The Threshold of Coolidity

Subhamoy

Dubbed: Subhamoy Pal

Other Shouts: Pauli, Moy, Shubho

Picture: The guy with the huge smile on his face, and yeah the keyboards in front of him. 

This dude, who hardly misses a note on his dual-synth setup is the founder of my band Antardhwani. Aiming at Sparsh, 2005 he got together a band of kids who just wanted to play music never knowing that the thing would stick. I joined the band after an ad looking for a guitarist, and 6 months from then here we are 4 shows, 6 original compositions later: a full fledged band. 

One day he will compose the greatest keyboard piece of all times and it shall be dubbed "The Pauli Exclusive Principle". Also, if we ever play widout him I will name the show "The Pauli Exclusion Principle" .. haha i am such a geek! 

Besides adding notes that make the melody, Subhamoy handles the mixing for our original compositions. Pauli's addiction to tinker around with software makes this daunting task a rather fun one. In addition, he manages the band (hosting practices, hiring gear for shows), and is the treasurer of the band (yes we do get paid, yes we treasure our money, and yes we blow our treasure faster than a eight year old blows his allowance)

Pauli and I have spent many an evening plotting the bands near and distant future over beers; the near ones have worked, lets see where the distant ones take us..)

In other news, Pauli has a weakness for Bombay Gin, barbecue chips (which he stocks at home, and I empty out at our Sunday practices for breakfast), and some new computer game that he and Supratik talk about and ooops I forgot its name.

To the band, and its conspirators: I raise my glass!  gulp!
