Listening to music (Aficionado of A.R. Rahman), Traveling

His compositions have an auteuristic use of counterpoint, orchestration and the human voice, melding Indian pop music with a unique timbre, form and instrumentation. With this syncretic style and wide-ranging lyrics, the appeal of Rahman's music crosses classes and cultures in Indian society. Love to travel with the music on , especially during rainy days its out of the world feel
