Arushi Jain Applies Modular-Synth Wizardry to Indian Classical Music

The link between light and atmosphere is a constant point of fascination for Arushi Jain. The New Delhi-born composer uses the countless colors that appear at twilight as a fulcrum within her work, and the evidence is all over her debut album, Under The Lilac Sky. An LP specifically composed for the sunset, Lilac Sky is a dazzlingly meditative project which intersperses various pieces of Jain’s identity through a finely-tuned balance of Indian ragas and modular synthesizers, all underpinned by her captivating vocals.
