‘Euphoria’s sound is more Pakistani than Indian’

[MilSpec]

the journalist lead on a question of euphoria sounds more Pakistani than Indian and asked Palash da's opinion... he pretty much was being polite.

People should check out euphoria's website, not sure if they still have it but it documented thier Hard rock and metal days, and few years before Dhoom Pichuck, Palash and Debjyoti making the transition into Indian folk rock with Hindi the final nail in their english cover days. Dhoom came from simple midnight rant from palsh on a Asus2, C, D chords which was then worked the next day to by djb to make what it is today... and the rest is history.

Although they are not a great band in the real sense of talent, but they have had their own niche fusion of 8 beat, with kaharba like traditional rythms.

To me Pakistani bands are distincly different from what Euphoria, does... and when Euphoria does tries to do a Noorie or a Strings, it doesn't turn out well.

no doubt pakistani songs are much better then indian

There is a lots of other Music talents in here other than the Bollywood

Your post is self contradictory .Lance Naik Hemraj was killed by Pakistanis .If that was the case we shouldnt allow those pak actors ,singers and of course their patients in here why?
After all of them are the same nationalities .Pakistanis.

No. My point is that your statement was an over-generalization.

They are as good or bad as any other. I have grown up watching Pakistani soap operas. You see the best of the best on Zindagi on Indian TV. I have seen the whole range. There are good ones, okay ones and bad ones.

You have seen only Coke Studio, but there were and are other shows that suck. Pak Coke Studio is better than the Indian counterpart by a huge margin. But there are other Pak shows that suck. Try watching the MTV Roadies copy that ran in Pakistan. The people are similar, so the things made are naturally similar.

Exactly, there is a huge difference. In fact there are Sufi bands that would have a better fit for the title. But congos to them for a successful show. Being baniyas, we won't say no to moolah.

Yeah, but seeing this if someone says that their shows are crap, that would be ... wrong. And funny.

India has so much diversity in folk... it is an ocean...but stupid coke studio producers are not able to bring them to the mainstream like pakistan coke studio.

Indian coke studio is shit compared to pak one.

Euphoria has performed in Coke Studio.
Have you seen the different seasons ? A lot of Indian artists have been featured there.

Pakistanis are far better than Indians when it comes to TV serials ,Coke Studio and also treating their guests.

Clearly you haven't seen Indian coke studio. Starting from Ladakh to Kanyakumari, Gujarat to Nagaland, all have been featured.

That is why I said TV serials ,Coke Studio .Pakistanis are great hosts ,only for the guests that coming through their airport .
We Indians also wont treat the guests coming through the LoC nicely .You know that.

Nah, they are marital. They get beaten by their wives. Regularly. Ask @PlanetWarrior what happens to his neighbor(and him). As for the rest, there is @Armstrong. But he is as strong as me. Which is a big ZERO.

There is a major diff between the Indian and Pakistani Coke studio.
In Pakistan there is little musical expression now. Their economy is in ruins, parts of the country is in war, terrorism is rampant and extremism has pushed the music appreciating elite to clubs. Coke Studio Pakistan filled that void.

In India, we are more fortunate. There are hundreds of shows, regular ones featuring top singers. Besides, the singers find it more profitable to go solo rather than come under a single platform - simply because there IS a market for all.

Some info. Palash Sen, the lead singer of Euphoria is a Bengali. His father's side is Bengali and his mother's side is Dogra.
He his a doctor with an M.B.B.S degree.

@MilSpec @SrNair @SarthakGanguly Isn't it amusing that a Pakistani newspaper is finding more of a Pakistani in a singer who has a Bengali and Dogra heritage ?

I dont think the implication was anything about Palash da's origins but more about his style of music...
If anyone- I think Kailash Kher's music is like Pakistani Sufi Styled singers.

@MilSpec - Yeah Kailash's songs have Sufi influences. But anyway, as long as it sells in Pakistan, I don't mind.

I have seen these possessive mentality when I read some other news and statements of Pak leaders or their media.One was during the issue that created after marriage of Malik and Sania Mirza.
Some Pak medias and spokesmen even debated about Sanias possible Pakistan citizenship and her equivalent in Pak tennis .But noone in India dont even mentioned about the Malik and possibility of his carreer in Indian Cricket
