While playing the world stage, the Delhi-based duo of Gaurav Raina and Tapan Raj, is quite comfortably, contemporary India in every way. Their music imbibes a heady dose of Indian folk and classical elements in their signature electronic music mould.
Post a well-deserved break of a few years, Punditz back on the map with a trio of singles, in the latter half of 2019. Each of these three new songs have a unique sound, borrowing from different styles of Indian Folk and Sufi music, and finally mixed with a distinct Punditz 2019 touch.
