At the core of “Euphoria” are the intricate layers of tabla, the solo portions skilfully played by Ishaan Ghosh on strong grooves by a number of gifted Tabla players. They are, Pratik Singh, Sachin Pawgi, Rahul Bene, Pavan Sidam, Mahesh-Raj Salunke and Aniruddha Pandit – all pupils of the Tabla legend Pandit Nayan Ghosh. The ancient rhythms of the tabla, with their rich history and cultural significance, intertwine seamlessly with the modern beats of techno, forging a dynamic and pulsating soundscape. Ghosh’s mastery of the tabla becomes apparent as he effortlessly blends tradition with innovation, creating a unique sonic experience that pushes the boundaries of musical expression.
The techno arrangement, meticulously crafted by the multi-talented Nakul Chugh, serves as the backbone of the composition. Mixed and mastered by the veteran engineer Kohinoor Mukherjee, the pulsating basslines, hypnotic synths, and precision-engineered beats create a futuristic atmosphere that complements the organic rhythms of the tabla. As the layers unfold, the listener is taken on a thrilling ride through sonic landscapes that are both familiar and uncharted. “Euphoria” is not merely a track; it is an immersive experience that invites the audience to surrender to the synergy of tradition and innovation. The juxtaposition of the ancient and the modern, the traditional and the avant-garde, creates a sonic dichotomy that is both exhilarating and thought-provoking. Ishaan Ghosh invites you to immerse yourself in the euphoric waves of this musical odyssey and witness the magic that unfolds when tradition meets the future.
