Nothing is All

Madhuros’s new album opens with a mystical keyboard chord that immediately invites us into that empty space within. As his poignant voice and guitar joins to a gentle backbeat, it’s easy to come back to that place where, as he sings, ‘Silence has his sound, Silence has his music, Invisible to your eyes, Nothing, nothing is all’. And from here it’s easy to surrender to these melodies. Ethereal yet present, mystical yet with melodies that touch and open hearts. The arrangements, some by Bhakta, are a wonderful juxtaposition of East meets West, where western style chorus-style guitar chords are weaved with Eastern Bansuri Flute (played beautifully by Praful) and Santur (also played superbly by Ramdhan).
