Papon(Angaraag Mahanta) singer. composer, programmer, producer-born in assam to set of brilliant musicians, was introduced to music and its intricacies in his early childhood. His mother ARCHANA MAHNATA and father KHAGEN MAHANTA are two very popular and respected musicians of the region. Naturally, music has been there in his veins, his pulse as well as his ears since he was born. BOrn in the environment of music and musical performances his initiantion into music happened at an age when most people learn to talk or walk.
Inspired by the wide array of sound that he has been exposed to from the traditional Vaishnavite devotional songs of Assam to new-age electronica, Papons music is new and free. Free to be confined by any genre and new to be identified with anything that already exists.
His initial training has been in Indian classical and traditional music (devotional and folk) from Assam a region in the north eastern corner of India, sharing its borders and culture with the very oriental - Bhutan, China, Myanmar and Bangladesh.
Papons boundary-free renditions have definite traces of pentatonic Mongoloid notes, the soul searing lyrical river songs, the rhythmic spring songs, the spiritual devotional songs, restrained Indian classical and the smooth-as-mature-wine ghazals. His innovative experiments are rich with ambient electronica, acoustic folk, electro ghazals, new-age, Ind-classical sounds.
papon had released his first album 'jonaaki raati' in assamese.- the language he was born to and is working on his hindi album.
Lately he is doing vocal jams with MIdiVal punditz and with Susmit Sen of INDIAN OCEAN'.

We have launched a new rocket aimed towards the deep end of the pool. This time it is a maxi-ep featuring Splatter, a mexican producer currently traveling around Europe getting inspired by the new strange cultures :)
Splatter – Induced Musik, is an EP dedicated to the mature listener. Full of big abstract sequences and mind shredding sounds. The music get you into a deep and melancholic world full of demonic sub layers, and you will find yourself surrounded by hyped arppegiators and hypnotic grooves . This is a recommendable EP which brings you an almost vivid look into the world that he see’s.
We are finally ready to start promoting my 'I Surrender' single with my album, 'Ella Trip' coming right after -yey!! What d'ya think to the video teaser?
