Where Poetry Breathes in Music: A New Extended Play for Lovers of Jibanananda Das and Bangla Verse
For poetry lovers—especially admirers of Jibanananda Das—there is something rare, emotional, and innovative arriving soon. A 6-track Extended Play (EP) is being released, blending spoken poetry with immersive music, where timeless Bangla emotions meet the rhythm of modern sound design. Five of the tracks are inspired by iconic poems, while the sixth track is a brand-new original New York Bangal song from Mohikontok, capturing the migrant heartbeat, memory, and belonging of Bangalis living abroad.
This EP is more than just listening—it is an experience. It is where poetry is not only read, but heard, felt, and musically embraced.
🎧 A Tribute to Jibanananda’s Legacy
Jibanananda Das is not simply a poet; he is a universe of longing, silence, loneliness, nature, and existential wonder. His poems touch lives across generations, whispering the melancholy beauty of Bengal, the quiet ache of separation, and the mystical rhythm of life.
This EP honors that poetic soul. The poems come alive with:
- Deep, expressive narration
- Emotional interpretation
- Layers of carefully crafted sound
- Music that breathes alongside the text
It is the poetry experience fans have always loved—now enriched with a cinematic soundscape.
🎼 Where Technology Meets Human Emotion
This project beautifully blends cutting-edge audio technology with human artistic sensitivity:
- High-quality audio production enhances clarity and atmosphere
- Music arrangements add emotional intensity without overshadowing the words
- Sound textures recreate memories, landscapes, and inner feelings
- Human interpretation keeps the poetry authentic, soulful, and pure
The result is something intimate yet powerful—like hearing poetry under a starry sky, with music echoing somewhere within the heart.
🌍 A Voice from New York: The Sixth Track
The final track of the EP introduces something deeply personal:
a brand-new original New York Bangal song by Mohikontok.
It captures the journey of identity, nostalgia, and resilience of Bangalis living in New York. It is about distance and belonging, about carrying Bengal in the soul while living in another world. The song connects heritage with present life—emotional, relatable, and proudly Bangla.
