Fresh Indie Fridays #103 Featuring Rahul Advani, Zen Clef and More

Rahul Advani – “Oh My”

Mumbai-based singer-songwriter Rahul Advani’s sophomore single comes in the shape of the pop-rock tune entitled “Oh My.” The song includes infectious melodies, bright instrumentation as well as Advani’s perky vocals. The track is also accompanied by an optimistic music video and Advani said in a statement, “‘Oh My’ is a song I wrote about dealing with self-doubt and going through days where everything feels heavy. It can be scary to stand in the downpour of our emotions, but it’s in those moments of choosing to be vulnerable that we find the strength to keep going.”

Zen Clef – Another World (feat. Various Artists)

New Delhi-based producer Zen Clef recently put together his debut four-track EP called Another World. The record leans towards a tasty R&B and neo-soul sound and includes collaborations with artists such as Keerthana Menon, Zubin Kapoor and Hikari the Banshee. In a statement, Zen Clef said, “Another World invites you to explore a range of emotions and experiences, from dreamy escapism to the raw realities of love and relationships, ultimately guiding you toward personal growth and self-discovery.”

Rahul Shah – “Ghar Sa”

Mumbai-based singer-songwriter Rahul Shah’s latest offering comes in the shape of the folksy acoustic track “Ghar Sa.” From beautifully plucked guitar parts to immersive bass notes, “Ghar Sa” is quite the earworm. Shah’s earthy vocals also shine throughout the track. In a statement, the artist said, “This song invites you to explore the essence of belonging and the power of finding solace in the presence of those who make you feel safe and heard.”

Pratika, PrabhuNeigh – Growing Up

Mumbai sibling duo, producer Pritesh Prabhune aka PrabhuNeigh and singer/rapper Pratika are out with a cutting-edge rap-rock five-track EP titled Growing Up. Through the record, Pratika narrates stories about being exposed to sexual abuse, toxic masculinity, crime and more over hard-hitting production from PrabhuNeigh. In a statement, Pratika said, “It’s been very tough to be so vulnerable about my personal life and place. But it was time to speak about the things I have because I want women and people to know they’re not alone.”
