- (1888PressRelease) April 01, 2022 - MUMBAI: It’s been 6 months now and city’s budding musician Shashank Chandel, aka Shash, is out with his latest single, Soul in English. The song, which also has soft heart touching piano chills with his vocals, looks at mental stress, finally giving out a message of self-discovery and soulmates.
Shashank Chandel says he came out with the composition exactly 2 years back, but recomposed it since it’s a subject that many can relate to at this point. “I felt like soul the song is beautiful and filled with a lot of the things that we have all gone through in the out life. People are emotionally down and frustrated. It was during the stress hours and heartbreaks that it hit me that I could talk about these things,” says Shashank Chandel.
He further adds, “I just realised how i can make my audience to take some time off and think about my next set of releases should be and where my musical careere can be headed.”.

Also, this is my way of paying tribute to the people of india and overseas who have shown interest in light music and ofcourse to my music,” says Shashank Chandel, whose last Album was House Of Cosmosis, Vol.1, which defines into Epic electrifying scenario in non lyric music.
