Our Take

Baluji Shrivastav is back with another genre-defying album, Reorient, and let me tell you, this one is a wild ride from start to finish. The blind Indian multi-instrumentalist takes listeners on a sonic journey through a melting pot of musical influences, blending traditional Indian sounds with jazz, classical, and even a touch of electronic elements.

From the moment the album kicks off with the hypnotic sitar riffs on "Eastern Groove," you know you're in for something special. Shrivastav effortlessly weaves together intricate melodies and rhythms, showcasing his virtuosity on a multitude of instruments, including the tabla, dilruba, and of course, the sitar.

Tracks like "Urban Dream" and "Desert Dance" transport you to exotic locales, while "Electric Jugalbandhi" brings a modern twist to classical Indian music. The standout track, "Waterfall," is a mesmerizing blend of haunting vocals and cascading melodies that will leave you in a trance-like state.

Reorient is a testament to Shrivastav's musical prowess and his ability to push boundaries and defy categorization. It's a bold and innovative album that is sure to appeal to fans of world music and beyond. So go ahead, take a leap into the unknown with Baluji Shrivastav, and let Reorient guide you on a musical journey like no other.
