I’ve always believed that music is one of the few universal languages that can carry tradition, emotion, and innovation in a single phrase. My name is CR Srikanth, and I am an Indian composer working across classical, electronic, and film music. With over 250 original compositions to date, my work is shaped by both Indian classical traditions (Carnatic and Hindustani) and Western orchestral forms.
Out of this musical intersection came VS Pop™ — a genre I created to explore the space between cinematic scoring and modern ambient-pop. VS Pop™ blends orchestral richness, ambient textures, and electronic rhythms into a smooth, expressive listening experience. It is music designed to feel intimate yet cinematic; deeply rooted yet forward-looking.
To bring this sound to life and offer a home to similar creative voices, I founded VS Pop Records LLP — a label dedicated to developing and showcasing music in the VS Pop™ style. Through this platform, I’ve released a series of original works, including:
-
CR Melody Avenue
-
Electric Heart
-
Ultrasonnix
-
Resonance
-
Fyuzion
-
Quarzt
-
Pryzm
Each project represents a different emotional and sonic narrative within the VS Pop™ framework. These releases are available through the VS Pop Records YouTube channel, and more are on the way.
I’ve also completed advanced studies in Film and TV Scoring from Berklee College of Music, where I deepened my approach to writing for visual storytelling. This has shaped my music not only as standalone compositions but also as a scoring language for film, series, and digital content.
Reach and Recognition
My music has reached audiences through:
-
20+ NACC-reporting college radio stations
-
100+ spins on Mediabase-reporting FM stations
-
1,000+ digital/FM radio plays worldwide
-
100,000+ in-store radio plays in global retail environments
As I continue to grow the label and expand my catalog, my mission remains clear: to create music that is emotionally honest, musically original, and open to collaboration. VS Pop™ is more than a genre — it’s a creative space for composers and listeners who want to explore something new yet grounded.
