  • Bio

    Dhriti’s music is a mellifluous blend of musical genres that is deeply rooted and inspired by nature. A pioneer of sorts in alternative music in the region, his is a soothing blend of lounge and Indian classical that is sprinkled with elements of folk music forms.His training in Indian classical music took place when he was only ten years old. The seeds of music that were planted then has continued to grow throughout and has germinated in the form of 'Mon Akax'. Dhriti’s growth as a musician has been a long process of practice and exploration, whereby he assimilated the best of all that he encountered. From stints in SAE, Chennai, where he got his Audio Engineering Degree, to a year-long sojourn in Varanasi, Dhriti has built up on his passion by learning and sharing. Dhriti recollects, “My experience in Varanasi was crucial to my understanding of the nuances of various folk, classical and contemporary genres of music, and eventually the kind of music I would be composing later on.”Dhriti was recently featured in Rudy Maxa’s World, a television show in the US, where he performed two tracks from his debut album. He was also featured in BBC World’s Radio programme on Art and Culture – The Strand. His recent performances include that of ‘The Brahmaputra Beats Festival’ at the India International Centre in New Delhi and ‘The Northeast Festival’ at the Hotel Park, Delhi. --- The Sentinel, July 2010 .. ....
