Arooj Aftab/Vijay Iyer/Shahzad Ismaily Love In Exile

Love In Exile asks you to step inside its sense of time, to stretch out alongside these delightful & unhurriedly unfolding songs. Profound impact is achieved with minimal instrumentation: Iyer on pianos & electronics, Ismaily on bass & Moog synth & Aftab's exquisite Urdu vocals. Subtle musical interrelationships build into moments of deeply felt drama. Shimmering keyboard melodies & stirring vocals, earthy basslines, & hypnotic drones: together they create an album of stunning gravitas & beauty.
