When you binge-watch dramas, it probably makes Tarana Marwah very happy. The 29-year-old composer has contributed to the soundtracks of Made in Heaven (2019, 2023), Dahaad (2023), Modern Love (2022) and Bombay Begums (2021).
If you're into electronic music, she's happier still. Under her stage name, Komorebi, the singer, producer and multi-instrumentalist has been releasing singles since her debut album, Soliloquy, in 2017. Earlier this year, she released a music video with American developer Epic Games' graphics game engines Unreal Engine. And she recently did a listening session with London radio presenter Bobby Friction as part of the BBC Asian Network.
But if you're also an anime fan, you've hit Marwah's trifecta. Accompanying the seven tracks on her new album, The Fall, is a 30-page graphic novel featuring Kiane, a rogue alien who crashlands on Earth, complete with a cute, loyal alien sidekick. Marwah has collaborated with 50 artists on The Fall. Among them are Blackstrat Blues, Dhruv Visvanath, Sahil Vasudeva and Easy Wanderlings. The comic has been created by upcoming electronica artist Sijya and illustrator Neelav Ghosh. It is available online at The Comic Book Store.
