Was listening to Peter Cat Recording Co.’s “Soulless Friends” and thought—why not add a bit of sitar to it? So I played the track on my Bluetooth speaker, picked up my sitar, and recorded the whole jam session live!

I think the raga might be Hansdhwani, but I’m no expert—just someone who finds joy in exploring sound. Sitar is a hobby, and while I’m still very much an amateur, it’s become a deeply personal space for self-discovery. She (yes, my sitar!) gives me purpose and helps me shape my own “Ko aham”—outside the world of finance, academia, and everything else I do.

Hope you enjoy this little experiment. Let me know what you think—and how I could’ve made it better!
