For all the technology that goes into it these days, music composition remains an instinctive art. Sid Sriram hopes to light that very impulsive spark during his upcoming concert in Mumbai this week.

The singer will eschew his cinematic hits to lead an hour and a half of improvised experimental compositions with Carnatic, jazz and R&B influences. Casting his fame from recent songs such as Srivalli aside, he says, “As artists, we seek ways to push our boundaries. This is my way of discovering the adrenaline rush that one gets from exploring the unknown in music.”
