Azaan Sami Khan set to release debut album 'Main Tera'

The nine-track ensemble will mark the first time Azaan takes over vocals and song-writing

KARACHI:

Giving the music industry and a curious fan base something to look forward to, Azaan Sami Khan has announced the release of his debut solo album, stated a press release.

The music composer, who rarely takes to social media, unveiled the album cover on his Instagram, along with an exciting tracklist. Titled Main Tera, the album is Khan’s way of branching into something far more intimate than just producing music for chart-topping films of the recent times.

The first single from the album, which is also titled Main Tera, is set to release on February 10, 2021. His debut solo album will also mark the first time he takes over the vocals and song-writing units of his songs. “I wanted it to be extremely personal. It’s almost biographical in some ways. I have delved into the first time I fell in love with somebody, the first crush, the first heartbreak, you’d basically witness a lot of firsts in this as it's my first album,” he explained.

For starters, the album is an ensemble of nine tracks, namely Maahiya, Dholna, Mein Tera, Jaadugari, Aashiqui, Ik Lamha, Meri Sajna Re – which is in collaboration with Rahat Fateh Ali Khan – Zama and Tu. There will also be versions of the songs performed at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London and a “Karachi Mix” of the song Jaadugari.

With years of musical history and influences to condense, Khan aims to provide the best possible experience to his fans. “For me, the fans and the listeners are the most important. So far, they have given me so much love for my compositions in films, so it is equally important for them to know that I haven’t compromised anything when it came to sharing my own album with them. The idea is to give them the absolute best experience that I can,” he said.

The album adds another feather to Khan’s already fluffy cap, embellished by his work in films like Parey Hut Love, Superstar, and Parwaaz Hai Junoon. The release date of the album is yet to be announced, but we’re keeping our eyes peeled for what the single has in store for us.
