Hi all,

Here is my recent composition. I have called it the ‘Thirteenth Step’. It is more or less based on natabhairavi scale with a hint of saramathi. The rhythm cycle is quite a complex one of 13 beats. The normal Compositions that one encounters are mostly based on 3/4/5/7/8 beat. This has come out pretty decent I feel but the flute parts could have been better I feel retrospectively. Anyway here is it…

Also I have been collaborating a bit, thanks to Twitter and here are a few of those.

The following two are compositions by Ramprasad anna. (Twitter: @hamsanandi; Blog: http://neelanjana.wordpress.com/)

This is on the Raga rAmakriyA/pantuvarAli/kAsirAmakriyA (S  R1  G3  M2  P  D1  N3  S’….S’  N3  D1  P  M2  G3  R1  S). I had sung this!!! after more than 5 years I think

This one is a bindumAlini piece which I Played on flute. Bindumalini is a janya raga based on the melakArtha raga ChakravAham.

The following is LGJ’s Desh Tillana sung beautifully by Varsha Ramann, a pune based law student. (Twitter: @varsharamann; Blog: www.varsharamann.wordpress.com). I mixed the track and played a little flute accompaniment here and there
