Lilaya EP by Pete Ardron & Psibindi

Pete and Psibindi met in 2014 to write a track (Mera Dil) for Pete's Unexpected Pleasures album and from the first session both were determined it would not be their last collaboration.
In 2017 they got together again to write 4 new tracks in time for a performance at Dharma Festival, Poland, which, along with a new remix of Mera Dil, became the Lilaya EP.

There is a range of moods here, from epic and atmospheric through smooth and chilled to a slightly mad bit of drum & bass at the end, with lyrics in Hindi and Urdu all sung by one of the most fabulous voices you will come across.
