Whether it’s a shoegaze band from Chandigarh, thrash metal act from Visakhapatnam, rapper from Kashmir, vocal folk quartet from Kohima, Tamil indie pop act from Madurai, or a singer-songwriter from Mussoorie, Maed in India is where you’ll discover it.

Started in 2015, music nerd and ex-radio presenter Mae Mariyam Thomas showcases the best talent coming out of South Asia and its diaspora. 

The show is India’s first indie music podcast and prides itself on being the premier destination for new music, little known stories that give you a peek into the lives of independent musicians, as well as being an ongoing archive of unreleased music never heard before.

Ep.114 Maed In India Live 1.0 feat. Blackstratblues

We’ve hit the big 1-0, baby! And we’ve gone full circle (and slightly off the rails). Over the past few weeks, we’ve been rewinding through the years, bringing you our Best Of specials circa 2015. And now, we’ve gone COMPLETE inception with a ‘Best of Best Of’ special.

Yep, you heard that right. Ten years, 300+ episodes, and countless bad jokes, Mae’s back behind the mic, joined by Shaun, her partner, our COO, and head of all things punny. Together, they take turns picking their favourite tracks from across Maed in India history - breaking a few rules, trying (and failing) to be funny, and getting very sentimental along the way.

Also known in-house as BOBO (because it’s adorbs). It’s big. It’s loud. It’s emotional. It's our own block party down the road. 10 years on and still going strong.

WARNING: Please know the songs picked were very arbitrary and very dependent on our mood, work load, life drama, and bodily functions that day. Any other day and we might have picked a completely different bunch. OKChaloBye.

 

Song List:

The Koniac Net - Crawling (04:55 - 08:07)

Jose Neil Gomes - Tree Outside (09:08 - 14:33)

Vernon Noronha - Come Back Jack (15:43 - 21:09)

Uday Benegal - Looking for the Mahatma (22:42 - 27:28)

Chabuk - Pyaar (28:07 - 31:47)

Ladies Compartment - Mountain Song (34:45 - 37:40)

Shan Vincent De Paul - Die Iconic (40:22 - 42:10)

JBABE - Punch Me in My Third Eye (44:49 - 46:27)

Sampriti - Xathor (49:36 - 55:31)

Blackstratblues - Random Improv At Sunset (57:59 - 01:01:10)

Best Of Best Of (featuring Mae & Shaun)

Maed in India is 10 YEARS OLD and this episode we are spinning back to 2019! This year was a medley of emotions: righteous anger, spontaneous joy, extreme chaos, much yearning, an urge to leave parties early to go to sleep – it was also the year before we knew how bad the world could get.

 

In this episode, we celebrate songs that reminisce about the time (almost) everyone left the band, and spontaneously jammed about a long lost off-white sari with a gold zari border. 2019 was also made extra special by our very first Ladies Special, a now-annual tradition where we spotlight indie women on that oh-so-auspicious occasions of International Women's Day.  

 

The voice you hear at the top of this episode is, our very own Audio Engineer, Nihar Temkar, who goes back to being 10 and when his curious mind was fascinated by his grandfather’s cassette recorder, wondering, “how on earth does this little ribbon of tape hold music?”

 

Song List:

Sid Sriram - 2 am Prayer (04:50 - 09:01)

MC Manmeet Kaur - Liberal Slavery (10:14 - 12:57)

Aankh Micholi - Sacchai (13:32 - 18:48)

The Fanculos - Can I Ask You A Rhetorical Question (19:24 - 24:23)

Ladies Compartment & Friends - Conversation (25:24 - 33:19)

Swadesi - Akhri Mauka (33:53 -  36:47)

Abhilasha Sinha - After Party (38:06 - 42:13)

Blackstratblues - [Random Improv At Sunset] (43:16 - 47:11)

tig3rbabu - Maria (48:34 - 54:56)

Voctronica - [Spontaneous Jam] (55:50 - 58:43)

Kamakshi Khanna Collective - Breathe (59:47 - 01:05:31)

aswekeepsearching - Rooh (01:08:18 - 01:12:41)

Fame The Band - Over And Out (01:13:17 - 01:17:02)

The Year Everyone Found Their Soundcloud Password

Maed in India is 10 YEARS OLD and we’re going back to 2018. It was a year of hip hop, prog rock, pop, RnB and some unforgettable Maed moments: we hit our 150th episode (!!), got roasted by Benny Dayal’s band Funktuation, and chatted with the gals from Ladies Compartment about feminism and constipation in the same breath. Essentials, I tell you.

 

We also heard Smalltalk and Enkore jam on a song nobody can agree on the name of, had a band vanish from social media, and discovered how one drunk best friend’s wild interpretation of a riff ended up inspiring a whole music video.

 

The intro voice over this week is by Agent Q (aka Quoyina), talking about her experiments with ink and orange juice as a kid to channel her inner detective.

 

Chabuk - Kaun Hip Hop (02:27 - 06:21)

Smalltalk - Freedom ft. Enkore (10:08 - 13:32)

Raghav Meattle - I’m Always Right (15:18 - 18:16)

Funktuation - Oora Paru (17:14 - 22:41) 

Ladies Compartment - Logo Song (25:15 - 28:29)

UNOHU - Afterglow

Kimochi Youkai - Round & Round (36:48 - 40:39)

Dhruv Visvanath - Jungle (42:48 - 46:41)

Paradigm Shift - Wajah (47:34 - 53:11)

Prateek Kuhad - did you/fall apart (54:08 - 56:11)
