Tenor 1 – Pranjal Thakore, Manoj Krishna, Sudharsan Ram, Shridhar Ramesh

The recording took place in Studio C, our 20-ft high ceiling recording room while Studio A was used as the control room. The sessions were conducted by Karthik Manickavasakam and supervised by Aditya Ravindran. Sean Bout, our Chief Engineer set up and recorded the session.
We were overjoyed to receive the testimonial below from the artists at the end of the sessions.
