DASTAAN BY GURUS TRILOGY

Gurus Trilogy, a new upcoming band with such a mature music. Man if u've ever listened to Vital Signs back in 90's, they sounded really mature back then but it really took some time for such perfection but these Gurus have achieved such a high standard of music so quickly. Dastaan being their first song aired on Television has really done what it was supposed to do, touching people heart so that Gurus can take a stand in the main streame. The song right on the start having a flute and ending up on the flute, man it sounds really kool. The Piano, the guitar, the drums, the flute; I dont have enough words to praise the perfection shown in playing each & everyone of these instruments.

The lyrics of the song are really good. The romantic environment provided by the song is just amazing. The vocalist (sorry I dont know the name) but has a really sweet voice, having proper music study really makes a singer being on top of the rest. He has advantage that he has learnt Classical Music which is considered to be the basic in Indo-Pak music history. The Sur & Taal of the song is perfect. I hope these new comers are really going to have a major impact on the Paki Music Scene. They're going to be a trend setter (Inshallah).

Dastaan as the name says it all has a story of two lovers. A really really sweet song. I wont say I've just tasted the Dominos Pizza and that kinda real kool and so is the song. It tastes so good. I heard the song on a Live performance shown on TV. But really these guyz really kool in their music. I really want to Buy their Debut Album which is already released in market. Their may be good singers out there in the main streame but even though the Gurus are a upcoming band but they've already set a standard of class. Covering I believe almost all generations of current era. The youngsters, the 30's and the oldies who alwayz classic music. Gurus have covered em' all. You can either download or streame the song from

SILSILAY THE OST OF TELEFILM "THE EARLY DAYS"

Sisilay, the sound track of a telefilm that was shown on GEO a few months back. A telefilm on a typical student life. A student who went to Karachi from Lahore and completes his Graduation in Bussiness Administration from City University. A life style of atleast 85% University Students is shown in the tele film. The Telefilm is about of 1 Hr in duration but is of new style and theme.

I have never seen even a single telefilm before so to me that was one hell of an experience. The ups and downs, the background music, the editing, the direction; I like it all the way from top to bottom. The telefilm shows how a student went to University with his dream world and when that dreamland was shattered, his whole life was just like stopped and then he came back to life and blah blah blah.

Anywayz the reason im writing this blog is the soundtrack of this telefilm. A perfectly composed and sung song by Somair and Tahir. I heard the song while i was watching a scene of the telefilm, it touched my music senses just about then. I searched for the song after then and downloaded it and since then I believe there is not even a single day when i haven't heard the song.

It was like "ab to aadat si hai mujh ko".

The guitar work in the music composition is really awsome and the beat given to the music with the drum. It is like choclate toping on donuts. The lyrics of the song, "ankhoun mein sapne hein dil mein hain armaan, chahia ye zameen mujhe choona aasmaan" ofcourse really motivating and the "aaaa aaaaaa aaaaaaaaa" is really kinda kool. I like it. The video of the song comprises of clips taken from the telefilm. Actually I really dont have enough words to praise the song properly. My dictionary has already ran out of words to praise Somair n' Tahir. Even though i agree that im a big fan of Pakistani Underground Scene, even more than the main streme but u've to admit that Somair & Tahir have really done a marvolous job. You can either download or streame the song from

Cover song "Yaarian" by Abbas and W.A.L.E.E.D

Guyz I've just heard a cover song by Abbas Ali khan feat. W.A.L.E.E.D, the song name is "Yaarian". Almost all the paki music fanz know "Vital Signs" really well. A band of late 80's to the 90's that really changed the music scene along with Nazia and Zohaib. They were the pioneers of their era. Lots of ppl from their time and even after them paid tribute to those pioneers in different wayz. One way of adoring them was to sing cover songs. A lots of singers and artists have tried the cover songs.. Many succeeded bcoz of the original fame of the song sung by Vital Sings, many got hit because the songs were really good even when they were covered.

"Abbas Ali Khan" a singer with high pitch but sweet sound when came up into the pakistani music scene with his first song he was a hit right from the start. The nice melodic voice and the sweetness coming out of his throat got him a place in paki music fanz. But his breakthrough success was when he realeased "Sun re", then "Teri Yaad feat. W.A.L.E.E.D". That was the moment when people started realizing that this guy is really going to be someone like "Vital Signs or Nizia, Zohaib".

Now after an almost 3 month gap he came up with a cover song named "Yaarian". The song was originally sung by "Vital Sings" and was a hit even back then in their era. But even with the cover song "Abbas and W.A.L.E.E.D" togetherly have done a really gr8 job. Being a rapper W.A.L.E.E.D has really put the beat of the modern era and Abbas with his melodic voice really touched the hearts deeply. Even though W.A.L.E.E.D's rap is sometime difficult to understand because the vocals are not clear but he really raps like ma mature person and with a mature rapper kind of voice and accent. To me the song is worthy of given a try.

To dnld the song chk out www.pmx.pakstop.com and then pass ur comments. I hope any person who can understand both English and Urdu is going to like the song in no time.
