This track is a great blend of western RnB/pop from the modern era and traditional Indian music.
Singer and multi-instrumentalist Himmat Singh grew up in the Bay Area California and developed a passion for indian classical music at an early age. Since then he has flourished in the Los Angeles music scene becoming renound for his fusion of Indian culture and modern pop and RnB production. Not only is Himmat an extremely talented musician, but he also directs and produces his own music videos.
"Akh Kashni" features the unique vocals of Betu, who conveys the emotion of the problems faced in daily life expertly. The melody is instantly catchy and the shimmering synths accent the laid back acoustic guitar ostinato perfectly. Traditional indian percussion has been used throughout this piece which adds a unique element to this refreshingly modern take on pop music.
