268: Laxmikant-Pyarelal // Dosti

Dosti Laxmikant-Pyarelal 1964, Angel

Composing partners Laxmikant Shantaram Kudalkar and Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma worked together for 35 years and, per Hindustan Times,composed about 2,900 songs for 750 different films during that span—a level of productivity basically unfathomable outside of the specific context of the insanely prolific Bollywood studio system. 1966’s Dosti soundtrack was their artistic and commercial breakthrough, and as such it occupies a significant place in Indian music history. I’ve never seen the film, though its cover features two crying boys hugging so it may be up my alley. The Wikipedia synopsis makes it sound like a melodrama without parallel (aside from several hundred others made by Bollywood that same year). The movie opens with a boy’s father dying in an industrial catastrophe, his mother fainting and falling down the stairs (to her death), and then the boy getting disabled in an accident of his own. He then makes friends with a homeless blind boy, and the two chums are then rigorously wedgied by life itself for the next three hours until a happy ending imposes itself.

Working with lyricist Majrooh Sultanpuri (a notable leftist poet), Laxmikant-Pyarelal’s songs are strongly credited with Dosti’s enduring success, and while I’m neither an expert in their oeuvre nor Bollywood music as a whole, I can tell you this is beautiful music any fan of adventurous vintage pop should adore. The songs all strike my ear as happy, but with a tear welling in their eyes. It’s more subtle stuff than I associate with contemporary Bollywood: “Gudiya Kab Tak Na Hasogy” twinkles and minces to a gentle dance rhythm, leaving room for soulful flute and harmonium (or accordion?) solos and the melancholy lilt of a mandolin. Both members of the duo had a strong education in Western and Indian classical music, and these sentimental songs find the sweet spot between the traditions, with vigorous tabla rhythms and droning strings meeting melodies that evoke spaghetti western scores (“Janewalo Zara”) or practically quote “Ode to Joy” (“Rahi Manwa”).

It was the convention at the time for a reliable cadre of vocalists to dub over the singing voices of the lead actors, and Laxmikant-Pyarelal established long-standing relationships with their favourites. Dosti features two of their standbys, with Mohammed Rafi handling five of the six songs on the 10” soundtrack I own, and Lata Mangeshkar taking the other. Both absolute legends on the subcontinent, while Rafi and Mangeshkar were each well into adulthood by the time they recorded these songs they give such naively haloed performances that if you can squint (your ears?) just a little it’s easy to imagine they might have originated from the lips of children.

The scope of my expertise in this area is extremely limited, but if it’s not clear, Dosti gets my highest recommendation. If you should come across a ‘60s record with the Laxmikant-Pyarelal imprimatur at your local used shop, give it a shot.

stone realizing his feelings stone realizing his feelings stone realizing his feelings stone realizing his feelings stone realizing his feelings stone realizing his fee—

Stone realized his feelings for you in the most unassuming way ever. You helped him restock the supply closet in the hospital building, something he told you he could do himself, but you wanted to help. So here you two were, side by side in a little supply closet.

Okay, you were a little outside of the closet with a box of supplies, simply because Stone took up so much space and it was a compact closet. But you were still side by side.

Stone was being handed supplies by you before he put them on their designated shelves, since he was the taller one out of you two. He was focused on his task, barely even glancing at you, but rather at what you were giving him and where the specific medical supply item needed to go on the shelf.

Until you started humming. He at first didn't think nothing of it, until he heard the lyrics. It was a song from a Bollywood movie, he'd know Hindi words anywhere. Maybe you spoke Hindi fluently, maybe you didn't, but it was Hindi alright.

"What song is that?" Stone asked, stopping your humming. He put down whatever item was in his hand and turned to look at you, finally. "It sounds like it's from a Bollywood movie, probably one of the newer ones since I don't know it."

