TINCTURES is a duo from Bangalore and Berlin that explores the nature of consonance and dissonance on piano and guitar.
Together, Nishad Pandey (gt) and Aman Mahajan (pn) constitute a compositional and improvisational laboratory creating lush and intricate sound-worlds through tinctures of jazz, European and Indian classical music, contemporary influences, imagination, and aesthetic, literary and mathematical concepts. Tinctures released their debut album
Heads and Tales in 2021, with their second album
moments, remote created virtually during the pandemic and slated for release in early 2023, supported by Goethe-Institut Germany.
They have performed and conducted workshops in India and Germany at a wide variety of venues ranging from house concerts to auditoriums.
In January 2023, Tinctures plans a series of concerts and workshops, Let Sound Be Sound, in which they share their eclectic approach to making music through both teaching and performing, giving insights into their compositional and improvisational processes.
