Est. 2026 · Bengaluru, India · Magic of Indian Sound
The question was never just how to preserve Indian music. It was how to set it free. To build the movement on a global stage — and ensure the musicians who carry this heritage earn from its future.
What if a Ghatam recorded in a Chennai studio could power a hip-hop track in Lagos? What if a Kanjira loop from Tamil Nadu found its way into a Berlin film score — and the musician who played it earned from every use?
That is what living preservation looks like.
Preservation is often treated as nostalgia. But we believe it should be alive, evolving, and economically empowering. Not just protecting the sound — but building an ecosystem where it can travel, transform, and generate livelihoods.
That is what The Indian Sound Project stands for.
Kiran spent two decades building companies. Early CSR consulting in India. Then the corporate world — product development, strategy, and eventually founding Tydy, an enterprise automation platform acquired in June 2024.
Through all of it, one constant: a deep love for music, across multiple genres. And a wonder why Indian instruments & sounds, centuries old in temples, and other places — weren't reaching the world the way they deserved.
The Indian Sound Project is what happens when a builder meets an obsession. Based in Bengaluru, Kiran set out to build the infrastructure that Indian music never had — a fair revenue model for artists, and a direct pipeline into the global music production community.
04 — The Artist Promise ---------------------
Every pack credits the artist. A percentage of every sale — from every producer, anywhere in the world — returns directly to the musician who recorded it. No buyouts. No anonymity. The archive preserves not just the sound, but the person behind it.
