Recorded live in one take. _________________________ The Tapi Project's music is woven like fabric, organically grown on poetries. Centered around powerful vocals, the lyrics are coming alive, swallowing us in an ocean of emotions, singing stories about rivers, cramped-up life, lost values, and in essence, the universal search for the self. "Khuda Ne mere" was written by the Late Dr. Rahat Indori, whose depiction of a dejected warrior, inspired us to do this modern take on a ghazal-formed poetry. The song has constantly shifting time signatures, a progressive ever evolving melody, and modern arrangements!

Recorded live in one take. _________________________ Tshering Bhutia is an indie/folk singer-songwriter from Ahmedabad. She released her debut single ‘Grocery Shop’ in January, 2021. Later that year, she featured in the alternative rock single ‘Get Up’ by the band Crisscross. Her musical influences include Dodie and Clairo. Singing in choirs and studying the classical guitar has also influenced her style of writing. It's a cute girl meets girl plot. A trespasser sits on the chair I'd saved for a friend and begins the romcom. To think of crushes as trespassers is funny.

Recorded live in one take. _________________________ Gouri and Aksha are a singer-songwriter duo from Mumbai treading the thin line between soul and pop. Their music is rooted in honest songwriting and their love for creating a unique soundscape with layers of vocal harmonies. As the name suggests, the song Not About Love is a deliberate attempt at writing about anything but love, a topic that features heavily in a lot of their music. It's three or so minutes of no sappiness and preach-iness and gives the listeners time to celebrate exactly who they are. Featuring: Raag Sethi - Upright Bass Chirag Todi - Guitar Shivang Kapadia - Drums Shankar Iyer - Guitar Protyay Chakraborty - Violin Harmish Joshi - Clarinet _____________________________________________________ Compass Box Live Sessions is a platform to support and produce indie artists, if you would like to be featured to play your original music for the Live Sessions, fill out this form: https://www.compassboxstudio.com/the-live-sessions Shot by: Siddharth Nair Edited by: Raag Sethi Mixed by: Protyay Chakraborty Engineered & Produced by: Raag Sethi Check out Gouri & Aksha's stuff!

Recorded live in one take. _________________________ An 18 year old singer/songwriter, and pianist based in Jaipur, India, Manan Mehta makes explorative indie pop. Often blending spare shoegaze, synthesizer experiments, and a melancholic tone. Manan has released his first single "Ghost in my closet" and is working on his debut EP which is set to be released this year. The songwriting of ‘Wrong Time’ comes from an innocent love for a girl in high school. Manan hesitated to put it forth as normal sentences, so he found the way to bring it in consciousness with this song.

(Yeah I guess so) I had no one you hold me I fell in love with being lonely I spoke to the walls even they ignored me We talk, but you ghosted me, Every time. It’s the wrong time. Don’t swim in my mind. I was just doing fine. Alone.
