Evening Music
Nagesh Kukunoor, the "Hyderabad Blues" chap, has been consistently good at picking soundtracks for his movies. I just happened to discover the above track from his 2006 movie "Dor", and it* perfectly fits this evening's mood as I write this seated at a fifteenth floor hotel window, watching night fall over blue crescent of Lake Ontario, stretching into the horizon. I also think I like songs with background refrains.
* This is another lovely song from the same movie

Night Music
Sachal Vasandani's music was blogged about on Sepia Mutiny - and as the post had mentioned jazz, I went running to find his very lovely music. The brother got mad skillz, and more than the above song, the song "Storybook Fiction" would have been perfect for tonight's mood only if I could have found it in full.
This chance discovery also made me remember an afternoon from way back in late 2001, when I first heard the music of Norah Jones in the Ponce de Leon Borders Bookstore in Atlanta on one of my weekend pilgrimages, and knew I had struck gold - all this way way before she hit big time. I wouldn't be surprised if Sachal repeats Norah's trick.

Note: This blog post made me remember one of the most lovely movie soundtracks, that of "Cinema Paradiso", this evening. I have watched this movie five or six times so far, and have always found it magical. Enjoy!
