Bringing the sounds of the soil to Season 10, Attaullah Esakhelvi & Sanwal Esakhelvi narrate a sordid tale of the depravity that is found within the realms of the material world. Attaullah Esakhelvi’s unique yet familiar folk tone is brutally apt in depicting the pain of coming to terms with the illusions that surround us. Shuja Haider creates a unique soundscape by pairing this with the soft yet electric energy of Sanwal Esakhelvi’s tone. Upon a backdrop of groovy and emotive backing vocals, accented with the banjo and flute, this song is a journey towards uncovering the truth.
