Various genres of music have existed since time immemorial but the art of combining them to create a unique sound is relatively new.

This is what The Fusion Project has to offer, beautiful music created by intertwining Indian classical sound with a Western voice and instruments.

The band was launched in 2015 after an Indian flautist, a blues singer and songwriter met by chance at Oxford University . Jam sessions had more members come on board and the band soon garnered a large fan following. It also had the honour of sharing stage with Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.

Urwa Hocane released a song and we're speechless

As Closer by The Chainsmokers broke the internet and grabbed the number one spot on billboards, The Fusion Project has done their version of the song and given a unique touch to it.

See for yourself.
