  • After the great success of our debut

    album Beginning the Epic, we planned to

    release our next album, Spirit of Fusion with more

    energy and vibe. The genre of the album is

    Raga-Rock Fusion (Instrumental).

    In this album, we experimented with the

    songs beyond limitations, we tried to blend Indian

    Classical Music with EDM in the song Bhairavi

    Ecstasy, there is a perfect juxtaposition of

    symphony and orchestration with heavy

    rock ballad in the song Morphine, the

    song Malhar isornamented with Indian Instrumental Ensemble

    on raga "Miyan KiMalhar". Moreover, we

    rearranged the spiritual chants of India,

    like Aigiri Nandini, Kaal Bhairava, with more zeal

    and dynamics.

    Available at all leading musical stores & also in 150+ online platforms

    “Album Contains eleven tracks:

    MomentumAigiri Nandini

    Died in DreamsBhairavi Ecstasy

    Somewhere in CloudsOcean of Immortals

    MorphineMalharRavanaBrahma

    Kaal Bhairava”

  • A basic idea in Indian philosophy is that one should not be burdened with one’s own thoughts.Adbhutam carried this basic idea into his album “Spirit of Fusion”. These three Indian men do not think that their genre and music is a fusion genre – they just drive on and it is fantastic. The alum itself comes with references, stories and melody. With calm solos, Adbhutam takes you by the hand and leads both you and our writer : Carl vs. Nirvana. (Translated)

    – Ravenrocksite.dk(“Spirit of Fusion” album review)

    On their second record Spirit of fusion, Kolkata fusion band Adbhutam keeps Indian Classical music as a launch pad for proggy, high-energy rock. Songs like “Aigiri Nandini” are safe bets but “Died In dreams” seems a bit meandering. Guitarist Somak Sinha’s fretplay on “Bhairavi Ecstasy” is worthy, with its tinge of EDM, while the band – completed by bassist Suman Mitra and Drummer Sapta Rishi – gels best on the serpentine melodies of “Somewhere in Clouds” and the string-led “Morphine”, but even these sometimes feel like they become more indulgent than they should. Quick paced fusion tracks like “Ravana” are more likely where Adbhutam’s strength lie.
