There is only ONE TUNE by him on the RP Playlist.  PLEASE ADD MORE!  Thank You.

Most Bollywood soundtracks seem to sound like they have been recorded on a 1960s Ferguson tape recorder using its crystal microphone. I know they can do better. It must be a cultural expectation. I quite like this though.

It looks like there haven't been any comments about this for a couple of years. I assume it doesn't get much airplay, perhaps because of the trolling comments.  Whether you like the music or not, keep in mind that you can always skip forward or switch to another RP channel.

How? How can you dislike this so much? I come here for variety, not just more of the same damn thing I have in my personal music library. This breaks things up so very nicely.

So this would be like Bollyville, as in the Indian Nashville. OK, I'm tired, I'm going home now. Promise.

I lived in Mauritius for several years--large Indian population. I used to love the Bollywood movies. They break into song and dance at the slightest provocation.

This is a nice way to break up the afternoon:) It's a little long, but quite nice overall.

Oh yes, I like this very much... yummy vocals, nice bridge, urging rhythm, moveable feast.

Very cool groove. Reminds me of the soundtrack to Monsoon Wedding. A nice change on a dull workday.

Pretty surprising, considering the source. I'm nuts over anything "Indian"....
Posted 20 years ago by Pyro    [ Reply ]

ditto your assessment. i've heard some, but not much of his own original stuff, and i liked it a lot. i'm actually doing the chair bounce listening to this now. indian techno trance drum and bass, call it what you want, it is still damned listenable.

major flashback to bumpy Tata bus on the road to Rishikesh... or was it a taxi on the LIE?
Lucky duck! If I think back to indian bus trips I remember ear-thrashing extreme-soprano indian pop music, not anything like this. This is GOOD!

NOT ONE OF THE BEST SONGS ON THE CD. BUT AN ENJOYABLE CD OVERALL. IF SADDAM HAD THIS CD PLAYING OUR TROOPS WOULD NOT HAVE HAD SUCH A TIME FINDING HIM.

Talvin Singh has a lot of better music, but this isn't too bad. I'm kinda diggin' Indian music.

It's refreshing to hear world music. Besides, these are the latest European (not yet American) club grooves.

A culturally expansive \"5\".
Posted 21 years ago by BC_Night_Heron    [ Reply ]
I second (or third, or fourth) calls for more of Singh\'s own work, esp. from \"OK\" which is amazing. Anything from Tabla Beat Science would be great, too--either the studio album or the Live in San Francisco one; I\'ll bring the latter tomorrow and upload some if I don\'t find on playlist. :D

Decent, BUT not nearly as good as Talvin Singh's own work. let's hear some of his original stuff.
