MUSICC!!

alright as far as music goes,
Ever since the time of Guru Nanak, Music has been the medium to deliver the message.
Music is what brings people together, music what gets peoples attention and enhances their senses. Starting with Guru Nanak, sikhs have always used music to relay on the message. Guru Nanak started by writing his own poetry, which was written in the little rhyme book he carried, called his "Pothi". And at that time whenever sikhs would gather to listen to him, he would sing hyms from the pothi, while mardana played the "Rabab". Back in the days, that was the hottest thing around. Later on in the years, the guru's music evolved as did the instruments. Guru Sahib created, and correct me if im wrong, 36 Raags, and the instruments evolved from the Rabab to instruments like The Tous, the Dilrooba, the Saranda, and later on to the Sarangi and the Tabla, and recently the Harmonium.
This is Why we have Kirtan, music is used as a medium to recite the message of the Gurus.

SO, if the Guru's were American born teenagers today, and they saw what was wrong with the world...what do you think they do?
Well for us, we think that Most probably Guru Sahib would use the hottest music medium to relay his thoughts and beliefs. And THAT my friends is exactly, what we're going to try and accomplish. Put his message, coming from our mouths, into music that YOu like. haha.

The album is probably going to have a good fusion of Hip-hop (because we all know hip-hop is being bought out and put to sleep), Gurmat Classical, indian Classical, Maybe a bit of Alternative or Rock, and Acapella Spoken word stuff. Basically anything that sounds HOTT! is going to be included....otherwise its filtered. haha.
We are also still looking for a good producer, someone who is able to generate beats on a computer, put together music, and help enhance the music aspect of the project. So if you are interested, please let us know.

Alright, thats it for me.
Thanks for listening
