Ankur Tewari, Kausar Munir on creating Coke Studio Bharat and the indie music scene in India

The stage seemed set for a resplendent new era; the ballroom is bright with chandeliers and flowers at every table, three rows of tables filled with musicians, and a trailer voiced by the inimitable baritone of Amitabh Bachchan. The raison d’etre for the glamour? The launch of Coke Studio’s newest edition in India. After an eight-year-long hiatus, the series is back in a new form, with a new name…

[aratrikauwu]

When I left my village to leave for Kolkata, it felt like I left a chunk of my soul there. I left my home, I left my happiness, I left my peace. Most important of all, I left her. The city of life, Kolkata, has drained the life out of me. I crave the village, I crave the shade of the trees, I crave her embrace. I can go back to the village, I can't go back to her.

বালিশ চাদর এপাশ ওপাশ

একটুখানি গড়িয়ে নেওয়া,

Alas! Had I secured the job a little earlier, she would have been beside me, we would have been happy and I would not have been lying in my bed, with unkempt pillows beside me, yearning for her love. The whole city is asleep, barring me. I really crave happiness, the happiness only her words of affirmation can give me.

I often wonder, is she happy with her partner? I heard she got married to the village headman's son. I didn't know how to react to the news. I guess, she could not wait anymore ; maybe, he was better. Maybe, he made her feel what I couldn't.

চোখ দুটো খুব পড়ছে মনে ||

Lots of things were left unsaid between us. I wanted to say so many things to her, I wanted to tell her, how, in nights like this, when I close my eyes, only her beautiful brown eyes come into sight. Those beautiful eyes, adorned with kajal, bewitched me. I loved her, but I loved her eyes from the very core of my heart. A lone tear escapes my eye. But, Alas!

এই কথাটা কেমনে বলি?

Unbeknown to me, in the village, under the shade of the tree, she was yearning for me too. She also craved for a glimpse of me. She wanted to escape the abuse of her in-laws, her husband. She wanted to be with me too. She kept her tears at bay, for she knew, I hated her tears. But, how long could she hold on? How long could I hold on?

কোড়া কান্দে কুড়ি কান্দে, কান্দে বালি হাঁস, ওরে ডাহুকি কান্দনে ও মুই ছাড়নু ভাইয়ার দ্যাশ রে..

She craved for a glimpse of me. She doesn't want any gifts, she only wants to be beside me, she only craves my embrace. Everyday, she lives on the promise I made, that one day, I would come, and take her away, like the princes in fairytales. Her husband, the son of the village headman, beats her to a pulp everyday, while she, endures it, for even today, she will be called a kalankini, if she dares to break off the marriage.

ও দিয়া ও দিয়া যান রে বন্ধু ডারা না হোন পার ওরে থাউক মন তোর, দিবার থুবার দেখায় পাওয়া ভার রে||

She did not get tired of waiting. She did not break the promise out of grudge. She was not happy in her marriage, with her in-laws. She was forced to get married, she had to oblige to her ailing father's choices, who wanted to see her get married before he left the world. She did not have a choice. She had to listen to her family.

ওকি একবার আসিয়া সোনার চান্দ মোর ,যাও দেখিয়া রে||

She wanted to scream this out to me. She wanted to tell me how she truly felt. But, she did not have a choice, she was bound by shackles of femininity, dignity, while I was bound by the shackles of responsibility, masculinity. Both of us were bound. Alas, she had now choice but, to sit under the shade of the tree, looking at the river, hoping to see me come to the village, to take her away with me. A lone tear escaped her eyes, while she thought,

"এই কথাটা কেমনে বলি?"

(This was heavily inspired by this song)

[whysosiriushuh]

"The conversation is between my god, my destiny, and me. Why are you interrupting?" - Coke Studio Bharat | Bayo | Cyli Khare x Srushti Tawade x Komorebi

Coke Studio Bharat (formerly known as Coke Studio India) recently released an absolute banger of a song. I liked it so much that I decided to try my hand at making GIF sets.

Mohabbat nai

[themarvellouspoetrydream]

since it’s that time of the year again, let me just say this: KEEP MY MAHISHASURAMARDINI STOTRAM OUT OF YOUR ROCK MUSIC!

[lokh]

Im gonna need your like, whole musical rec list, bc literally every song you have posted has not flopped once, give me your faves i need to eat them

OUGHHH YOUVE UNLOCKED THE BEAST ARGSHHFHJDF....

