'Ansoo'
Ali Azmat
Featured as the main soundtrack of television play, Ansoo, this song
(also called 'Ansoo') is a departure from the classic rock sound that
is synonymous with Ali Azmat. Composed by Waqar Ali, (the brother
of Sajjad Ali) it is musically slightly filmy with keyboards used
to full effect with a morbid sound but is grabbing nonetheless. With
a pessimistic and mournful wordplay that goes, "Chaltay chaltay
sochain/Kyun hai duuri/Jaingaye kahan/Khwahish tou na hogi poori/Jaingaye
kahan/Sun loo...sun sako tou/Tumko ansoo pukaraye," and a simple
melody, it is one of the best drama soundtracks ever done. This song
is also a testament to the talent of Ali Azmat and shows that while
rock will always remain his edgy musical side, his is a voice that
can excel in almost any genre.

'Raat Jagi'
Ganda Banda and 3D Cats
Off their one and to-date only album, 2.5 km Live from the Tower,
'Raat Jagi' is just a very grungy number. Ali Alam shines like a diamond
on this number with his vocals bordering on slight aggression and
sudden romance. He keeps changing notes, drifting between high and
low and complimenting this upbeat melody throughout. Unlike their
other famous songs like 'Dhoonda Taroon Mein' and 'Tu Na Ho Meray
Pass', 'Raat Jagi' is simply a ball of energy with some exceptional
drumming from Ahmed Chagla. And with a romantic yet 'Tere bin yeh
dunya jhooti/Yeh wadey jhootey yeh kasamey jhooti/Aas liye betha hoon/Mein
teri yaad mein roya hoon/Yeh sapna soch ho ya adhoora ho..."
it is superlative. So, download it now.

'Precious'
Depeche Mode
From their 11th studio album, Playing the Angel, 'Precious' is one
of Depeche Mode's most memorable, chart-topping numbers to date. It
is electronic music at its finest. A very moody track, it has an airy
feeling to it. A gentle fragility is palpable in its layered sound
and it makes for a fine song. And with vocalist Dave Grahan's powerful
yet somber vocals and lyrics that go, "Things get damaged/Things
get broken/I thought we'd manage/But words left unspoken/Left us so
brittle/There was so little left to give…" it just screams
to be played louder and louder every time.
Considered to be one of the pioneers of synth-pop/electronic music
with over 91 million record sold worldwide, Depeche Mode is one of
those rare bands that has consistently delivered one fantastic album
after the other. And just for that, everyone must check this song
out! |
