Manage episode 367896311 series 2882321
In this episode of Brown Art Network, Sneha and Keerthi interview ROYAL - a Bengali-American multi-instrumentalist, singer, aCappella arranger, and Neo Desi music producer. During the day, he is pursuing his residency in general surgery, and by night, is hustling in the music industry. In this episode, they talk about the genre he coined as "neo-desi music" and how it symbolizes the blend of various cultures, how he derives his sound, his debut album shaunak, his efforts in mixing music for the desi dance network, and the behind-the-scenes process of developing his album. While they discuss all things music related, just like his dual identity, they also dive into a new way of defining careers by pursuing multiple passions at once. They conclude the episode with ROYAL sharing advice on how to get started making music and how to grow your passions into your brand/persona.
