Second single off the upcoming album BEYOND MUSIC VOL.3 CONFLICT - out June 17th. https://www.beyondmusic.org
Chand Ke Phool, which translates to 'moon flowers', is inspired by the suggestion that earth and moon were once one planet that was broken into two. This hypothesis stands as a metaphor: at the core of all conflicts, there is a void, which can bring peace and prosperity, if it’s filled with love and care.
On its high-end online platform, Beyond Music, https://www.beyondmusic.org, brings together professional musicians, composers, singers and songwriters from all cultures and musical styles. The aim is to connect the dots of talent world-wide, and to unite and inspire the artists through the ability of exploring completely novel groupings of collaboration. Under the musical theme conflict, this year’s Vol.3 album was produced by four-time GRAMMY Award-winners Michael League and Bill Laurance of the music collective Snarky Puppy. 140 music pieces by a total of 850 collaborating artists were submitted. Chand Ke Phool was selected by Michael League and Bill Laurance as one of the 16 songs for the Beyond Music album Vol.3.
Michael League and Bill Laurance about Chand Ke Phool: “One of the most instantly recognizable songs of the bunch, Chand Ke Phool grabs you from the first second and takes you away in its playful, bouncy flow. The interaction between the vocal and flutes provides a feathery bed in the high end that makes this one feel like a dream. The blend of Indian and South American traditions is fascinating here. It's an ear-worm for sure.”
