Rockin' out to Raman

I wanted to point out 2 tracks that I've been listening to recently from one of my favorite artists, Susheela Raman. Both can be found on her myspace page. The first is Same Song and its an extremely beautiful song with the wonderful line, "Nowhere to go but the horizon/ Where then will I call my home."

The second is the yet unreleased collaboration with my fave, Karsh Kale, titled Waiting in Vain. I love the slow, subtle start and how it starts out with her English lyrics and then flows into Hindi lyrics sung by male voice. Lovely!

Although, of course IMO, I enjoy all of her tracks on her albums, Salt Rain (I love the song Mamavatu) and Music for Crocodiles.

Check them out!

Our mission with the blog is not simply to express our thoughts as proud hyphenated Americans, but also to help us navigate through the real world, as we will be skimming the surface of adulthood for the next few years. Essentially, it is an open medium for our ideas, criticisms, feelings, thoughts, and opinions relating to our identities, our South Asian culture, our education, our careers, our future, our dreams, and the world around us. We invite you to join us in this journey, we like to call the twentysomething years and take part in our discussions.
