Sometime in our past, almost everyone of us fell for someone. A fleeting glance made someone crave, and a whiff of parfum mesmerized someone far away. Almost everyone fell.
Like most of you, I must admit—I did. Some silhouette cast its shadows on the cobwebs of my mind. Wiping out the clutter and opening doors of varied perceptions.
I was at my creative best. I acted, drew, sung, mixed, crooned, awed, dreamt. And I dreamt some more.
Well, a few days ago, while fighting scorpions in my attic, I found something. Something that worked as a Time Machine. 'Coz it took me back to the time when any kingdom I ever dreamt of was ruled by me. A CD that was labeled XFiles2. I found an array of sound files, most of them mp3s.
And then, I came across a snapshot of my life. One which I had captured in words and music.
A snapshot of my Life (1.5 MB | Mp3)

(For the purists, this was just an experiment. And yes, I take full responsibility of the Gaussian noise.)
Did you ever travel back in the time machine?

Thank you ma'amoiselle!
The exact same thing happened to me when I was cleaning up my stuff now that I am moving to New Jersey. I was sifting through all the receipts all the college notes and just relived those days as memories came flooding back.
That was a wonderful song. Nice mood and the way you pronounced certain words was very beautiful. Also I meant to tell you this earlier, but kept postponing it. The best feature of your blog apart from its design is the image you create that defines each post. Its obvious that a lot of time and thought goes into its making and they invariably capture the essence of each post aptly. Very creative indeed.

Thanks, Chetan. You really help me push my limits everytime!
@Charul: Hmm... Did I tell you that there was a Bonus ambigram in DaVinciCode? Well, well, I actually meant that there was one in Angels and Demons. The inside cover Page Title is an Ambigram. No, not about teabing's name. That's the anagram in DaVinciCode.
@Roy: Yeah, mahn. Actually, I had this sudden fervour to listen to Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, when I was just out of 10th std or so. And I morphed into a great connoisseur of Sufi music. Many a times, I would try and imitate the Legend. And maybe then, a few modulations were infused in my vocal chords as well.
Thanks for liking the production. Yes, *take a bow* I did it myself. Singing mein kya nayaa laga? Yeah, fella, we should Jam more. And yes, one day, let's talk about music!