You were shocked at the sudden conversation but you found yourself smiling. "Oh, it's "Dance Ka Bhoot" from the movie Brahmāstra Part One: Shiva. I watched it recently and the song's stuck in my head," you replied.

It had been so long since Stone had met someone who watched Bollywood movies, most people just made fun of them. Granted, he didn't watch Bollywood movies, he'd need a TV for that, but he listened to Bollywood songs. They were the only songs he ever listened to, getting vinyl records of the albums with the help of Kali and one of his neighbors.

"It sounds nice," Stone murmured.

That seemed like the end of the conversation, the two of you going back to silently working. You continued to hum the song and he continued to put supplies on the shelves.

That evening, he made a letter to Kali to get the vinyl record of the soundtrack from the movie so that he could listen to it when his deployment was over. And after his letter was written and put in the envelope with the envelope all stamped properly, his mind went back to your humming of the song.

At first, he thought his remembrance of the humming was because it sounded like a good song, but then he realized that he really liked your voice. And that started a snowball effect, with Stone thinking about everything he liked about you.

He liked your knowledge about the stars, the way you two could bond over them. He liked the way your presence calmed Monster down, how you two played with the cat often. He liked the way you smiled, how it brightened any room. He liked how you took the time to give him a birthday gift, drawing him and Monster because you didn't know what to get him but you had wanted to give him something.

And that was when it hit him. He likes you, romantically. Fuck.

Ok here my full vinyl collection!! :3

AKA my shelf that is worth more than what is in my back account.

First up: Joywave. Obviously. Yes I have three Cleanse records. Ironically it’s my least favorite album of theirs. My first Joywave record was Possession (bought it in 2020), and my most recent one is Ridge (also the only pre-owned one). Everything else was brand new/sealed when I bought them! Brain Damage is still on the way…

I think the only releases I am missing are How Do You Feel?, 30% Off, Dangerous 7”, and some flexis. I don’t really care about collecting those though. But 30% off would be nice.

Next is my EE collection. I just started it in the past year when they dropped Man Alive Deluxe. I’m hoping to own all their albums someday! (Save me GTH reissue save me) I’m also waiting on another copy of Mountainhead to be delivered, it’s signed!

Here is a very small Young The Giant collection. I bought American Bollywood at a show and I snagged a pre-owned Mirror Master off eBay. Absolutely absurd how much they’re going for, I was very lucky to get it at a little above face value.

And………….. everything else! Gay ass music taste I know. My favorites are Pop Food, Gameshow Deluxe, Variations on a Cloud. Very happy to own those! :D Currently waiting on a Good & Evil preorder to officially establish a Tally Hall collection.

I also have like 5 random records from the 50s-80s that I got at thrift stores.

Ok that’s all hope you enjoyed reading. Love my records very much. <3 I like to infodump about them to anyone who steps foot in my house.

Well, Stone does only listen to music via vinyl records so I can totally see him being the electronics/records store because he's been trying to branch out and listen to something other than Bollywood music.

Imagine them bumping into each other because the CDs are like right near the vinyls.

The Role of Independent Artists in Shaping the Net Worth of the Indian Music Industry

The Indian music industry has witnessed exponential growth over the past decade, with its net worth reaching new heights. While mainstream Bollywood music continues to dominate, a significant portion of this growth can be attributed to the rise of independent artists. These musicians, who operate outside the traditional music label structure, are redefining the landscape of Indian music. By leveraging digital platforms and social media, independent artists are not only gaining massive followings but also contributing substantially to the Indian music industry’s net worth. This article delves into the impact of independent artists on the industry, exploring how they are shaping its financial future and cultural landscape.

The Rise of Independent Music in India:

Historical Context: Traditionally, the Indian music industry was dominated by Bollywood, with major labels controlling most of the music production and distribution. However, the advent of the internet and digital platforms has democratized the music space, allowing independent artists to reach audiences directly.

