Career

During his time at college, he would often have jam sessions with his friend Siddharth Haldipur (of music director duo Sangeet-Siddharth fame). It was on one such session that Amar Haldipur (Siddharth\’s father), who is a famous arranger and violinist, noticed Clinton and took a liking to his voice.

Amar introduced Clinton to Anand Modak, the music director of the Marathi film Mukta, and soon he was performing his first song in a recording studio. It was a Marathi film\’s English song, picturized on an African-American.

After a series of sporadic recordings, he started lending his voice to many advertisement jingles. During this period, he worked with Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, Lezz Lewis, Ranjit Barot, and Louis Banks. Some of his contemporaries at that time were KK and Kunal Ganjawala, who went on to become playback singers. Clinton and Kunal sang a lot of jingles together.

Realizing that his voice was not versatile enough to be a successful jingle singer, he started looking at other areas of interest.

A. R. Rahman, while working in an adjoining studio, happened to overhear one of Clinton\’s vocal arrangements for a song, and when they met a month later, he offered Clinton the opportunity to work with him. Soon, his work was noticed by many, and other projects followed.

Eventually, Clinton went on to work with many leading Indian music composers, performing various roles in the music department. Later on, he composed various songs that were featured in Coke Studio. One of the famous songs is \”Madari,\” sung by Vishal Dadlani and Sonu Kakkar.
