Traditional Indian-inspired folk fusion with expressive sitar lead, steady tabla pulse, and a droning tanpura bed; verse moves in sparse, ornamented phrases, pre-chorus opens with rising rhythmic tension, chorus blooms with unison vocal lines and short call echoes. Male vocals with light doubling, subtle reverb tails on phrase ends, graceful glissando flourishes between lines, airy hand percussion fills. Warm, resonant, intimate mix with a bright sitar edge and rich low-end drone.