Emergence of Indie Labels and Artists: The early 2000s saw the emergence of indie labels that began supporting non-film music. Over time, these labels nurtured talents that would eventually become household names. Artists like Prateek Kuhad, Ritviz, and Divine have carved out niches in genres like folk, electronic, and hip-hop, respectively, showing that there's a market for music beyond Bollywood.

How Independent Artists Generate Revenue:

Streaming Platforms: With platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube, independent artists have multiple avenues to monetize their music. Streaming revenue, though modest per stream, accumulates over time, especially for artists with large and engaged fanbases.

Live Performances: Concerts and music festivals have become significant revenue streams for independent artists. Events like NH7 Weekender and Sunburn have provided platforms for indie artists to perform alongside mainstream acts, increasing their visibility and earnings.

Merchandising: Many independent artists have turned to merchandise as an additional revenue source. From T-shirts to vinyl records, fans are eager to purchase memorabilia, further boosting the artists' income.

Crowdfunding: Some artists have successfully used crowdfunding platforms to finance their albums or tours, directly involving their fans in the creative process. This not only generates revenue but also strengthens the artist-fan relationship.

The Impact of Social Media and Digital Platforms:

Direct Engagement with Fans: Social media platforms like Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook allow independent artists to connect directly with their fans. This direct line of communication helps in building a loyal fanbase that actively supports the artist’s work.

Viral Marketing: Platforms like TikTok have revolutionized music discovery. Independent artists can now release a song and see it go viral within days, thanks to user-generated content and challenges that spread like wildfire across the internet.

YouTube and Visual Content: YouTube has become a vital platform for independent artists. Music videos, lyric videos, and behind-the-scenes content help artists engage with their audience while generating ad revenue.

Challenges Faced by Independent Artists:

Financial Constraints: Independent artists often lack the financial backing that major labels provide. This makes it challenging to produce high-quality music and videos, which can limit their reach.

Market Saturation: With the democratization of music production, there is an influx of new artists, making it harder for any single artist to stand out.

Navigating the Business Side: Many independent artists are primarily focused on their craft and may lack the business acumen needed to effectively manage their careers. This can lead to missed opportunities and financial instability.

Success Stories of Indian Independent Artists:

Prateek Kuhad: Known for his soulful lyrics and soothing voice, Prateek Kuhad has become one of India’s most successful independent artists. His song "cold/mess" gained international recognition after being featured on Barack Obama’s playlist.

Ritviz: Blending Indian classical music with electronic beats, Ritviz has created a unique sound that resonates with a wide audience. His track "Udd Gaye" became an anthem for many, cementing his place in the indie music scene.

Divine: A pioneer in the Indian hip-hop scene, Divine’s rise from the streets of Mumbai to international fame is a testament to the power of independent music. His raw, authentic lyrics have inspired a new generation of rappers in India.

The Future of Independent Music in India:

Continued Growth: With increasing access to digital tools and platforms, the future looks bright for independent artists in India. As more artists find success outside the traditional label system, the net worth of the Indian music industry is likely to see continued growth.

Collaborations with Mainstream Artists: The lines between independent and mainstream music are blurring, with collaborations becoming more common. These collaborations not only boost the profile of indie artists but also contribute to the overall wealth of the industry.

Conclusion: Independent artists have become a powerful force in the Indian music industry, contributing significantly to its growth and net worth. By leveraging digital platforms, social media, and innovative revenue streams, these artists are challenging the dominance of traditional music labels and creating a more diverse and dynamic music scene. As the industry continues to evolve, the role of independent artists will undoubtedly become even more pivotal, shaping the future of the Indian music industry’s net worth.

Change adds flavour to life, while monotony is a curse. Nobody understands this more than an explorer. Mumbai is known as the 'City of Dreams' with iconic landmarks, vibrant culture, artwork and crowded streets. While everybody visits iconic tourist spots like Marine Drive and Gateway of India, many hidden gems are waiting to be explored. In this offbeat itinerary, we'll take you on a journey to discover some of Mumbai's lesser-known treasures.

