I knew it. The moment I wrote it. That this one’s something else.
Glimpses is one of the truest songs I have ever written. As an Air Force kid that moved a lot till age 15 & then struggled with maintaining friendships when I moved to Pune, this confusion has been my lived reality! Writing this song meant I was face to face with uncomfortable truths I have run from all the time.
The best partner-in-crime who just got it,
@derric.dsouza , was the 1st to hear it & started working on it immediately. The relentless hours he has spent perfecting this, is insane & so damn inspiring to me.
I knew I wanted the music to come purely from us cuz the song is so personal. And truthfully, we really wanted to learn, get to the crux of every note & do justice to the feeling.
We worked on it for what feels like forever - together, individually, rewriting, reworking & whenever we lost perspective, we would turn to
@ronakrunwal . I had a weird intuition early on that Ronak would be a crucial part of this song & can’t be more thankful to how endlessly he has been devoted to making the sound we all imagined, come true! Love this team 💚
@guitars_n_chopsticks is also a very integral part of how this mix shaped up.
@shardulbapat helped us understand the structure of the violin section which really guided how we wrote for it. Hearing the parts played at the studio irl was EVERYTHING.
@ashishkujurmusic masterfully programmed the rest of the written strings to life!
@styledbykhushhi smashed it w visually translating the concept of Glimpses, & all that’s to come 🫣 with hype queen & tailoring wizard -
@_varshinikannan !! 👸
@sejalmakeupalchemist gave me the glow &
@__antivist__ , as always, doing his magic behind the camera 🫶🏼
@sinvbycosv GURLLL is behind this edit & the Glimpses logo.. ur da best, we did it!!! 🌱
Vlog Nid documented it all, even the parts where we felt incredibly lost at sea. I can not fathom it is out after all this time of working on it, so I am taking a sec, still holding my breath.
This song is a dream come true. I love it. I hope u love it, I hope it helps you feel not alone 💚!!!! Please do share it if it resonates with you ✨
