So, Humnashin is out now.
This song began with a melody composed by my father, Tushar. He wrote it without any grand plan of turning it into an acoustic indie song. I heard it, thought "that's nice," and then proceeded to build an entire song around it. The melody stuck with me for some reason. It felt simple, memorable, and quietly emotional. The more I worked on it, the more it felt like it needed a stripped-down acoustic sound instead of anything too complicated. Lyrically, Humnashin is about missing someone's presence. Not in a dramatic "standing in the rain at 2 a.m." kind of way. More in the "life feels slightly less interesting when they're not around" kind of way. Maybe they've gone away. The point is that their absence leaves a gap. The song itself is also fairly low-maintenance. No explosions. No plot twists. No surprise rap verse halfway through. Just a melody, some lyrics, a guitar, and a mood. One thing I'm happy about is that my father really liked the final version. Considering the whole thing started with his melody, that felt important. I should also mention that Humnashin is very much a slow-burn song. If it instantly becomes your favourite song of all time, that's great. If it takes three or four listens, that's probably more in line with the original business plan. Anyway, if you enjoy acoustic indie music, mellow love songs, or simply wish to stare thoughtfully at a ceiling for four minutes, Humnashin is now available on all major streaming platforms. Listen to it. Or don't. But preferably do. Thanks. Humnashin |
