Sudip’s solo attempt “Prayas”
7th September, 2007 (Friday)

Sudip gurung from “Aastha” is soon to release his solo project “Prayas” in the local market. Nepali music admirers abroad have already tasted Sudip’s music through his promotional CD which he prepared especially for his fans in the UK, Canada, Japan and Hong Kong. The major objective of the promotional campaign was to give an exclusive preview of what is coming out and also to collect the feedback and incorporate it in the upcoming album.

“The response is good!” Sudip says.
The CD cover is designed by Dreams & Ideas Pvt. Ltd it has 3 singles, Pagalpan, Ke Garyo and Suwas. The tracks are recorded in London and are arranged by a Britain born Ghanaian producer Gabriel Ammah who has previously worked with talented artists both in the UK and the US.

Sudip plans a worldwide release of the album through SAV this September. The album will contain 10 tracks following some R&B and Pop genre. The lyrics in the songs revolve around the usual relationship issues and optimism towards life. Apart from the 3 songs on the promotional CD, 7 are recorded in Nepal at the Phoenix Studio which are arranged by Sanzip Rai and Manoj KC. Sudip himself has taken care of the lyrics, music and the vocals.

After “Aastha” was introduced in 2003, Sudip and Naren certainly were the “Hot Cakes” of the season. Now four years down the line, we have the solo albums from both the talented artists.

The question that the fans have now is why didn’t Sudip use the name “Aastha” and why are they coming out with solo albums?
Sudip says, “Naren came out with the album first so he used the name. I was abroad for studies and when I was there in the UK, I used to write songs and composed myself despite the time limitations and everything. So, as this was all me and my personal taste and creation, I thought of bringing out this album. Naren and I are still together and will be coming out with an album by 2009… honestly! For now, I think it’s more advantageous to our listeners; they individually got to hear our music and preferences”.

Right now Sudip is working on his official website www.sudipmusic.com which is powered by Dreams & Ideas Pvt. Ltd which is under construction.
