A few weeks ago we brought you the first trailer for Indian independent obsession drama,
Kshay. As the gets closer to completion and festival rounds, the producers are starting to get the itch to share what they can, and we are the beneficiaries.
Kshay's makers have offered two tracks from the OST of their film for free. This isn't your typical filmi music, these tracks are definitely solid mood music, and while I'm not usually a glutton for OSTs, these will be going in my collection. The makers of
Kshay also provided a little bit of background on the music and its makers, check that out below:
'Music for Kshay has been done by director Karan Gour and Siddharth Bhatia. For the music, both Siddharth and Karan knew that we couldn't be using electronic samples, which would be the independent way to go. We needed a little more character than that to help support the film's imagery. We narrowed down on a string quartet and a harp, but that would be far too expensive to record in a studio. Hence, we managed to get some more cash together and bought the Vienna String collection off their website which consisted of billiantly recorded solo strings that could be manipulated in various ways to match a natural, textural string composition. Both of them did their own versions of the movie and we actually had 2 soundtracks for the movie. The final soundtrack was a mix of both the composition types, although it went through a lot more evolution than just that, taking about 3 months to complete.'
I have a good feeling about this one, I like the aesthetics and the mood that the trailer presents, I hope it lives up to my expectations. Follow the link below for two free tracks from
Kshay's OST.
