Around the year 2015, I started experimenting with writing songs using a vocal looping machine. I laid down beats by beat-boxing, built bass lines and chords by applying modulation and effects to my voice and composed songs over the created soundscapes. In 2017 I recorded some of this work and recently I made this lyric video for one of the songs. It features some of my own watercolour paintings. I hope you enjoy it!

‘Time’ - Composed and performed by: Nina Khosla
This moment is so perfect, I’ll put it on the page
I’ll take a photograph, but it will still go away
Never to come back. This is a one-way track
But I don’t want to go on
Time don’t go so fast, I wanna make it last
I wanna pause it like a film, stop it like a clock
Press it in a book, secure it with a lock
Hold it in my hand, have it be at my command
Make it go on
Time don’t go so fast, I wanna make it last
Don’t go so fast
This moment is so sweet, I wish that I could keep it
I’d put it in my pocket for later when I need it
But how can I hold on, this moment it is gone
And with it everything I wanted it to go on
Time don’t go so fast, I wanna make it last
