15th October, 2025‘Sounds of Kumbha’ is a landmark global music album presented by New-Age Indian classical singer and producer Siddhant Bhatia. Commissioned as a cultural initiative by the Government of Uttar Pradesh, and created in collaboration with Network18, HistoryTV18 and Universal Music India (UMI), a division of Universal Music Group (UMG), the 12-track and 12-music video album gathers over 50 artists from around the world to capture the living spirit of the Mahakumbha, the world’s largest peaceful gathering.
Described as a “sonic memoir” and “cosmic postcard” of the Mahakumbha, the album blends live field recordings from Prayagraj with ancient mantras, contemporary music composed and curated by SoulTrax Studios New Delhi, and Binaural Beats that are scientifically tuned frequencies designed for deep, headphone-led meditative and immersive experiences.
With ‘Sounds of Kumbha’ featuring 7-illustrious producers: Siddhant Bhatia, Jim “Kimo” West, Madi Das, Ron Korb, Charu Suri, Devraj Sanyal and Raghav Mehta and considering the scale and vastness of the project, it may be entered for consideration in the 68th GRAMMY® Awards in the Global Music Album category.
Siddhant Bhatia himself is no stranger to global acclaim and is a Grammy ballot-listed and Grammy acknowledged new-age singer with multiple entries to his credit. His research paper on the effects of Theta Binaural Beats on commercial music has brought many interesting projects to light like the New-Age album, ‘Gratitude Joy 3’ with 4x Grammy winner Paul Avgerinos. He is now garnering a lot of international attention with Sounds of Kumbha.
