next couple of songs for "E Preethi". The very day after Jayanth Kaikini dropped off the lyrics, we got Asit to sing "Onde nimisha". Everybody who's heard it simply loves it and has been asking when the film will be out. Priyabharathi is counting down to her shooting schedule in the States. And soon we will be gearing up for the re recording. Praveen David came in to lay down the flamenco guitar tracks for the other song " Say ole".
Meanwhile, we've been working on a couple of jingles for some builders and a cancer care global institution. We got Deepu to record flute and violin out in Chennai.
Ram's been busy too with his Tamil album. Suresh, the lyricist has been busy coming up with songs every week. Ram wrote Kannada lyrics for one of the tunes. And also got to do a music video with it. Will put it up in a bit, after the final edits are through.
Joe, our drummer, has been coming in to rehearse and work on our live act! Well it's been fun.
Indira, my friend, called and told me about visiting Dastkars, travelling folk painters and musicians from West Bengal. I immediately fixed up a recording. They came in and also showed us their beautiful paintings.
