Voices of the Delta – Documentary Soundtrack

Written by

in

Shobdo Studio partnered with acclaimed filmmaker Rashida Khanam to create an original score for her documentary Voices of the Delta, exploring the lives of fishing communities along the Sundarbans coastline.

The score weaves together field recordings captured on location, traditional Baul instruments, and orchestral elements to create an immersive audio landscape. Every musical decision served the story — quiet and contemplative for intimate moments, sweeping for the vastness of the delta.
