Iyer

Unabashedly eclectic yet firmly rooted third culture artist Iyer has released his latest album ‘Farewell’, a collection of tracks that are equal parts of booty shaking as well as nostalgia. With a wide range of influences that include Tamil film music, 90s Bollywood, dancehall, hip-hop and pop, all of which are sewn together with threads of footwork and an undying love for artists like DJ Rashad and AR Rahman, Iyer has juxtaposed his varied tastes together and augmented them with his own life experiences of being a 'third culture Tamilian’ to create a sound that keeps up his own identity with the fast paced cultural changes that every generation is exposed to. All in all, ‘Farewell’ happens to a be a highly gratifying aural culture clash.
