Praveen released his debut Backed by Spirits on the now-defunct Neo Ouija imprint in early 2005. Not long after, Praveen returned from a profound journey through his family’s native India with a minidisk full of field record- ings and voices, forming the basis of Song Spun Simla, his second album released with Benoit Pioulard, on NYC's Music Related Records.
Songs Spun Simla is named in honor of the village in India from which Praveen’s family originates – it’s inseparable from his musical inspirations yet still distant and shaped largely by memory. His compostions exist on a fitting scale, then; from the stunning, expansive lead-in of “Death as a Man” to the incredibly detailed percussion of “To Scale”, there’s a sense of worldliness, history and nostalgia placed in a crucible with technology and innovation. Much like a travel- ogue, the six movements of Songs Spun Simla abut soaring highs with passages of quiet, intimate beauty to create a deeply affecting whole.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Paas Mere Kuchh Bhi Nahi Aason Ke Siva
Tu Hi Bata Sanam Kaise Do Tujhko Yeh Gham
Tujhse Abb Hum Bichadne Lage
Mere Dil Mein Tu Sada Yu Na Honge Hum Juda
Naam Tera Mere Hathon Ki Inn Lakeero Pe Likha
Kar Bhi Lo Mera Tum Yakeen
Hum Toh Tere Sang Chalne Lage
Hum Toh Tere Sang Chalne Lage

Woh Kasmein Tu Bhul Jaa Woh Waade Tu Bhul Jaa
Forget those promises and vows
Paas Mere Kuchh Bhi Nahi Aason Ke Siva
I have nothing but tears beside me
Tu Hi Bata Sanam Kaise Do Tujhko Yeh Gham
Tell me, my love, how can I give you this pain
Tujhse Abb Hum Bichadne Lage
Now we are starting to part from each other
Mere Dil Mein Tu Sada Yu Na Honge Hum Juda
May you always be in my heart, we will never be apart
Naam Tera Mere Hathon Ki Inn Lakeero Pe Likha
Your name is written on my hands in these lines
Aise Mitega Yeh Nahi
It won't fade away like this
Kar Bhi Lo Mera Tum Yakeen
Believe me, even if you don't
Hum Toh Tere Sang Chalne Lage
We started walking with you
Hum Toh Tere Sang Chalne Lage
We started walking with you
