Porojonome

Porojonome is a track from the collaborative album Real Sugar by Bengali folk artist Paban Das Baul and British producer and guitarist Sam Mills. The song appears as the third track on the album with a duration of 7 minutes and 36 seconds.

The album Real Sugar was released on February 25, 1997, under the label Caroline Records in CD format. The project blends Baul traditions—a syncretic folk style originating from Bengal—with contemporary production techniques. Mills contributed guitar arrangements and co-production, while Das Baul provided vocals, ektara (a single-stringed instrument), and khamak (a percussion instrument).

The track Porojonome exemplifies the fusion of Baul philosophy with global musical elements. Lyrics draw from the Baul repertoire, emphasizing themes of divine love and introspection. The composition features layered instrumentation, including acoustic guitar, ektara, and subtle electronic textures. Specific recording locations and additional session musicians remain undocumented in available sources.

Real Sugar received attention for its cross-cultural approach, though commercial performance data and chart positions are not widely published. The album marked one of the earliest international collaborations for Das Baul, who later gained recognition for preserving and adapting Baul music in global contexts. No official music video or alternate versions of Porojonome have been confirmed.
