Dum Maaro Dum - Music Review

Abhishek and Earl’s Thayn Thayn somehow sounds so much like a piece from Bluffmaster even with a different composer here. I guess this will sound good and look great once it comes out. Watch out for it.

Te Amo, the song sung by Ash King, is definitely a lovely one and Pritam does his own good thing with Ash’s voice, as long as you don’t compare this one to Dil gira daffatan. While Ash is lovely in the soft romantic song and natural with the English parts of the song, Sunidhi is not bad either. One song you would love.

Like in all Pritam albums, there is another version of Te Amo, a reprise by Pritam. I guess I need not tell you how a soft version of a soft romantic song would sound when Mohit sings it. The slight acoustic setting Pritam has given to the song is nice.

Mit Jaaye Gham. Dum Maaro Dum. Shirt. Potty. Nanga. Well, It’s like that only. All I can say is that after this song is on air, the censor board won’t have to do much to decide the audience. Families are NOT going to watch this one. Oh, as for the music, it’s okay. As expected, it’s made in kinda addictive mood. But lyrics, oh, well..

If there is something in the album that I was able to hear in a loop from the first time itself, here it is. Jiyein Kyun is not only good on music and singing, the lyrics are so lovely, I just fell for the song very soon.

As for the music, Pritam is almost in Metro mood here and Papon sounds so much like James in his singing. And Mr Sahni Jaideep, I love you. DO Listen to this one.

And then Zubeen Garg’s Jaana hai is a signature Pritam song in Zubeen’s very typical voice. Nothing too great, but there is definitely a special kind of depth in Zubeen’s voice that Always attracts you, which especially suits songs with a, what would I say, kashish, with a longing to go ahead and achieve something. And here is one such song. Liked it.

Overall, Dum Maaro Dum may be an album to hide from your parents (yes, at any age) after listening to that title song, but there are a few good songs in the album and while you love everything from Jiyein Kyun to Te Amo, Jaana hai and Thayn Thayn aren’t disappointing. In short, cool. In fact a bit too much in a some places, you know.

Anees Bazmee definitely does things in an upside down way. That’s how there is Thank You after Welcome. This one again comes from the Pritam’s Factory of Dance-n-forget Music. Here comes a review.

The album starts with Mika’s Pyaar do Pyaar lo, that you might have caught on TV. The oldie-newie song sounds more like a remix and looks very much like a try to redo apni to jaise taise from Housefull. I guess Pritam has been successful, but not so much as SEL were with theirs.

The next song, Razia, is sung by Saleem and Ritu Pathak, but Saleem can be confused for a girl with his high pitch here. Allah bachaye meri jaan ki razia gundon mein phans gayi sounds like a typical item song and Ritu sounds pretty good with her singing. Nothing new, just another good product from the Factory.

Pyaar tera pyaar mujhe = Main yahan bhi, main wahan bhi (Toh Baat Pakki). Next beat seems to be taken from Action replay. Even though I liked Neeraj Shridhar and Richa Sharma’s Full volume with it’s never-too-high notes, Pritam looks like he’s out of composition styles and trying to feed old things, though I don’t actually think it’s the case.

When I heard Sonu Nigam’s My Heart is beating, I was wondering why Thank You seems so inspired by Housefull. This one is sung by Sonu very much in Mohammad Rafi’s style, precisely like the ones the legend sang for Shammi Kapoor. With good promotion, song should do well. Liked Sonu’s singing in this one, and not bad work by Pritam as well.

Pyaar Mein is the last original song of the album, which is sung by Neeraj Shridhar and Javed Ali. Again, Pritam looks like captured in his own styles even while he gives a good song. While Javed Ali makes the song his own by singing it beautifully, Neeraj’s ‘chorus’ sounds lovely. But what fascinated me the most in the song was the backing vocals that appeared from the very start of the song. Unfortunately, I don’t know whose voice that is, though I presume it’s either Suzanne or Bianca Gomes as their names are mentioned for backing vocals in the album. Also, this is probably one song of the album which is good not only in music but also with words. Amitabh Bhattacharya is the guy holding the pen here. And another similarity with Housefull. OK. Excuse me for that.

And while I was looking for the backing vocals, one more thing I came to know was that Sachin and Jigar were among the programmers of the album. Nice to know that.

I didn’t try listening to the remixes especially they were all merely ‘remix’es and mentioned nothing more specific than that.
So overall, Thank you is an okay, run of the mill thing in which most of the songs are danceable while one particular song called Pyaar mein is something close to Tum mile’s level, but a bit lower than that, also because it’s so much similar. Quite what was expected from Pritam, or actually slightly better if you think of No Problem.

Game - Music Review

Read more! Cast :: Abhishek Bachchan, Kangna Ranaut, Sarah, Jimmy Sheirgill

Shankar Ehsaan Loy are on a roll in 2011. First Patiala House, which came with some pretty decent tracks, then the official world cup song and now they have come with Game which is their latest offering. Apart from Shankar Ehsaan Loy, what makes Game, an album to look out for is that the movie is produced by Farhaan Akhtar and lyrics penned by his father Javed Akhtar. Already, S-E-L and Farhaan team have given us musical chartbusters like Dil Chahta Hai, Don and Rock On, so expectations from Game multiplies.

Game is an edge of seat who-dunnit thriller and if such movies are supported by good music, they turn out to be blockbuster hits like Race, Humraaz, Gupt and so on have proved in the past.

The album comprises of 4 original tracks, 3 remixes and 1 reprise. The first track is the title song It's A Game, which may appear in the starting credits or as a background theme piece, which may be running throughout the movie. Vishal Dadlani tries his best, but the song itself is ordinary. This may be the ideal song to open the movie, but ain't ideal enough to open the album.

Maine Kab Yeh Socha Tha, sung by Shaan, Anusha Mani and Loy, which comes in next, is a romantic number with a soulful melody. The number grows slowly on you, on repeated listening's you can't just help but fall in love with this track. It may not turn out to be a runaway hit but it is surely worth listening again and again, enjoy it while it lasts.

The next track is Mehki Mehki, which also features in the theatrical trailer is another melodious number sung by Shreya Ghoshal and Kshitij. The lyrics of this song are the best of the lot, and the singers especially Shreya has done a tremendous job with the vocals, Kshitij is also impressive. The song strikes the right chord instantly and is surely going to be loved by many. Definitely the best track of the album as it does not take much time in getting you addicted to it.

The final original track Kaun Hai Ajnabi falls in the category what Bardaasht Nahi Kar Sakta was for Humraaz or Duniya Haseeno Ka Mela was for Gupt or Khwaab Dekhe was for Race, it is a song which comes with a Super Hit tag. Once again its KK who weaves the magic ably supported by Aditi Singh Sharma. If picturized and promoted well this song can turn out to become pretty huge.

The remixes which are in next, again like any other bollywood album, make the original tracks look masterpiece. At best the remixes just pump up the tempo of the songs while the reprise of the title song is just about average.

Giving good music for a thriller is not everyone's cup of tea, but Shankar Ehsaan Loy do a splendid job this time with Game. Not to forget Dil Chahta Hai was a rom-com and Rock On was a musical, hence the music had great scope but thrillers do not allow that much of freedom, considering this although Game is not as great as a DCH or a Rock On but still full marks to S-E-L to come up with tracks such as Mehki Mehki, Kaun Hai Ajnabi and Maine Kab Yeh Socha Tha. Now with digital sales being the primary income source since people rarely buy CD's these 3 songs will be most favourite for many listeners.

The music of Game surely thrills you. Go get it as soon as possible!
