BUILT FOR THE STUDIO AND STAGE.
Arrangements, tracks, charts, band assembly and rehearsal, then standing at the keys when it goes live.
I'm a keyboardist and producer based in Mumbai. These are the things people hire me for — and Rolling Stone India has covered the work sixteen times.
Music production
From a lyric and a melody to a finished release. I produce the arrangement, the players, the sessions and the mix, and stay on it until it's out. Soul, R&B, funk, pop and rock — the genres I've made records in.
Music direction
Live shows: arrangements, tracks, charts, band assembly and rehearsal. I directed Ananya Birla's 2019 India tour across six cities, and I've played Lollapalooza India three times.
Recording sessions
Book the studio and the players. I record keys, vocals and live instruments, and bring in the session musicians a track needs. You leave with stems, not a rough take.
Consulting
Gear and setup advice for audio and video, from someone who built a studio around his own. One session to work out what you actually need.
Live keyboard playing
Keys for gigs, sessions and tours — the thing I've done most. Sixteen Rolling Stone India features and years of stages, from clubs to Lollapalooza India.
