Mali reeled in producer Keshav Dhar, vocalist Aria Nanji, and drummer Jehangir Jehangir on this project. [Mali - Semi Automatic Butane (Official Music Video)](https://www.youtube.com/embed/UI8CEkph5Vw?feature=oembed) ***Mali- Semi Automatic Butane*** Mali’s new track unfurls with head-bobbling and percussive movement, progressing to chugging electric and acoustic guitar sections. Her delicate yet rugged vocals guide the single, accompanied by Aria Nanji shifting in stellar vocal harmonies. A music video for the song was also released, showing Mali driving into open forest grounds as it evokes visuals of fictional characters Furiosa or Sarah Connor, along with musician Apurv ‘Lala’ Isaac shooting a toy firearm. Video director Naman Saraiya also called back a shot from ‘[Walk Away](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsOQWjaAL2E),’ with Mali seated on the same couch in both music videos. Since the song’s premier in mid-October, it has clocked in over 50,000 [streams](https://open.spotify.com/artist/4JSAaGJ5mNSfG0MBxDFQZN?si=9Co_9mTdTg6dAn0v3XuRqw&nd=1) on Spotify and amassed nearly 80,000 views on YouTube. Mali is set to follow up on this release with a multi-city nationwide tour. She is also a candidate at the Europe Music Awards, now postponed, under the [Best India Act](https://www.mtvema.com/vote/best-india-act/) nominees. **Find Mali on: [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/maalavikamanoj/?hl=en) | [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/artist/4JSAaGJ5mNSfG0MBxDFQZN?autoplay=true) | [Apple Music](https://music.apple.com/in/artist/mali-manoj/1249405259)** **Track Credits:** *Written and composed by Mali Drums: JJ Guitars and Bass: Keshav Dhar Acoustic Guitar and Synths: Mali Backing Vocals: Aria Nanji Produced and Mix by Keshav Dhar Mastered by Forrester Savell Recorded at Island City Studios Recording Engineer: Hersh and Aria* **Check out more new releases from Indian artists –** [Spotify Embed: TFword Selects: Fresh Indian Releases](https://open.spotify.com/embed/playlist/4SmF4ohkGecVUj9rDLBz6D?utm_source=oembed) **You May Also Like:** [TFword in Conversation With Tech Panda & Kenzani](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2023/10/12/tfword-in-conversation-with-tech-panda-kenzani) [Akanksha Bhandari, Zachary Ray & FRNTFLW Arrive ‘Together’](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2023/10/06/akanksha-bhandari-zachary-ray-frntflw-arrive-together) [Artists Performing in India for the First Time in 2023-24](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2023/10/27/artists-performing-in-india-for-the-first-time-in-2023-24) Share [X](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fword%2F2023%2F11%2F01%2Fmali-fires-out-new-pop-rock-single-semi-automatic-butane.md&text=Mali+Fires+Out+New+Pop-Rock+Single%2C+%E2%80%98Semi+Automatic+Butane%E2%80%99) [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fword%2F2023%2F11%2F01%2Fmali-fires-out-new-pop-rock-single-semi-automatic-butane.md) [WhatsApp](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=Mali+Fires+Out+New+Pop-Rock+Single%2C+%E2%80%98Semi+Automatic+Butane%E2%80%99+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fword%2F2023%2F11%2F01%2Fmali-fires-out-new-pop-rock-single-semi-automatic-butane.md) ## Denver C Tracking stories in music with a focus on festivals, events, gigs, and sustainability.
