A new beginning!
Hello everyone!
Welcome to the official ArtistAloud.com blog . What is ArtistAloud.com? We are here to help the music created by Independent artists reach out to a wider audience.
When we started operations in 2009, the numbers were humble but we were optimistic. Today, our teams are busier than ever. Right from conceptualization of WebCerts Season 2 to the launch of a song which will pay tribute to the legendary Michael Jackson. Phew! It’s a busy, busy month. Hey, we are not complaining. After all, it feels good to be instrumental in bringing great music to people out there. That’s what ArtistAloud.com was meant to be after all.
And there couldn’t be a better day to start our own Blog where you will be updated about *all that happens at ArtistAloud.com*. Today is the 20th anniversary of PARIKRAMA, one of the finest bands in the country and possibly one of the oldest. Each time ArtistAloud.com has collaborated with Parikrama the response has been overwhelming. And you guys have proved it again and again how loved they are.
What can one possibly say about Parikrama that hasn’t been heard or told before? The fact that they are celebrating 20 years itself is a feat especially when we are in an era where bands don’t last more than a year together. So what makes Parikrama worth talking about besides their anniversary? It’s their attitude towards the business, their music and more importantly, their popularity. Those of you who know Subir Malik, manager and keyboardist, must know that he is the glue that keeps everyone together. We have had the opportunity of showcasing the band and their music via our platform and the amazing aspect is the response we receive from their fans every time we have them on board.
I still remember when back in 2000, I approached Parikrama to be a part of the show on Channel [v] that I was working on with the now MD of Endemol, Deepak Dhar. The band was to collaborate with Usha Uthup and create a song. They were already big then but they were not at all unapproachable. In fact I did not even know Subir that well then. I had only approached them at a professional level. But now 11 years later, I can only say that if you ever need to have a friend in the industry, Subir is your man.
Looking forward to celebrating their Silver and Golden jubilee together as Parikrama.
Here’s a video from ArtistAloud.com WebCert Season 1 which featured Parikrama.
