Radio City Freedom Recommends Latest Hits by Your Favourite Indie Artistes Edition 25

Combining local Rajasthani folk with slick trap bass, Camel Culture by Udaipur-based electronica act BODMAS is a complete headbanger. That its received shout-outs from international acts Krewella, Yellow Claw and Grammy-nominee Wuki is an icing on the cake.

One from his five-track debut EP From Toons to Tunes, music composer and producer Aniket Mangrulkar aka Tekina combines jazz, soul and hip-hop playfully in the evolved version of Claiming Me, a track which was earlier released by the artist in 2018. Upbeat and easy-going, this one is an instant mood-lifter.

Ace producer Sez on the Beat combines forces with young rappers Dakait and Aniket Raturi to celebrate the growing presence of desi hip-hop across Indias smaller towns. The message is loud and clear through the sleek beats in Kaala Jaadu. That hip-hop isnt restricted to a few Indian metros anymore. Additional recommendation: Do check out the official video of the song on YouTube.

Sung and written by Prabhtoj Singh and produced and mixed by Aman Sagar, Angela is an attempt to re-establish connect with an estranged romantic interest. With Tyesha Kohli on backing vocals, this song brims with innocence and longing.

Tootay plays out in trademark Ankur Tewari fashion. Lyrically and sonically comforting, the song is a warm, re-assuring hug for the anxious and troubled, giving them a moment of peace.

Here is Beautiful is a hat-tip to two celebratory notes. Firstly, the song brings two sensational singers together. Clearly, neither of them need an introduction. Secondly, the song celebrates the spirit of sisterhood and empowerment. Produced by Sunny MR and mixed by Stuart Hawkes, Here is Beautiful is for all the ladies out there who believe in peaceful co-existence and having each others backs.
