about

K.C wrote the bass groove back in '96 while he was doing his internship in Kerala, and tried completing the song with several other bands but nothing actually took flight till now. Santhosham translates to "Joy" in Tamil.

lyrics

No longer do I wear these chains
My eyes have been opened to your ways
No longer do I feel shame
I wanna stake my claim

Give me joy, give me light in every way
I call for the time to Santhoshum
Interlude

No longer do I wanna cry
My heart is finished with your lies
No longer do I hate
For I have no interest to wait

Give me joy, give me light in every way
I call for the time to Santhoshum
Hook
ahhh
I am now free to find my way

about

Ootini! Singapore

Traipsing from tango, reggae, and dangdut to calypso, whilst conjuring odd-time rhythmic spells, Ootini is a spectacular gamble purveying worldbeat and neo-soul with inflections of math rock.

The band's music reflects diverse influences like Opeth, Nitin Sawhney, Rupa & The April Fishes, Pat Metheny and Sara Tavares.
