MAUSAM MUSIC REVIEW

The point of having two versions of Rabba Main Toh Mar Gaya Oye is totally beyond me. The arrangement is the same, both singers (Shahid Mallya, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan) pretty much follow the same style so no new dimension is added in version 2 (I am talking of the musical perspective only, not lyrics). Pritamcould as well have settled for the Mallya version which in case is the one being aired. That said, lovely Punjabi-based track, a melody that for a change is not instantly connectable to any previous Pritam work. Suddenly this Shahid Mallya is all over the place, and I am quite warming up to his singing. Sajh Dhaj Ke is fairly engaging despite its commonplace framework, thanks to Mika Singh’s singing (wonder what part Pankaj Kapoor has contributed, he is also credited). But that is still no reason for the song to have three versions! I did in fact like the Desi Mix better than the original as is it is less noisy, but Club Mix is plain unnecessary. The song that follows, Ik Tu Hi Tu Hi, also comes in three editions, but there is nothing remix-y about any of the tracks thankfully.Hans Raj Hans, Shahid Mallya and the Wadali Brothers respectively deliver the three versions of the soothing

ROCKSTAR TRACKLIST

The music for the film will be scored by A. R. Rahman replacing the usual associate of Imtiaz Ali, Pritam Chakraborty. The lyrics will be penned byIrshad Kamil. The audio rights has been bought by T-Series. According to Rahman, "Rockstar is a character driven film and as one can guess from the title, there will be lots of guitar." In brief, the music will have very different vibrations. Neeraj Shridhar and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will associate with Rahman for the first time through this film. Italian-Canadian singer Natalie Di Luccio has recorded two songs for the film. A. R. Rahman has now completed background score for the film and the audio is expected to release in September. The climax song of the film will have Ranbir Kapoor performing in front of a live audience.

ROCK THE TABLA: HOSSAM RAMZY’S FUSION ALBUM FEAT. A R RAHMAN, BILLY COBHAM

It is being touted as percussionist Hossam Ramzy’s realization of a 10-year old dream. And the man seems determined to make it worth the long duration, collaborating with some of the biggest names for Rock The Tabla –Billy Cobham, a man he considers his idol; A R Rahman, with whom he had worked in Meenaxi,Manu Katche and Omar Faruk Takbilek to name a few. Looking at the track list and the preview, the album seems to be set on a Middle Eastern theme. Quite fitting too, considering that the artist has spent a lifetime fusing Arabic music with various other genres. The album is set to release on the 30th of this month, it can be viewed on iTuneshere. Hoping that the songs are made available in Indian outlets as well. Below is a preview of the album.
