Days of Bhangra Producers Lives: Where PMC Misses the Hardest Working Man in Show Biz
Seems like most Bhangra Producers are on twitter these days. With tweets ranging from album updates, what they’re doing to pass time, or how good they are at cooking, twitter is a little telescope into their day to day life. However every now and then, they may also paint an even more interesting picture of what is running through their mind. This feature helps you chew on what is happening in Bhangra Producers lives.
Tried to send out some emails, nearly signed the first one off with ‘Kind Retards’ :0 #Blunder Yep its Tuesday!

Anyone who jumps in an elevator to avoid one small flight of stairs deserves to be slapped at the back of their head with a fish! #lazy

Old School Sunday: Ballay Jagpal “Bewafa”
Long before Imran Khan was crooning about it, Ranjit Mani and Bally Jagpal had their own OG UK Bhangra version of the track “Bewafa.”
Dating back to 1997, this track was featured on “Live & Direct” (as well as “Dark & Direct”).
The album featured a few other great songs like “Nakhre Bin Soni Temi”, and “Putt Sardara De”. But for me, any song that uses that James Brown guitar riff is a winner.

Kulvinder Johal – “Johal Boliyan” Video
Now this is the business!
There isn’t much I can say to convince you to buy this song, other than to point you in the direction of the video.
Get the Flash Player to see this content.
Kulvinder Johal, who has been around since the early 80′s, is set for a monster solo album with the aide of Tru-Skool on production.
Granted it’s a remake of a Mohammed Sadiq and Ranjit Kaur track, I think this updated track is fresh for the times. Tru-Skool shows off his flair (and his best PMC impression to date) with the use of some solid sampling of James Brown.
The song debuted at number 1 on the Official Asian Download Chart. (That’s now 2 Bhangra tracks at number 1 in consecutive weeks (PBN last week))
This song is on continuous repeat for me.
Do yourself a favour and get the song from iTunes
