Album: The Road Ahead
Indus Rush is the vehicle used by musician / producer Stephen Whitby to
publish his music on an unsuspecting world. Indus Rush enjoys mixing
traditional instruments and sounds, many of them Asian, with modern
synthesis in colourful combinations of sound which are fairly unique in
modern music. Inspiration comes from many years of travel and Live
Performance with professionals from all over the world, and great
producers
such as Brian Wilson, George Martin and Grammy nominated Dutchman, Hans
Vermeulen. Bands such as Pink Floyd, Yello and Gong have also been a source
of inspiration, evident in the the forthcoming second album by Indus Rush
"Himalayan Suite & Other Tales", an eclectic mix of processed and
traditional indie pop music.
Stephen Whitby is a Londoner banished to the glens and hills of South West
Scotland, where he creates his music in quiet and serene surroundings.
About the Album The Road Ahead: Here is
the new album ready for general release on all the usual on line shops on
Nov 1st 2019. These songs have all been done in collaboration with female
Italian vocalist Barbara Benedetti, who is a producer in her own right, and
who collaborated on the production of these songs. Barbara works under the
production title of BetaPSI Project, and has been a major inspiration for me
in the co-production of these songs. The first song we completed was Follow
My Star, which is a derivative of a chord sequence I used for "The Love
Ambassadors" and "Pink Garlic".
It`s amazing how many songs you can pull out of a simple sequence! We then
went to Barbara to write some Italian lyrics for "Follow My Star", and thus
we had "Stella Del Nord" as well, primarily for our Italian speakers in 3
continents. Our main goal at the
beginning of this collaboration was to record and produce "A Bad Day in
Paris". This was an instrumental piece from the guitar which Bjorn played on
Piano, as well as adding the sax later on, and I wanted to write about the
terrible goings on in France.
