Euphoria was formed in 1988 by a then medical student Dr.Palash Sen and his friends. Bass player extraordinaire, Debajyoti Bhaduri, joined hands with Palash in the early nineties and adopted Euphoria as his own dream. The duo has been played together ever since, and form the heart of Euphoria. Moving through several line ups, the band kept searching for their elusive break. It came 10 years after their inception as Euphoria released their first studio album titled ‘Dhoom’ in the October of 1998 to critical acclaim and commercial success.They became the pioneers of ‘Hind Rock’ or rock music in Hindi. Their first single was titled ‘Dhoom Pichuk Dhoom’ – and it became the most popular video to hit TV screens in that decade. Directed by ad-guru and film maker Pradeep Sarkar, the video became a benchmark for non-Bollywood music videos. Two other videos were shot and released for the songs “Tum” and “ Sha Na Na” the same year.
