Updated on: 16 July, 2024 07:08 PM IST | Yash Pahade
Whether you’re writing a report for work or trying to cram the entire syllabus for your exam tomorrow, if you want to listen to music and be productive you listen to instrumental music. Wind, by Akhil Garg, is the perfect blend of calming melancholy that is perfect for studying or a peaceful sunday morning by yourself.
Akhil Garg is a neo classical musician from Meerut UP, who has been playing, teaching and learning for the past 20 years and his songs are a great find for anyone curating their study/work playlists on spotify. His upcoming album “Songs That I Play For My Friends” is highly personal which can be both seen and felt in his latest release, “Wind”. Everything from the production to the artwork is done by the artist, Akhil Garg himself with the mixing & mastering done by Circle Tone.
You could imagine a whole ghibli-esque animation sequence as the piano ebbs and flows, taking you on a journey of your own and if you listen too carefully you could get lost. The piece of music almost demands you to paint a picture in your head, animate a story and feel your emotions. Towards the end of the song the silence starts to speak as much as the instruments do, but the beauty of this piece is the fact that it somehow leaves you hopeful. And that is the hope and anticipation we feel for “Songs That I Play For My Friends”.
