Album Description

MRIDHANGIT explores a unique composition style engineered to spark non-traditional creativity and improvisation, allowing each musician to express unfettered creative autonomy and let their personal heritage dictate the track's emotional arc.

Some reputable musicians include Praveen Sparsh, prominent South Indian mridangam artist, Leo Margarit, Sweden-based drummer for Pain of Salvation, Ruben Rubio, versatile Spanish bassist, and Chaplin, South African pianist known for evocative tonal moods. Other musicians featured on this project include a Duduk player from Turkey, a clarinetist from France, and a violinist from Sri Lanka alongside talented local instrumentalists.

The title, MRIDHANGIT, is a linguistic fusion of Mridangam (a double-headed percussion instrument core to Carnatic music), Handpan (a melodic steel drum), and Guitar, reflecting the core purpose of the project: collaboration. These three instruments embody the blend of style and influences. During the cross-continental synergy, Mukerji also discovered that the collection of minds is stronger than one, transcending the forced isolation of the pandemic era.

MRIDHANGIT stands as a testament of collaboration created in an uncertain environment and provides listeners with a rich and engaging musical journey.
