Peace all,
the pakistani pop and rock music is just as good IF NOT BETTER than the indian movie songs .
Better, much better...wholeheartedly agree!

Salaam everyone!
I was waiting for someone to come along and scream, "Music is haraam in Islam!" lolAnyways I have a huge record (as in vinyl collection) of 50's and 60's music, ranging from jazz, to latin, to R&B, blues, surf, easy listening/lounge, polynesian, bellydance etc. as well as punk and psychedelic and some 70's rock like Hendrix and Janis Joplin.
I also love
punk (Someone mentioned Anti Flag whom I saw many years ago at a local punk club here. They were really great and very nice people)hardcore (as in NYHC, sXe stuff like Youth of Today, Nations on Fire, Mind Over Matter, Gorilla Biscuits etc)
psychedelic rock (Glass Prism, Savage Rose, West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, Lottie Golden)
70's rock like Hendrix, Joplin
alternative
80's music
Persian musicsome electronic music like Hotel Costes CDs and Frequent Flyer Bombay
arabic music like Natacha Atlas and Amina
anything that sounds good!
I cannot stand rap though....that misogynist and materialistic atttitude just gets to me.

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan came to the Double Tree Inn where I used to work and I got to see a concert of his...
I've never seen Pakistani music albums on screen, but my dormy was this Indian and they used to watch Indian movie albums and they were awful...the girls would wear skimpy clothes and do pole dancing....and somehow they considered that to be a sign of India moving forward roll
I was like gee you objectified and materialized women in the past and you are doing the same thing now!

I like nusrat fateh, he was quite good, the album 'night song' with michael brook is an excellent album.
Pakistani movie music sucks (so do the majority of movies), but the pop/rock/underground music scene is really good now, even the videos are improving qualitywise, none of that skimpy stuff there obviously, so they have to turn to more creative avenues which imo is the way good videos are made. I agree with you regarding indian movies, but their art movies are darn good, i really like watching those, but the commercial ones are awful...personally i can't stand songs in movies being lip synched and gyrated to...but yes, soon i guess, pakistani music will start coming out internationally, there are a few examples like strings, junoon and fuzon etc that went 'over the border' ... but i'm sure it's a matter of time, the music is good enough )

Salaam People,
Is anyone here familiar with Acid Jazz?? Specifically, is anyone familiar with the The Best of Acid Jazz volumes put out by the label called Instinct Records??
Peace Y'all,

I getting into soundtracks by Danny Elfman and Elliot Goldenthal for the Batman series.
-
Peace T.A.F.K.A.G,
Danny Elfman is amazing. Since you're into soundtracks, try Peter Gabriel's "Passion", the soundtrack from "The Last Temptation of Christ". It is, in my opinion, one of the best soundtracks ever made. He did it with a 40 piece orchestra scatted from all around the Middle East. Powerful stuff.
Peace,
