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!

Panjabi MC “Bari Barsi” (12 Months)

Panjabi MC as you may know, dropped his latest summer anthem “Bari Barsi” this past Thursday, and it rocketed straight into the top 100 UK iTunes charts (so far settling at no. 89)

Lately, whenever PMC releases a song, I can’t help but think that the music is just different enough to make people buy the song, but at the same time, it sounds almost like his previous few songs. Case in point, I played it in my car this past Friday for one of my boys as we were going for lunch, and as soon as the music started, he mockingly started singing the lyrics to “Moorni”.

My spidey senses also started tingling a few weeks ago, when a certain Producer from the UK tweeted something to the sentiment of a Producer he looks up to has the same sound in most of his songs, and that he should start to switch up his sound.

With all of this in mind, I still think Panjabi MC is one of the best Producers out there (obviously). His songs still have a certain polish to them that other Producers still aren’t capable of matching. I can’t help but liken P’s skills to the rest of the people in the Bhangra game as a Toyota compared to a Lexus. Yes, the Toyota is well made, all the fundamentals are there, but a Lexus is just an overly nicer polished vehicle.

Moving on to the video, I’m glad someone finally used Bhangra Empire in a video. They have been working extremely hard on their performances over the years, and I’m glad that they are getting – even more – worldwide exposure.

Also, the fact that Ashok Gill made it on to the video is also a fantastic showcase.

Support the track, and get your copy from iTunes.

PMC Debuts “Bari Barsi” in NYC

DJing at Basement Bhangra in New York over their Thanksgiving Holiday, Panjabi MC debuted his upcoming track on his next album “56 Districts”.

The song has Panjabi MC’s now classic iTumbi sound, along with a heavy synth and bass line.

What do you think?

Oh, before he drops the album, there’s a small matter of releasing the Moorni Remix featuring Warren G.

R.I.P. Kuldeep Manak (1949-2011)

I awoke to the sad news that Kuldeep Manak Ji had passed away, after battling with a bout of Pneumonia.

At one point or another, even the most casual Punjabi song listener has heard a Kuldeep Manak song, whether it be an original song of his, or a remix. His music inspired and touched the lives of millions over a span of multiple generations.

The Kaliyan Da Badshah may be gone, but his music will live on.

Kuldeep Manak – Heer Doli Beh Gai Kherian Di

Kuldeep Manak – Sahiban Bani Bharavan Di

Kuldeep Manak – Chithiyan

Kuldeep Manak – GT Road

Immortal Bhangra – Kachehari

Twin Beats – Manak Drops the Pressure

Panjabi MC – Sarwan Phuter

Panjabi MC – Yaar Mera Chad Giya

Panjabi MC – Laila

Panjabi MC – Muthiar Tooh

Thoughts and condolences go to Manak Ji’s family and loved ones.
