Professional Sitar Studio Sessions & Custom Music Production
From remote session recording to full-track production, let's bring the soul of the sitar into your sound. Authentic lineage meets modern studio quality.
A jam session at the legendary Abbey Road Studios. I have experience recording in the world's top studios and can bring that level of quality and professionalism to your project.
In the studio, focused on the details. I handle every aspect of the recording process, ensuring the highest quality sound for your track, whether it's a single or a full album.

Playing the Surbahar, or 'bass sitar', in my home studio. I use a variety of traditional instruments to create unique textures and deep, meditative sounds for my compositions.
Exploring a fast-paced improvisation on the Surbahar. My technical skills on various instruments allow me to create complex and dynamic arrangements for any musical project.

Composing a new 'Sargam' or melody in Raga Gaud Sarang. My process often starts with a simple melodic idea, which I then develop into a full-fledged composition for my clients or students.
About Studio Sessions: The Making Of Your Track
When you book a session, you aren't just getting a file. I deliver distinct, high-res 48kHz WAV stems—Foundation, Flavor, and Solo—giving you the flexibility to mix the sitar perfectly into your project, whether you are working with heavy trap 808s or acoustic ensembles. We get it right at the source, using the same studio techniques I use for my own releases.
Whether you need a single sitar hook or a full-scale orchestral composition, my studio workflow is built to be seamless. I work with clients globally, from New York to Mumbai, recording in top-tier spaces like Abbey Road.
What you can expect:
- Total Flexibility: My remote recording packages provide both dry and processed stems. You get raw signals for your own mixing or pre-processed chains with my signature reverb if you want that polished sound right out of the box.
- Legacy Quality: I use custom instruments crafted by my family at Rikhi Ram, paired with industry-standard Neumann or AKG microphones. You’re getting the authentic sound of a master-crafted instrument, not a sample library.
- Clear Process: We start with your brief—whether it's a specific Raga for a meditative track or a fast-paced improvisation for a film score. I handle the composition and recording, with a standard turnaround of 5-7 working days.
Custom Beat Production: If you need more than just a sitar take, I also offer full-track production. This includes everything from Sitar Trap and Lo-Fi beats to complex cinematic arrangements. We’ll nail the emotional tone, whether you're aiming for Veer (courage) or Shringhar (romantic), ensuring the final product hits international broadcast standards. If you have an idea, let's turn it into sound.
