about

26TH OF AUGUST SEE’S THE RELEASE OF THE SECOND VENTURE FROM YATIN SRIVASTAVA PROJECT AND FRIENDS - A REMIX OF THE ACCLAIMED PANDEMIC PERIOD QUARANTINE EP TITLED QUARANTINE EP1.5. THE EP FEATURES THREE DIFFERENT REMIXES OF THE SONGS OFF OF THE QUARANTINE EP, WITH ALL OF THEM PRESENTING THE ORIGINAL VISION OF THE COLLABORATIVE EP IN A FRESH MUSICAL LIGHT. SPANNING THREE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GENRES, THE EP FEATURES REMIXES FROM NEW DELHI HIP-HOP COLLECTIVE SHOALS, A CLASSIC ELECTRONIC MIX BY NEW DELHI BASED THE’ANG THERON (MADHATTER) AND A DRUM N BASS REMIX FROM LONDON BASED ARTIST AND DJ BIGWAFT.

THE INITIAL IDEA OF THE REMIX EP STEMMED FROM YATIN REMIXING ONE OF NEW DELHI BASED ELECTRONIC ARTIST KOMOREBI’S SONG ‘HIDE’ FOR HER ALBUM NINSHIKI. YATIN ADDS, “THE REMIX THAT I MADE FOR TARANA WAS REALLY FUN TO DO AND I THOUGHT THAT TRYING TO DO THAT FOR MY OWN SET OF SONGS WOULD BE A BRILLIANT OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE OTHER ARTISTS THAT I LOVE COME IN AND REIMAGINE MY SONGS THROUGH THEIR MUSICAL LENSES.” WHAT ESSENTIALLY STARTED FROM A CALL OUT ON INSTAGRAM STORIES EVENTUALLY YIELDS AN ECLECTIC AMALGAMATION OF ARTISTS THAT HAVE ADDED A COMPLETELY UNIQUE IDENTITY TO THE YATIN SRIVASTAVA PROJECT SOUND PEOPLE HAVE TO COME TO KNOW AND GROW FOND OF.

ASIDE FROM THE REMIXES, THE EP ALSO FEATURES THE FIRST FULL-FLEDGED SONG FROM YATIN SINCE THE BAND’S 2018 RELEASE OF THEIR FIRST RECORD ‘CHAOS // DESPAIR’. ‘I WISH YOU WOULD STAY UP LATE AND DANCE WITH ME’ IS INHERENTLY A GENRE-LESS SONG THAT CAPTURES A UNIQUE AND NEW SIDE OF YSP’S SOUND. YATIN ADDS, “INITIALLY, I DECIDED JUST TO LEAVE IT TO THE SIDE CONSIDERING HOW ALIEN IT WAS TO ANYTHING I’D DONE MUSICALLY IN THE PAST, BUT I THOUGHT THIS REMIX EP WAS THE PERFECT PLACE TO PUT IT BECAUSE IN A SENSE, IT’S A REMIX OF THE STYLES OF MUSIC I DELVE INTO. CONSIDERING THE POINT OF THE EP WAS TO TAKE ALREADY EXISTING MUSICAL PIECES AND TRANSFORM THEM MAJORLY, I THINK THIS SONG PERFECTLY ENCAPSULATES MY INTENTION OF WANTING TO REMIX EVERYTHING - INCLUDING THE SOUND YSP HAS COME TO BE KNOWN FOR.”

TAKING INSPIRATIONS FROM ARTISTS SUCH AS BON IVER, KANYE WEST, 070 SHAKE ALONG WITH THE INSTRUMENTAL ROCK SENSIBILITIES OF ARTISTS SUCH AS POLYPHIA AND CHON, THE SONG IS A CLASSIC THROWBACK TO THE MELONCHOLIA OF PREVIOUS YSP RELEASES, REJUVENATED WITH A RE-CONTEXTUALIZATION OF THE YSP SOUND SHOWCASES THE ARTIST’S ABILITIES AS MORE OF AN ALL-ROUND SONGWRITER AND PRODUCER AS OPPOSED TO BEING CONFINED TO THE NICHE OF PROGRESSIVE ROCK/METAL. SUPPORTED BY A CLOTHING COLLECTION AND LIMITED-EDITION PRODUCTS AND COLLECTIBLES, THE EP SETS TO ADD ANOTHER LANDMARK IN THE ARTIST’S EVER-EXPANDING CREATIVE CAREER. ALTHOUGH THE SECOND YSP FULL LENGTH ALBUM HAS BEEN IN QUESTION SINCE THE START OF THE PANDEMIC, THE QUARANTINE SERIES HAS GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO THE ARTIST TO SHOWCASE ALL THE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT INFLUENCE HIM AND THE SOUND THAT CONTINUES TO EVOLVE, UNTIL THE NEXT OPUS ARRIVES FROM YATIN AND HIS EVER-CHANGING AVENGERS-ESQUE TEAM OF MUSICIANS.
