Arnob mentions in the sleeves, the story behind why he chose to work independently from label companies and form Adhkhana Muzik. He says that he was fed up of losing rights to his intellectual property (songs, artworks, compositions, etc.) because that was the norm when signing up with a label company. He believed it was necessary for artists to be aware of the consequences when they decide to sell their rights off like that to labels. As artists are blessed with the divine gift of expressing their thoughts, singing and playing in a way that is deemed "artistic", it is sad they are unable to pursue their music full time, and must take up another seco...
