Brace yourselves for a musical journey that promises to hit you right in the feels! Karan Verma, the dynamic and seasoned rocker from Chandigarh, is back with his latest single ‘Main Kahan,’ and it’s nothing short of a sonic adventure.
Karan Verma, known for his powerful vocals and compelling compositions, takes us on an introspective journey with his newest track ‘Main Kahan.’ This song serves as the gateway to his upcoming album, setting the stage for what’s to come with its soul-searching themes and rock-infused soundscape.
‘Main Kahan’ is an experience. Imagine this: drum rolls that draw you in like the opening scene of a gripping movie, guitar riffs that channel the spirit of Led Zeppelin, and a blend of classical instruments that add a unique twist. The tanpura creates an ambient texture, while the Carnatic-style violin by Subhojit Dey brings an exotic flair to the composition. Karan’s vocals? They’re bold and expansive, making you feel like you’re standing before a towering mountain, ready to conquer the world.
Karan Verma’s journey in the music world is nothing short of impressive. From being a top 50 contestant on ZEE TV’s Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Lil Champs in 2007 to leading indie bands like Bhramastra, Dark Impulse, and Swastik, Karan has nearly 17 years of musical experience under his belt. He studied Opera and Western Classical music at KM Music Conservatory in Chennai under the guidance of Gilles Denizot, a place founded by none other than Dr. A. R. Rahman. He’s also been mentored in Indian classical music by Murtaza Khan Tapas, son of Padma Vibhushan Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan.
His recent India tour with Swastik, following the release of his tracks ‘Nadiya’ and ‘Raat Guzar Jayegi,’ garnered critical acclaim, and now, he’s gearing up for the release of his highly anticipated solo album. This album promises to be a blend of rock, ghazals, and funk, guiding listeners on an emotional journey through diverse musical styles.
‘Main Kahan’ delves deep into themes of soul-searching, introspection, and grappling with questions of true identity. It’s about feeling lost, yearning for a loved one absent from life, and seeking solace by revisiting the past when the future feels uncertain. This emotional journey is not just the heart of the song but also sets the stage for the entire album, whose title remains a mystery.
Karan Verma doesn’t walk this path alone. The song is a collaborative effort with Ameen Singh on guitar and co-production, Shiv Sameer on drums, Jose Juvinao on bass, and Subhojit Dey on violin. The track has been mixed and mastered by Stereo Shinobi, ensuring every note hits just right.