Chor Bazaar

If you are coming from Delhi then you can book the most reasonable Delhi to Mumbai flight to explore the city. Start your offbeat Mumbai adventure at Chor Bazaar, which translates to "Thieves' Market." The lively market is a valuable source of antiques, vintage goods, and one-of-a-kind collectibles. From old Bollywood posters to vintage cameras and classic vinyl records, Chor Bazaar is a paradise for collectors and bargain hunters.

Banganga Tank

Hidden within the neighbourhood of Walkeshwar Temple, the Banganga Tank is a tranquil oasis that offers a glimpse into Mumbai's rich history. This ancient water tank is surrounded by ornate temples and is said to date back to the time of the Mahabharata. It's a serene spot to escape the chaos of the city and soak in some culture.

Global Vipassana Pagoda

Located on the outskirts of Mumbai on Gorai Island, the Global Vipassana Pagoda is a massive meditation hall that tourists often overlook. This stunning monument is surrounded by lush greenery and offers a panoramic view of the Arabian Sea. It's a peaceful place to learn about Vipassana meditation and admire the impressive architecture.

Sewri Fort

Tucked away in the heart of the city, Sewri Fort is a historical gem that's often overlooked. Built by the British in the 17th century, this fort offers a glimpse into Mumbai's colonial past. Explore its sturdy ramparts and catch a glimpse of the city's skyline from this hidden vantage point.

Worli Sea Face Promenade

While Marine Drive is the more famous waterfront promenade, Worli Sea Face offers a quieter and more authentic experience. Stroll along the Worli promenade at sunset and enjoy breathtaking views of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link. It's a great spot for some introspection and peaceful moments by the sea.

Sewri Fort Road Street Art

Mumbai's street art scene is vibrant, but one lesser-known location to admire these creative works is along the Sewri Fort Road. This area has become a canvas for talented street artists who have transformed the drab walls into colourful murals and thought-provoking graffiti.

Dadar Flower Market

332: Talat Mahmood // Spring Blossoms

Spring Blossoms Talat Mahmood 1967, His Master's Voice

“Handsome, debonair Talat Mahmood has been the idol of listeners for the last several years. His mild mellow voice and expressive style makes him ideally suited for putting over on disc, lyrics with soulful poetic contents. The Geets and Ghazals rendered by him on this disc once again establish that he is the King of the Ghazal-singers and there is none to beat him in style and superb execution.”

That’s how a note on the back of the Spring Blossoms sleeve puts it, and I’ve few qualms. Mahmood’s voice is indeed as smooth as they come, and there is plenty of soul to these numbers, though the word several there is doing some strange work—by 1967 Mahmood had been a major star for a quarter century!

I’ve covered a couple of ghazal-related records in this series (see here and here), but as a refresher, the ghazal is a form of Arabo-Persian poetic ode (classically a simultaneous address to an absent lover and to God) that has remained popular in the East for nearly 1,500 years. The ghazal is based on metrically regular rhyming couplets, a repetitive structure which makes it easy to adapt to a musical form. Ghazals are found in both Indian art and pop music, and most of the legendary Bollywood playback singers (including Asha Bosle, Mohammad Rafi, and Lata Mangeshkar) had many in their repertoires.

The ghazal’s subject matter is inevitably rather blue, but they are also often celebratory in a mystically existential kind of way—life’s pain cannot be avoided, but a poet is allowed to twirl while he displays his wounds and counts his jutting ribs. In Mahmood’s case, any discomforting sorrow is pillowed by the gentle, velvet quaver in his voice. This is music which releases tears without leaving marks, like a bloodless surgery (don’t talk to me about reiki). Mind you, I don’t mean that as an attack on its sentimentality. Daily life for Mahmood’s audience was hard and tiring, and the opportunity to have their emotions tenderly exercised by beauty is a fine thing. These people didn’t need to have catharsis thrust upon them by the kinds of sonic or poetic terrorism that I, a sheltered western pervert, occasionally require to feel feelings. But I also enjoy this album a lot!

