Trilok names Suno as platform partner
MUMBAI: Collective Artists Network announced a new collaboration between its AI band Trilok and Suno, where Trilok will also serve as a Suno brand ambassador. The collaboration pairs Trilok’s creative direction and original compositions with Suno’s powerful music-production tools for generation, arrangement and high-quality song delivery.
Since its debut, Trilok has released music that blends devotional themes with contemporary sounds, introducing traditional stories and melodies to new audiences. Partnering with Suno opens the door to even more possibilities.
Suno’s strong presence in the international music-tech space will help bring Trilok’s sound to listeners far beyond India, while Collective Artists Network’s deep roots in the country’s music and cultural networks will help AI-driven music find more ears, and hearts, here at home.
Collective Artists Network founder & group CEO, Vijay Subramaniam said: “Trilok started as a small experiment in blending tradition and technology, and it’s grown into something so much greater. Partnering with Suno has taken that journey to a new level, helping bring the music to global audiences. This is a collaboration I’m proud of, one that keeps the heart of the music intact while opening new ways for people around the world to connect with it.”
“We’re fortunate to work with music creators all over the world to help bring their visions to life,” said Suno chief music officer Paul Sinclair. “Trilok is using the newest creative tools to push musical storytelling into exciting territory, blending heritage and innovation in ways that weren’t possible before. At the same time, they’re building a genuine artist-fan connection, using these advancements to create new opportunities for collaboration.”
The first Trilok releases with Suno are slated for late 2025.

Mumbai gears up for the ultimate Global Youth Festival this December
MUMBAI: Mumbai is about to witness something it has never seen before. The Global Youth Festival arrives on 6-7 December at Jio World Garden with 15,000 attendees and 60-plus experiences sprawled across six sprawling arenas. On its sixth edition, this is no ordinary jamboree—it is a carefully orchestrated collision of wellness, adventure, arts, music, yoga and social change.
Chief Minister of Maharashtra Devendra Fadnavis will throw open the proceedings with a landmark ceremony, signalling the state’s backing for a movement that has already mobilised youth across 20-plus countries and 170-plus cities. The sheer scale is staggering: 500-plus volunteers powering the machine, 600,000-plus volunteer hours logged across previous editions, and millions of lives touched annually.
The speaker roster is formidable. Diipa Büller-Khosla and Dipali Goenka, chief executive of Welspun India, will share the stage with Malaika Arora in conversations spanning leadership, creativity and culture. Union Minister for Sports and Youth Affairs Mansukhbhai Mandaviya will also attend, reinforcing GYF’s reach into the corridors of power.
But this is not mere talk. The Solaris Mainstage promises concerts from renowned Indian artists. Innerverse delivers a 360-degree LED spectacle of art, technology and sound. The Love and Care Arena houses hands-on projects spanning women’s empowerment, child education, rural upliftment and animal welfare. India’s largest outdoor sound-healing experience awaits. An inflatable obstacle course, neon drifter karts and open-sky bouldering cater to thrill-seekers.
Some have branded GYF the “Coachella of Consciousness.” Others call it “India’s Largest Sober Festival.” Spiritual visionary Pujya Gurudevshri Rakeshji, who inspired the festival, will deliver the Wisdom Masterclass. Every rupee goes to charity.
After Mumbai comes Kolkata on 14 December. New York looms next year. For one weekend in December, Mumbai becomes the epicentre of youth-driven change—and nothing will be quite the same after.
