Wind Horse Records' latest comes from label head Hamza Rahimtula, in collaboration with Dr. R. Srikanth, celebrated Carnatic vocalist, composer, and educator renowned for blurring the lines between classical tradition and contemporary sound.
"Mhai" bursts to life with playful, percussive energy. Club-ready drums lock in a groove before Dr. Srikanth's electrifying konakkol (vocal percussion) cuts through, creating a rhythmic call-and-response that's pure jugalbandi fire. The mridangam dances around the beat, vocal textures open up the space, and a moment of tender melodic phrasing draws you in before the rhythm surges forward again.
The fusion is seamless, combining the deep thump of the dancefloor, the intricacy of South Indian percussion, and the ecstatic spirit of live improvisation. By the time the climax hits, the interplay between konakkol, mridangam, and driving club drums is nothing short of exhilarating. An East-meets-West weapon built for DJs and listeners alike.
