Interview with Shaarathyvarmha S
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: I wrote lyrics for an independent Tamil track where the artist wanted a mix of modern and devotional feel. The song connected deeply with the audience, and I was proud to be the lyricist shaping that emotion.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I’m currently writing Tamil indie tracks and experimenting with blending Tamil lyrics with soft English hooks for crossover appeal.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: At the moment, I focus on my own services, but I’m open to collaborating with singers and producers through the platform.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Digital — it’s faster, flexible, and makes it easier to collaborate with artists worldwide. Sometimes both where possible.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: To always deliver original, heartfelt lyrics that reflect their vision and connect with listeners.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Turning emotions into words that someone else can sing and connect with an audience. It feels magical.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: They often ask if I can adjust lyrics to their melody. My answer: Yes, I can align lyrics to fit existing tunes or create lyrics first to inspire the composition.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That lyric writing is quick. Writing meaningful lyrics takes time to balance emotion, rhythm, and singability.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: I ask about the theme, mood, genre, and whether they want Tamil, English, or a mix of both. I also check if they prefer poetic depth or simple catchy lines.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Be clear about the emotion or message you want the song to carry. Even a single line of inspiration is enough for me to build a complete lyrical idea around it.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Notebook, pen, laptop, microphone, and reference headphones — enough to keep writing and recording ideas.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I began writing poetry in Tamil during my student days, which slowly grew into lyric writing. Over the years, I’ve worked on independent Tamil projects and developed my craft into songwriting.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Poetic, emotional, and melody-friendly. My style blends traditional lyric depth with modern song flow.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: I’d love to collaborate with Sid Sriram because his emotive singing style perfectly matches the kind of soulful and poetic lyrics I enjoy creating.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: When writing lyrics, always leave “breathing space” in your lines — simple words between heavy ones. It makes the song flow more naturally for the singer.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Mostly Tamil indie, film-style ballads, devotional music, and soft pop. I also write fusion-style lyrics for tracks that mix Tamil and English.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Expressive lyric writing in Tamil and simple, catchy English songwriting. I can take any theme and turn it into words that blend with melody naturally.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring emotional depth, poetic flow, and a balance between modern appeal and cultural authenticity. My lyrics are designed to connect with listeners on a personal level.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I start by understanding the client’s theme or emotion. Then I brainstorm lyrical concepts, shape verses and choruses, and refine them until the song feels both poetic and singable.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I work with a professional writing setup, reference recording tools, and a DAW for aligning lyrics with melody. This allows me to deliver polished drafts and rough vocal guides.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I’m inspired by A.R. Rahman, Anirudh Ravichander, and Sid Sriram for the way they connect music with emotions. Their ability to merge poetry with sound influences my writing.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I mostly write original Tamil lyrics for indie artists, film-style compositions, and devotional tracks. I also provide English lyrics with simple yet meaningful vocabulary that blends smoothly with melodies.
