Aditya Rao in the past has worked with AR Rahman and has also worked on some covers and mashups like the Indian Classical version of Ed Sheeran's Shape Of You which went viral. Speaking about SND Aditya says “SND has gone through multiple iterations dating as far back as 2011, when I met the featured artist and songwriter, Shri Sriram. Shri is an award-winning bassist, composer, producer and arranger whose dynamic quest for new and collaborative ways of making music has taken him all over the world. We met at a hotel room in Mumbai, quickly set up our remote recording gear, and immediately hit it off with multiple ideas that fused genres together to truly create a sound that bends the norms and colors outside of the margins.” he also adds “SND has been recorded, produced, and developed in so many different locations and studios. I’ve recorded inside closets, at hotel rooms, in echoey bedrooms, and in my home studio. I’ve produced mid-flight, in-between meals, and in-between moving from Los Angeles to Austin, TX. And I think this unconventional way of getting things together, all came together in the most beautiful manner."
