DJ Tally “Nakrah” Video

DJ Tally hooks up with Nirmal Sidhu on his first ever video for his single “Nakrah.”

Standard Notorious Jatt type of music hunna? Albeit, I like it a bit better than the Danny C track.

The single can be purchased exclusively on iTunes on February 26th, 2010.

DJ Gurps “Mundeyo” Video

The third video from DJ Gurps’ “Expectations” album.

There was only one track on this album that caught my attention, and that was the Sarbjit Kaur Boliyan.

This video, featuring the vocals of Nirmal Sidhu, does provide some entertainment. You’ll see what I mean.

Old School Sunday – Unity “Asi Haan Punjabi” (Behind the Scenes)

This week’s Old School Sunday video is from two weeks ago. Yep, two weeks ago.

Every year, the BBC in the UK, host a charity event “Children in Need.” They do the whole Telethon bit, and this year, it’ll have an old school UK Bhangra flavour.

“Unity,” a whole bunch of old school artists, have got together and produced a song for the benefit, and as you can see below, a video is in the works.

Going by the number of artists associated with the song, I figured today would be as good as time as any for this video. Check out my favourite band growing up – Apna Sangeet – steal the spotlight.

I heard the song on BBC Radio this past week, and it’s not exactly a dance floor filler, but it is a great track, and I can tell you that Shin (DCS) ripped it.

The “Unity” performance on Television takes place on November 20, 2009. As I get more details, I’ll keep you all updated.

Dark MC “Chori Chori” Promo

I am truly looking forward to this CD. “It’s Getting Dark in Here” was a bad man’s album!

Now Dark MC is on his way back, with a new ten track album featuring what he is calling the anthem of 2009.

“Chori Chori.” features the vocals of Jaswinder Daghamia, and his vocal abilities have not been utilised by many Producers. (If you haven’t heard “Gabru Gulab Warga” on Gupsy Aujla’s album, you are missing out!)

“Incisive,” which is set to be released on the MovieBox label in the fall, will feature vocals by (Late) Kaka Bhaniawala, Nirmal Sidhu, Labh Janjua and more.

The tracks are predominantly written by Bhindi Laltonwala. I’m sure you have heard tracks written by him before, including the free downloads Dark MC gave away in June. I don’t know what’s been going on with Bhindi Laltonwala as of late, because his lyrics make me want to go out and do baaaaad things.

Notorious Jatt “Khanda” Video

Khanda Artwork

Where to begin?

I received the promo for this song two weeks ago, but I didn’t want to put it up until I had formulated an opinion. I thought if the video was released soon enough, it would clear up some questions.

After watching the video, I can see they tried their best to justify the lyrics of the song.

The track is typical Notorious Jatt hype music, but the lyrics still irk me. In no way am I a conservative shrew, but I just cannot get past the chorus.

“Asal Peshaan Panjabi Dhee Gal Paiya Khanda”

“You can recognise a true Panjabi as they have a Khanda around their neck”

Huh?

The line has caused quite a stir, as they’re bringing religion into what will inevitable be perceived as a club anthem.

Now I know there is a lot of people out there that do rock a Khanda on their chain, or in their rear view mirror, or are tatted up with one.

But look at this:

Not all Panjabis are Sikhs AND Not all Sikhs are Panjabis

See what I did right there? But that is my Western thought.

Talking to someone from the East, and they simply tell you, it doesn’t matter what you’re background is, there are all types of people living in Panjab that wear a Khanda around their neck, so I shouldn’t take the chorus so literally.

I can’t do it.

I think the wording is wrong, even within the context they are attempting to display in the video. They could have done some things in the video to clarify their position more, but instead they fudged it.

I haven’t heard Notorious Jatt or Nirmal Sidhu offer any justification to the lyrics yet, but stay tuned. This may get ugly.

The album “Still Livin’ It Up,” is set to contain a lineup of;

Kulvinder Johal, Preet Mahadipuria, Ranjit Mani, Pargat Khan, Kaka Bhaniawala and more.

The first single “Khanda” is set to release on iTunes on May 22.

After listening to the music of the track, I get the feeling like I’ve heard this beat before, and I think I have. Notorious has been producing for a couple of other singers (like Juz’D,) and I think the beats were similar on that album.

The label tried to make it a point to say that this is Notorious’ first solo album since three years ago. I guess they don’t want us to get confused, although it’s hard when everything sounds the same.

MoneySpinner “Desh Panjab Di” Video

Last week I posted promos on the MoneySpinner album “Poetry.” Well here is the first video from the album.

Nirmal Sidhu killed it on the vocals. It’s not exactly a dance tune, but the video does make me want to be jumping out and around in the Pend.

The album drops on February 25th, and can be purchased digitally from VIP Records. I’m also happy to note that they now offer their digital downloads as an mp3 file, rather than wma format.

Question is, What do you think of the video?

MoneySpinner “Poetry” Release Info

Poetry Cover

When I hear the word poetry it doesn’t exactly fill me up with any energy. So when that word is used to name a UK Bhangra album, that same energy I expect to experience with an album isn’t quite there.

MoneySpinner, a group of 4 musicians is set to release their sophomore album titled “Poetry.” They justify the use of the title by stating that the album “features some truly great vocalists, lyrics and music, all complimenting each other to produce ‘Poetry’ in motion.”

The eight track album features the vocals of Jaspinder Narula, Miss Pooja, Nirmal Sidhu, Balwinder Matewaria and Meet Malkit.

Alreh

Desh Panjab Di

Vicherian Deh Meleh

For more info on the group, or to order a copy, hit up VIP Records

The video looks good and Nirmal Sidhu lays down a solid vocal. But does it stir any emotions in you? Or is it just more blasé stuff being released?

Taj-E “Sik ‘n’ Twisted” Promo Video

Sound Pipe Records artist Taj-E is just about set to release his album “Sik ‘n’ Twisted” in April. From the clip, I see the lineup consists of Juggy D, Kaka (looking rather pimp in Puma) and Nirmal Sidhu.

UPDATE

Taj-E passed along an email, adding to the list of singers with Bee2 as well as Bradley from S Club 7. He also stated that the album is Desi, with a bit of Urban RnB and Hip Hop. Here’s to hoping Rachel Stevens is in one of the videos.

I haven’t been a Taj-E fan, I found his last two albums a little too slow for my liking. However, this album sounds better, and we finally get to see some new material from Juggy D.

What do you think?

DJ H & DJ Rags – “Char Panj” Video

Video number four from DJ H and DJ Rags featuring the real Miss Pooja and Nirmal Sidhu – I think that may be some kind of an accomplishment in itself.

The video is a straight performance piece, but the effect used was pretty creative, but somewhat irritating at the same time.

Well at least we now know what dance move to do while we’re at a party. Let’s call it “The Char Panj.”

I’ve heard there may be a fifth video on the horizon as well. These boys got some real deep pockets.
