The latest episode featured Shaan.
Renowned playback singer and composer Shaan, known for his versatile voice and iconic hits across decades, opened up about the nuanced vocal techniques of legenday music icons during his candid chat. Speaking about Lata Ji and Asha Ji Shaan shares, ”Lata Ji ki saas ki aawaz nai aati gaate waqt’. That was her genuis skill, on how you breath or gulp air without making noise. At that time while singing, you couldn’t make strange expressions or you would make the other musicians break into laughter. She had some trick of her own. With Asha ji, she used her breath beautifully. When there was a sensuousness in song she used to take an audible breath to bring magic. At that time, where you breath and don’t was something the singers would work on themselves smartly or with hardwork. Today you have the resources to clean it up.”