in the interest of making this both easily accessible but not stretching the dashboard, im embedding bandcamp links when i can, otherwise linking to youtube when unavailable

in no particular order, inclusion based mostly on what im still actively into LMAO but also just things you should give a go at least once:

list of artist recommendations

zeal and ardor: described as a mix of african-american spirituals and black metal. try devil is fine, you aint coming back, wake of a nation or church burns

bloodywood: indian folk metal, literally nobody is doing it like them. recently featured in monkey man (2024), try chakh le, yaad or dana dan

stromae: if youve never heard any of his songs WHAT ARE YOU DOING..... incredible lyricist, described as a blend of hip hop/electronic. papaoutai made the rounds on tumblr a while back, but you should also try santé and l'enfer

alamat: pinoy pop. a youtube commenter described them as sounding like 2nd gen kpop which probably also explains why i took a shine to them LMAO, notable for the amount of filipino culture on display and the diversity thereof (singing in different languages, themes). first heard them thru kasmala either here or on twitter lmao, try aswang or maharani

andy bull: alt-pop. a lot of poppy and upbeat songs with a melancholic undertone imo. an australian artist, try it's all connected or keep on running

cosmo sheldrake: electronic, wikipedia also lists him as folktronica and baroque pop. you may have heard the song come along on an apple ad - hes known for sampling sounds from nature. pliocene for example features sounds from endangered ecosystems.

if you like cosmo sheldrake, you might like hidden orchestra (electronica, ambient). also making use of field recordings, i really love the archipelago mixtape but its a hard sell at about an hour lmao. if you like the following song then i implore you to give it a go

son lux: experimental, you may have heard from them in the entire soundtrack for everything everywhere all at once (!!!!!). try dangerous, dream state (brighter night) or live another life.

ammar 808: electronic/world fusion, also behind bargou 08 (folk rock you should also listen to). i just cant get ain essouda out of my head, but i also love geeta duniki

miyavi: j-rock, used to be a visual kei artist. these days he might be known more for anime openings like flashback (kokkoku) or other side (id:invaded), or for work like snakes in arcane (or actually inspiring and voicing a character in it), but ive always been partial to his early work like sukkyanen myv or ashita, genki ni naare

songs/albums

'threads' album by now, now (indie rock).

'dream to make believe' or 'what to do when you are dead' by armor for sleep (rock, emo). here's the truth about heaven from the latter album

i already posted about it but denzel curry's 13lood 1n + 13lood out mixx (rap, trap) is extremely good

the guilty gear soundtracks and im so serious im not fucking joking. different kinds of rock and metal and all sorts of influences put in, a genuine labor of love. xrd and earlier games are mainly instrumental with some vocal tracks (try give me a break or big blast sonic), while strive pretty much always includes vocals (of course i need to rec rock parade, but also try requiem. its genuinely hard for me to pick and choose lmao)

not an album and not an artist

coke studio pakistan and coke studio bangla knocking it out of the fucking park, im particularly a fan of harkalay and kotha koiyo na. you could try the other coke studios too (tamil, india, etc)

triple j like a version is when the radio station triple j brings in artists and has them do a cover of a song (artists choice). i liked denzel curry's cover of bulls on parade and flume's shooting stars (video for this one is incredible, man had a vision you just have to stick it out), but you get a lot of interesting interpretations like the wombats' running up that hill, gordi's in the end or, infamously. the wiggles' elephant

ive DEFINITELY missed out some, but thats what my music tag is for LMAO i hope someone discovers something they like here!!!!

[timetravellingkitty]

We made the wrong Kakkar famous

[sillverstreets]

this random coke studio India song is playing on an ad on tv and...i actually love it idk what language it is

[taegularities]

About Pasoori, Rid, that's t-series, they can make the worst remake of any iconic song with no regret.🤡 Even though I love the og songs of T-series, they don't do justice with the remakes, and why a remake when nobody even asked for it lol)

Coke Studio India and Pakistan have been releasing bops in many languages for decades, and most of them have ended up being translated into a Bollywood Hindi remake song. And it's not like they are making these songs known by remaking them when they literally ARE popular.

I am a Rajasthani, and I cringed real hard when I first heard the Hindi remake of Chaudhary song (an old Coke studio song in Marwari, which was also featured in Balika Vadhu if yk). Even though I speak Hindi, that song was literally a part of my Childhood! and hearing that song being translated into Hindi was painful, the og vibes didn't match at all!

I understand that Bollywood produces many movies in a single year that contain way too many songs, so they can't help but make few remakes, but still, why? Even the the general public doesn't like these remakes, they still make them! I literally have a love-hate relationship with T-Series in this whole music production matter. :')

Sorry for my long ramble, I never really shared my thoughts on this topic with anyone before, and I genuinely apologize if I bored you and you had to read all of this. :')

ahhh, don't apologise for the ramble, i understand what you're saying. you're right, bollywood does produce a shit ton of movies a year, so they're bound to hit a wall once in a while when it comes to new music. choosing old songs and remaking them seems like an easy option and i don't blame them. but yeah, i think sometimes it doesn't quite work. i don't necessarily think the pasoori remake is bad, i just think it wasn't needed bc the original is already so amazing.. and i think if it's hard to come up with music, it's also sometimes okay to not include any at all — i know a lot of movies that had 0-2 songs in them, but they were still such a success (looking at you, pathaan), but yeah. i understand that music is an integral part of bollywood, i just hope that even if they continue making remakes, they do so carefully or let the same artists sing those. some just weren't my thing :(
