Songs of the Week - Kill Bill Vol-1 Soundtrack !  

Posted by KC


Im one great fan of Quentin Tarantino and one of the many things that i love about his movies is their music or soundtracks !! This man has great taste for music and is a pioneer in the usage of songs at appropriate places in the movie !! As far as am concerned , the best soundtrack for a Quentin tarantino movie is his "Kill Bill Volume -1" , which i also consider as one of the greatest soundtracks of all time !! There are some 22 songs in the soundtrack - and here i give 3 of my most favt !! :)

1. Twisted Nerve - Bernard Hermann :
This is one of the creepiest sounds i have heard for a scene !! Lol , Although its just a whistle blowing sound - just check the effect it gives you while watching with the video !! :) PS - Its also my current Ring tone :)



2.Georghe Zamfir - Lonely Sheperd :
Again its just an Instrumental - a typical (Wild) Western one with some kinda Japanese tinge to it - and played by a Romanian !! :) Absolute piece of genius !! Seems the instrument used is called a Pan-flute !!



3. Nancy Sinatra - Bang Bang :
A song from the 60's so well suits a movie made in 2k !! Nancy is Frank Sinatra's daughter . I usually don watch the credits of any movie but this song made me to sit through the Entire credits of this movie !!! :)

Songs of the week - ATB's Trilogy !  

Posted by KC

After exploring smooth jazz last week , its time to change genres !! This week i shall go into yet another favourite genre of mine - "Lounge" or "Ambience" !! Well in musical family its pretty close to Soft music genres like "Trance" and "Progressive House" - but unlike the dance beats in these genres - there's no such beats in Ambience ! Its again one of those types of music which is very "healthy" for your mind !! It eases stress and can even be a cure to Insomnia !! :)

So this week , i bring you three songs by ATB - may most favt DJ much known for his Dance Trance !! The three are collectively called the "Trilogy" . My most favt song amongst the three is Trilogy Part 2 , where ATB takes Ambience to a completely different level ! Trilogy Part 1 and Trilogy Part 3 are pretty similar and are more "Lounge" kinda music and less of Ambience !! Hope you enjoy these songs this week !! :)

Songs of the Week - "ChillOut" your "Soul" with some "Smooth-Jazz" :)  

Posted by KC

First of all , Thanks to my dear friend Demiera for Re-introducing me to this Greatest genre of music !! "Chill-out" - "Soul" - "Smooth Jazz" - watever you wanna call it - is one heck of a genre in music provided to the world by the 80's !! Although its music for all times - the best time can be when you study or doing assignments :) , before sleep (esp if you have problem with sleeping) and all times when you are before your PC !! :) I got addicted listening to it in the WinAmp Internet Radio during the nights while preparing for my GRE an year ago , but got out of touch with it for sometime , untill Demiera put up a great post giving her favt Smooth jazz songs ! After a week without music on my site - i give you the songs that will be playing on my site for some more time to come !

1. "Summer Madness" by Kool and the Gang - The song was Reco-ed by Demiera and i fell in love with it the first-ever time i heard it ! Sometimes i hear the song continuosly for even half an hour !! :)

2 & 3 . "The Moment" and "Forever in Love" by Kenny G - I was a great fan of Kenny G since my first year of college ! This guy kills the Sax - which is an instrument that i love hearing ! These are his best two works !!

4. "Mystic Voyage" by Ronnie Jordan & Roy Ayers - Well Roy Ayers is the guy who gave the famous "Everybody loves the Sunshine" , But more than that song , i love this one "Mystic Voyage" done by him and Ronnie Jordan !

5."Flight Time" by Donald Byrd - First listened to it an year ago on WinAmp Radio , Luckily was able to figure it out now - only because of the Flight takeoff sound that comes in the beginning ! :p

Songs of the week - AR Rahman's "Bombay Dreams"  

Posted by KC

"Bombay Dreams" was Andrew Lloyd Webber's Musical with music scored by our very own AR Rahman that ran successfully first in London and then in Broadway from 2002 to 2005 .. Although am a Rahmaniac - these songs hold special place in my heart as it portrayed Rahman on a global scale !! Here are some 7 of the best songs from the entire album !! I hope some day this musical is staged here in India !! I ll be the first one to get the tickets !! :)


This one's the promo of "Bombay dreams" with the english version of the song - shakalaka Baby, which once created stirs all over india !!



These are certain clippings and footage from the play itself , including the Chaiyya-Chaiyya !! :)

Songs of the Week - Atif Aslam's Best !  

Posted by KC

Well to those of you who dont know Atif Aslam , i think he is the ONLY Pakistani loved by so many indians !! His voice is sooo different and attractive and at times , mind boggling !! Am a great fan of him and his magnificent voice !! This week , i ll be playing here three of his best songs ever !!

1. "Woh Lamhe" from the movie Zeher

This awesome song was the one that pushed him into fame here in India(before that he was a famous pop singer in Pakistan) !!





2. "Tere Bin" from the movie Bas Ek Pal

This is my personal favourite of Atif , although many may not agree with me !! :) I don know why ! It has something extra to it thats missing in his other chart-busters !!




3. "Pehli Nazar Mein" from Race

Well , this is is latest hit here in India ! almost everyone were hooked on to this !! But then , seems this is a complete Rip-off from some Korean song !! he he.. But we cant blame it on atif !! Blame it on the music director who ripped it off ! :)

Posted by KC

Yipeeeee.. Its the weekend again !! And yep , time again to sort out my jukebox !! Well, this week , i upgraded my DTH Satellite package to incorporate all the Music channels ! And finally am gettin M TV , Channel V and VH 1 - Once my favourite channels !! And these are the two songs that am really hooked up to !!!

1. Leavin by Jesse McCartney




This one is from Jesse's latest album "Departure" .. Its topping the charts everywhere ! For a 20 year old , Jesse is tooo good !! And the music is also pretty kool and makes ppl hooked on to it ! The only thing thats disturbing is the video ! Well , its sure that most of the fan crowd for this song are the children and the early teens !! Although he may be now a 20 yr old , he should have reduced the amount of "Sleeze" in the video ! Anyway its Koool with me :) he he..


2.Bubbly by Colbie Caillat



This song has been around for a while.. But just this week i heard it on VH 1.. And immediately hooked on to it.. On youtube , i was surprised to see comments that the song is about her "Orgasm" .. LOL.. Now lets not get into that !! Anyway , its soothes my mind whenever i hear it and literally makes you fall in love ! And although she may be some wat "big" , shes still a hot chick ! :) So i like the video tooo !! he he :)

And Finally , i loveeeeeeee the Lyrics !! They are just soooo cute ! SO here it is for u !


V1: I've been awake for a while now

V2: The rain is fallin on my window pane
but we are hidin in a safer place
under the covers stayin dry and warm

V3: I've been asleep for a while now
You tucked me in just like a child now
Cause every time you hold me in your arms
Im comfortable enough to feel your warmth

And I lose all control
When you kiss my nose
The feelin shows
Cause you make me smile
Baby just take your time
Holdin me tight
