Writing and recording
In 1995, when Arnob, was a student of Art College in Santiniketan, he shared room with Taufiqe Riaz in the hostel. Taufiqe used to write songs, which he gave to Arnob every morning before going to class.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Throughout the 1990s, Taufiqe wrote many songs which were tuned by Arnob, some songs were also co-written by him [Arnob]. The first track of side two, "Shomoy Kate (Time Goes On)", features a poem written by Arnob. Though there were many songs in his debut album written by his then wife Sahana Bajpaie, this album features only one song written by her, "Tomar Jonno (For You)".Script error: No such module "Unsubst". The song "Tui Ki Janishna (Don't You Know)", has two versions. One which features Sahana's vocals and the other features Junaina, Wadid, Milita and Prescila. Arnob's experimentation with his songs changed in this album, as this has much more art rock sound than the debut album. Arnob played esraj on "Tomar Jonno (For You)" and Jubair played flute on "Prokrito Jol (Natural Water)".Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
