Biography
MIDIval PunditZ consists of the duo of Gaurav Raina and Tapan Raj who write, produce and remix collectively. The sound can be labeled as Indian Electronica but more specifically it's the perfect blend of south Asian traditional sounds with the electronic edge of the Western world.
Not only does the duo perform live around the UK,Southern Asia and the USA but they also have composed music for Bollywood as well as contributing songs to Hollywood itself.
Combining the unique sounds of the sitar, sarangi and haunting vocals, one certainly doesn't need to understand the language being sung to understand the depth and emotion within the music itself. The duo collaborates with impressive artists including; celebrated Pakistani female singer Abida Parveen, Anoushka Shankar, the daughter of the legendary artist Ravi Shankar, and Kailash Kher, whom Gaurav describes as "a new Bollywood playback singer." Just to name a few.
This music is remarkably inspiring and proves that the power of music is indeed universal.
