Our Take

Upon first listen, BOLLYWOOD BRASS BAND's "Carnatic Connection" is a delightful fusion of traditional South Indian Carnatic music and funky brass band melodies. Featuring the incredible violin skills of Jyotsna Srikanthin, this album effortlessly blends two distinct musical styles into a toe-tapping, head-bopping experience.

The opening track, "Rhythms of Chennai," sets the tone for the entire album with its infectious energy and intricate rhythms that will have you dancing in your seat. The brass section shines on tracks like "Mumbai Madness," where lively horns interplay with Srikanthin's mesmerizing violin solos.

One standout moment on the album is the hauntingly beautiful rendition of the classic Carnatic piece "Krishna Nee Begane." The combination of the brass band's soulful harmonies and Srikanthin's emotive violin playing creates a truly magical listening experience.

Overall, "Carnatic Connection" is a unique and refreshing take on traditional Indian music, brought to life by the world-class musicianship of BOLLYWOOD BRASS BAND and Jyotsna Srikanthin. With its infectious energy and exceptional performances, this album is sure to leave you craving more. Trust us, you won't be able to resist hitting the replay button on this one. Get ready to be swept away on a musical journey like no other.