Spring Blossoms is quite pop for the standards of its pre-rock ‘n’ roll time and place, which is to say that it is slow, sweet, and elegant in an almost courtly way that has more in common tonally with western light classical or Eastern European folk than it does the Anglo-American pop of the period. Great titles too: “Those Who Listen to Me While Hugging Me, Know That My Love is Beautiful” sounds like Explosions in the Sky doing kids music, while “I Am Drunk, I Am Naked” could be either Rumi or Viagra Boys.

i need stone with a dilf. just a rich ass old man

Well, technically Stone is with the Older!Neighbor in one of the AUs (I hc all of my Reader drabbles, OC & 141 ones, as alternate universes so that they can all function without overlapping with each other 'cause we want to see the OCs with multiple different pairings) but that Reader isn't rich or a DILF.

I can't see Stone with someone who is rich, simply because that man is very minimalistic and tech-averse. The man doesn't have a TV or a phone because he wants to stay technology-free as much as he can while being a soldier. He drives a beat-up Jeep because it works (still don't know how, considering he rarely uses it) and he doesn't see the need to get any of the newer models. The only thing rich!Reader would be able to give him are astrology books, medical books, and vinyl records of Bollywood movie soundtracks.

That being said, DILF!Reader could totally be a thing. Stone is cold and stoic when you first meet him, so he probably shouldn't meet your kid(s) until after he's warmed up to you, but he is step-father material. I mean, he's blunt which might make the younger kids cry, but he'll play with them. He doesn't care if he has to sit in a chair meant for children to have a tea party with them, he'll do it if they ask.

I can totally see him buying a ton of parenting books because God knows he did not have the best parents and thus no good parenting examples to reference. He'll try his best though and will listen to your advice. And he's so gentle with the kids, holding them tight but not too tight, just enough for his hold on them to be secure.

Fun fact, there was a version of Stone in my head who had gotten pregnant when he was sixteen (it's a whole thing) and had a daughter who was the only one who saw his soft side. He gives girl dad vibes.

Please ask me more about Stone and his daughter, I have so much to say.

For the full list of dates and current ticket availability, visit the band’s website HERE.   American Bollywood is now available on vinyl on the band’s webstore and streaming everywhere via AWAL/Jungle Youth Records. A Spotify Fans First edition is also available as an exclusive “thank you” to the band’s top listeners on the platform. Since the last album, Mirror Master, three of the band members became fathers. With lyrics mostly written by the band’s lead singer Sameer Gadhia, the son of Indian immigrants, the album tells the multi-generational saga of the American immigrant, and the origins, exiles, battles, and denouement of reclaiming their collective identity. “This is not just the story of an Indian-American caught in between two worlds,” the band’s Sameer Gadhia previously said, “it’s also our universal search to find meaning in chaos.” The album was co-produced by John Hill (Santigold, M.I.A., Phantogram, Khalid) and the members of Young The Giant. In addition to the album, EP, and tour, Gadhia was named to Variety’s 2022 Inclusion Impact Report, the publication’s annual list highlighting advocates for inclusivity who’ve made an impact in the entertainment industry over the past year. In 2020, he launched Point of Origin on SIRIUSXM’s Alt Nation, a platform to amplify voices of color, and it has just returned this past April after a year-long hiatus. The first episode back features Iranian-American musician Rahill and her song “Fables” feat. Beck. Gadhia will expand this campaign as he continues to be a prominent, unwavering voice for equality and change. He is also currently the featured guest in Apple’s 2023 Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AAPIHM) editorial campaign that launched on May 10, 2023.   Young The Giant and Activist will partner with REVERB to reduce the tour's environmental footprint and engage with fans to take action for people and the planet.
