Viveick Rajagopalan

Ashtanayika's - कल और आज... (Poetry in Three Versatile Forms)" emerges as an avant-garde exploration, intertwining the ancient poetic essence of Ashtanayika with the contemporary music, rhythm, dance, and rap. This production delves deep into the emotional spectrum of eight archetypal heroines, vividly brought to life through the lyrical sagas of Sur Das's poetry in contrast to the raw, powerful narratives encapsulated in modern RAP.The music is a a generous blend of classical and folk drums, layered with  jazz harmonies.Viveick Rajagopalan's music production and percussion mastery weaves a rhythmic tapestry that bridges the classical and the contemporary. 

Unleash the power of the mridangam, as Viveick and Anantha skillfully merge traditional rhythms with
cutting-edge electronic samples alongside a subtle virtuosity of vocal textures. 
This collaboration is not just about music; it's a visual spectacle that marries traditional aesthetics with modern technology, offering a unique fusion of culture, music, and technology. We call it Mridangam Pop.
