Fillin it up!

December 2nd, 2009

A friend mailed me yesterday saying “it’s been over a month and no updates on your blog!!!”

Yea I have been busy and now I guess I got punished for not updating u guys. I’m writing the same content second time :( . I wrote a post in WordPress for iPhone once and it got saved to local drafts and disappeared. Now I’m writing this on a newer version of WP App. Ok tech facts apart.

It’s 4:53 am on a wednesday and I’m awake. It happens to me often so I don’t care. :P

I’m in Bangalore! The garden city…Please ignore my last itenary post where I had written about the November schedule (Cochin, Chennai, Mumbai). Life is unpredictable. And so is my life!.

I was called to Bangalore on an urgent job to redesign a website I had done in 2002. Work is on and I have almost completed the initial template options. Around 4 of them.

Meanwhile tune4 – a chennai based music company – that manages my music projects – is setting up my track Elements to release it in 300+ online music stores worldwide. I guess you already know about it through my fan page on Facebook.

My Facebook fan page is nearing 1500 fans. I would like to call them my well wishers. Some random people who have helped me stick to my dream. Who have fueled my confidence and supporting me with all their love.

In April 2009, when I started my fanpage, I had less than 50 fans. My family members joined after seeing 500+ fans on the page :) . So you know how happy I’m :D . This is a recognition I haven’t got in last 16 years of my music life. Love you all!

Plasma is next big thing happening. Featurig Neha Nair, a Trivandrum based singer who have given my house music track a real good carnatic feel with her aalaaps. You can hear the first cut on Facebook

Bangalore is treating me well. Staying with cousin bro. Hanging out with his group of friends. Clubs, other gatherings, meetig new people etc. Moreover the climate here is damn sexy!

I will be in Bangalore for a while with lot more surprises :)

I’m thinking of blogging regularly. If not big updates, something short and sweet or any crazy posts.

PS: my bollywood project is delayed till march and a malayalam movie project round the corner. But as I always tell you. If it happens, it happens…so forget this till I remind you next time. When a social marketig expert like me does music for a movie, it will never miss ur eyes or ears… :)

Excuse me if there is any spelling error, I’m typing this on an iPhone. ;)

Time is 5:16 am…

Relaxing time in India!

October 27th, 2009

Hey All,

In India for last 3 months and this is the longest vacation I have ever had and it’s still not over. I was traveling from July to September and been at home after that. And my only little sister Irfana got married on 8th October 2009 and I was running around for a while for the preparations. After 8th October I have been eating a lot!!! Was accompanying the newly wed couple for their post wedding parties at relative’s places..etc etc

Now getting back to work with music. All these days I have been doing some web design jobs for company and freelance jobs as well. I’m starting the traveling process in a week. Cochin will be first stop and then Chennai in November. I have an event to attend on 18th November. That is official launch of Tune4. Well I have name in the performer list. I have no idea what I’m going to do. Let’s see. If I did perform, for sure…I’ll post video or pics!! :)

Mumbai comes after Chennai or may be will have a short visit before that and Bangalore is also in the list. My album October is getting polished back for the release. I’ll post more info soon :)

Cheers,
Ifthi
