Hello everybody ,

dHun, the Hindi word for folksong or melody—embodies the profound Indo-European soul of music. 

While Western European folk musicians often rely on two familiar scales—the cheerful major and the melancholic minor—the Indian tradition offers an extraordinarily rich palette of scales, known as ragas. Each raga is linked to a specific time of day, a seasonal transition, or a particular mood, carrying with it a deep symbolic meaning and atmosphere.

Tom Theuns and Aurélie Dorzée drew inspiration from these sometimes unconventional, yet always enchanting ragas, seamlessly weaving them with familiar European dance forms such as waltzes, mazurkas, bourrées, polkas, etc… 

Hence, each track bears the name of the corresponding raga.

Together with mesmerizing vocals and virtuoso string work, they achieve a poetic and groundbreaking reinterpretation of traditional dance music.

cheers
