Revolution Evolution: Now you're talking
http://e-volver.blogspot.com/2008/12/now-you-talking.html
Sunday, December 21, 2008. Rahman does fusion, just right. This takes Lebanese Blonde (Thievery Corporation) to the next level. Love the way this song starts off all pretty with pianos and guitar (assumedly, that's Mausam), and that kicks into the sitar, drum 'n' bass groove. A constituent of the radical new OST that is Slumdog Millionaire. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). More about the author. Baldly go where no man has gone before. Dont believe in mincing those words, do you, SRK?

Revolution Evolution: This dude...
http://e-volver.blogspot.com/2012/05/this-dude.html
Friday, May 04, 2012. You may remember him from such crazy songs as Jaa Chudail (Delhi Belly). His simplicity, accent and comedic timing is noteworthy. Plus his material is edgy and quite contemporary. He's got that kind of voice and delivery that makes you want to listen and stay engaged, which is great. He is one of two people that I think deserve a solid break this year in Bollywood. The other is Prateik (Dhobi Ghat, Ek Deewana Tha). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). More about the author.

Revolution Evolution: How NOT to sample Indian music! Barfworthy stuff!
http://e-volver.blogspot.com/2012/05/how-not-to-sample-indian-music.html
Saturday, May 12, 2012. How NOT to sample Indian music! So for those listening to the track, after you're done gawking in disbelief, this is BKAB by Ethan Stoller. The ending credits track for V for Vendetta. Infuriating how distastefully this song is designed. Badly timed, no sense of melodic blending, rhythm completely out of whack. This track is almost as bad as V for Vendetta itself. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). More about the author. How NOT to sample Indian music! Hold on to your handlebars.

Revolution Evolution: Chak Lein De
http://e-volver.blogspot.com/2008/12/chak-lein-de.html
Thursday, December 11, 2008. Awesome Kailash Kher track from the OST of CC2C (sorry, being very Delhi-ite with my abbreviations, today). The best part is the flute interlude after the second verse, and the really best part comes after the last verse when the song goes into an acoustic guitar mode, and then crescendoes back with flutes and drums back into the hook. Nice job, K.Kher! This is a pretty decent OST. What think? Decently compelling. Full review is up here. Great minds think alike, jee :-).

Revolution Evolution: Don't believe in mincing those words, do you, SRK?
http://e-volver.blogspot.com/2008/12/don-believe-in-mincing-those-words-do.html
Sunday, December 21, 2008. Dont believe in mincing those words, do you, SRK? Question: Aamir kick-started the final promotions for his film Ghajini with the release of your film. Your comment? SRK: I think it is a very good strategy. He thinks he can ride off the brand that is Shah Rukh Khan, which is the biggest brand. The problem is, I cannot ride on any other brand as there is no brand bigger than me! Yeah I heard about this today. Douche. If my brand management professor ever met SRK, he'd shoot him.

Revolution Evolution: Behka Main Behka
http://e-volver.blogspot.com/2008/12/behka-main-behka.html
Sunday, December 14, 2008. When I first heard this song, I figured that the video would have to be extremely hatke to match up to the work Rahman has done with it. Its amazing to see the creativity and spirit that Bollywood exudes during the process of film-making. The industry has certainly come a long way. While Aamir does look a tad bit haggard, must laud his tenacity and ability to reinvent himself so brilliantly. Note to Ahmed Khan - R&B is Rhythm and Blues, not Rhythm and Bass.

Revolution Evolution: Selective Hearing
http://e-volver.blogspot.com/2012/05/selective-hearing.html
Saturday, May 19, 2012. A Music Review by Vishal Oberoi. TMK brings together the music of Sajid-Wajid with the direction of Kunal Kohli, a director with a keen ear for music exemplified by his prior films' soundtracks (Hum Tum, Fanaa and even Break Ke Baad which had an awesome score albeit average in its box office collections). Teri Meri Kahaani is no outlier from such expectations, but one has to practice what I like to call selective hearing. Perhaps I can help. Hmmm Yes. Ok back to the score. Althoug...

Revolution Evolution: When Indi-Pop began...
http://e-volver.blogspot.com/2008/12/when-indi-pop-began.html
Sunday, December 21, 2008. Naw man, this was definitely a couple of years after IndiPop began. I categorize the birth of it with Made in India and Milind Soman draped in tiger fur, mmmm. I live in denial. I believe that Alisha "Lovergirl" Chinai never happened. So sue me. Is one of her prettier tracks. Suna hai? Of course I've heard it :). Milind Soman. gaaaah. I agree with Xinu. I think it was the whole de-de-de mujhko thing. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). More about the author.

Wednesday, May 02, 2012. Current Tuneage: Dhol Yaara Dhol (OST - Dev D). Bringing back a classic. This one really made me sit up and listen to Shilpa Raos voice. It has an almost childlike innocence, but such depth. Also loved her verse in Agnees I Believe (The Dewarists). Sent from my BlackBerry smartphone from SmarTone-Vodafone.
