New Delhi, Thursday, 15th January, 2026: Loya at Taj Palace, New Delhi unveiled JASHN, the second edition of the iconic restaurant brand’s signature music album, created exclusively as an integral part of its immersive dining experience. Curated and composed by acclaimed musician, singer & composer, Shreyas Patkar, Jashn is inspired by the eternal harmony of the five elements – Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Space, and their intrinsic relationship with Loya’s distinctive cooking techniques.
Designed to deepen the sensorial culinary journey through the North at Loya, each track reflects the spirit of its element, echoing the restaurant’s expressive culinary traditions – from the art of smoking (dhungar) and tempering (baghaar) to open-fire cooking on a sigdi and hand-grinding spices on a traditional sil-batta. Jashn creates a multi-dimensional harmony between cuisine and composition, where what is heard gently enriches what is tasted and felt, mirroring the rhythm of the dining experience.
Shreyas Patkar, who has helmed the Loya album since its inception, has harmonised Indian classical roots with refined contemporary Western sound to create an elevated lounge-style experience for Jashn. A rich orchestration of instruments, including Santoor, Sitar, Zitar, Ghatam, Flute, Tabla, Drums, Bass Guitar and Acoustic Guitar, have brought together each elemental narrative to life, echoing the craftsmanship and rootedness that lie at the heart of Loya.
Speaking on the launch, Taljinder Singh, Senior Vice President and Brand Custodian, IHCL said, “Loya is a celebration of provenance, cultural memory and heartfelt hospitality. With Jashn, the second version of Loya’s signature music album, we continued with our endeavour to extend this philosophy beyond the plate, into the world of sound and atmosphere. This refreshed edition enriches the emotional resonance of the dining experience and reflects our commitment to crafting immersive moments that connect deeply with our culinary heritage while embracing contemporary elegance,”
Jashn is available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music, Instagram Audio & YouTube, and forms an integral part of the dining experience across all three Loya locations in New Delhi, Bengaluru & Mumbai.
