Ishaan Nigam’s ‘Jabse Tu’ is striking a chord: A soulful prelude to the EP ‘Maheen Ishq’

Ishaan Nigam releases ‘Jabse Tu’, an emotional ambient-pop track blending classical elements, marking the beginning of his debut EP ‘Maheen Ishq’.

Mumbai, 21^st April 2026: In a music landscape craving authenticity, Ishaan Nigam arrives with a quiet yet powerful statement. His latest release, ‘Jabse Tu’, serves as the first glimpse into his debut EP ‘Maheen Ishq’, and it’s already resonating for its emotional honesty. Blending ambient pop with Indian classical nuances, the track unfolds like a memory, soft, lingering, and deeply personal, marking a significant moment in India’s indie music space.

‘Jabse Tu’ explores the quiet aftermath of love and loss, the kind that doesn’t shout, but stays. Written, composed, and sung by Ishaan himself, the song transforms lived experiences into a delicate sonic landscape. The addition of sitar by Megha Rawoot adds a textured depth, creating a fusion where tradition meets modern minimalism.

What makes this release stand out is its restraint. Instead of overproduction, Ishaan leans into subtlety, letting melody, silence, and storytelling do the heavy lifting. Backed by production from Shikhar Srivastav and Swarup Chattopadhyay, the track maintains a fine balance between contemporary soundscapes and classical sensitivity. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the softest songs leave the deepest impact.

With over 350K Spotify streams and a steadily growing audience, Ishaan Nigam is quietly building a space of his own. ‘Maheen Ishq’ promises to expand this sonic world further, but ‘Jabse Tu’ already sets the tone, introspective, vulnerable, and deeply human. In a fast-moving digital era, this is the kind of music that asks you to slow down, and feel.
