About ‘Atma’:
‘Atma’ is a short story about introspection and self inquiry. The EP or mini-album contains a collection of personal compositions written by guitarist and composer Prashant Samlal, performed by himself and his quintet ‘Atma’. The music is inspired by dealing with different facets of one’s mind, reflecting on fear, love, creativity and the temporal state of emotions. And how expressing oneself through music and art can be seen as a way of navigating the mind.
