,,,:::-ME and MUSIC:::,,,


"@ diVin3 @Rt th@t SculPtured M3"



I am a simple guy.....but my daily experience seem to be entertaning. It could not be classified being weird but interesting sometimes.I am a guy who had never set foot in a country yard since birth.I was delivered into the metropolitan city of KL.As i grew nothing based on this materialistic world seem to get my attention.Until this divine art, "music" grabed me.I was not sure...of my mission in life...the passion for music was hidden in me when i was little.Only god new when to bring it out of me.I was a mere sibling then Sa,Ri,Ga,Ma and Do,Re,Mi were at the tip pf my toungue before my ABC's.
I started my kindagarden, my music destiny was kept aside for a while.It was an off and on process which continued through out my life even now.Everytime i step into a new stage in life my interest in music fades away a while.I guess it's god will, i don't know what he had scheduled for my future but i am sure it's something great. Well i grew, mentaly and physically keeping up with time as it flows unwillinly....i think i was 14 then something special happened r&b and soul creeped into my soul making me to crave for more of this music genre.I was in dilemma, am i betraying carnatic music?? or is it normal to keep away my likings after long period of domination.These questions kept running in my mind....it was hard to decide which was destined for me.During the revolution of music in my life as i call it, i begin venturing and exploiting western music...I was totaly turn towards a new dimension of music....my liking towards carnatic music remained suttle in me now.
This revolution was put to an end when another genre of music caught my soul "Fusion"...i found that only with this genre both carnatic and western music discpline could unite..I was spellbound of this genre.Many great musicion has acclaimed fame by adopting this genre.I was proud to see that my icon of music "Pt.Ravi Shankar ji traveling to the western continents to unite music.It's great to see how so many genres of music could affect my life..Alas!! i was enlighten! it appealed to me that music is universal.All form of it has it's own identity and we must learn to respect them.
Now i am 20..i have started learning some instruments and also vocal ( Carnatic) since i have not been formally initiated into music.Everything i gained through the years was what they call "kezhvi nyanam" or knowledge out if curiosity.My journey into music is endless, i've even not gained the position of student but still remain a mere servent in music.As music is endless, life is a failure if not associated with it.....!
