| Basheer & The Pied Pipers – Basheer (KM Album Review) Posted: 17 Jul 2012 10:40 AM PDT By Hasan Faridi
Basheer & the Pied Pipers is a live drum and bass duo based in Karachi and Islamabad who make ambient experimental music using a variety of sounds. The album starts with "Yes"; a song blends a variety of instruments to compose an almost-hypnotic track. The track also seems to have a video-gaming essence, as some dazzle noises play behind the fast-paced guitar picking. It all comes to life at the end when a sound effect that comes from Street Fighter says 'You win… Perfect!' That was unexpected. But of course, this music is experimental, so you can expect a lot of surprises. The next tracks, "Once Again" and "Circling Nowhere", ooze experimentalism again. They're noisy tracks at times, but this just shows us how loud Basheer & the Pied Pipers can go (imagine what they're like live). But even so, the duo still makes unique music no matter how niche the music may be. The dedication itself shows a lot. "NXTLVL" is possibly the most powerful track on the whole album. It's fast, it's heavy, and it's filled with bassy drumbeats. If Basheer & the Pied Pipers had a theme song, this would be it. It's even got sounds that resemble Pipers. Get it? Lame jokes aside, "Dreaming To You" and "Seems To Me" show us how hypnotic Basheer & the Pied Pipers music can become. These tracks are some of the mellowest tracks off the whole album, yet are still effective in turning nightmares into sweet dreams. The smallest track off the album happens to be "Monsoon" (around 1:28 in length). It's an experimental yet groovy track that combines a different variety of sounds. Even though it finishes quite quickly, it sounds like it just segues into the next track "Stormdance", that also has that edgy electric guitar sound throughout the song. It's just that in this track, we get to see more guitar dynamics compared to many of the other songs. "Mallet" is perhaps one of the best numbers in the whole album. It's just mesmerising, with the haunting vocals singing in the background as the guitar and bass echo through our ears. The music eventually tones down, but escalate into fast drumbeats. The track is surprising without a doubt. Imagine being trapped in a room full of angels and demons fighting one another… that's what this track sound like. The album finishes off with "You Know I Know I Know", a rather abstract title, and an in-your-face abstract track. We thought we saw enough looking at the album cover art, but we were wrong. This is perhaps the messiest track of the album (with percussion beats ringing everywhere), yet the sounds strangely fuse together. It does however, fit nicely at the end of the album bringing all the sounds of the universe together into one big climax. The album without a doubt is rather unique. Perhaps it's not the one to dance to at a party, but it's definitely one that takes you on a groovy yet trippy journey. It's recommended for a listen whilst looking at the stars, driving on a long motorway or watching the ocean swish over the horizon. Without a doubt, it's great to see original and musically talented composers and artists emerging from Pakistan. No matter what the niche is and no matter what style it is… there is always talent in the country. Basheer & the Pied Pipers are just one of these emerging talents.

| DissBelief – Pen-Chor (KM Single Review) Posted: 17 Jul 2012 08:36 AM PDT By Hasan Faridi
The band consists of Sumair Saeed on vocals, Fahad Humayun Chohan and Hammad Khalid on guitars, Uloomi Karim Shaheen on bass and Najeeb Aftab on drums. Fahad Humayun Chohan of Bracket Productions and Azfar J. Films (an upcoming Pakistani film brand) played a great deal in helping create the track and video. On first glance, they definitely did a great job, as the style of this video is quite unique, including special effects and overhead shots here and there. A lot of artists and bands fail to make their videos as great as the song, or the opposite way round. This band makes both the video and the song entertaining. The video starts off with a twerp laughing at the band. One of the band members gets up, the guy stops laughing in fear and then gets a good ol' slap (with a sound like that it sounds like he might've broke his jaw). The grievance is seen wandering about with a bag over his head in the film and strapped on a chair too, as the band play away (and smash tub lights too). Nevertheless, the video captures the band perfectly, as well as the zombie-like audience who can be seen waving their arms around in the air. Like the wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube men.
Then there's nothing better than finishing the song with the same opening guitar riffs that make our heads nod. The band has a set of Western influences, like American screamo band Bullet For My Valentine, Alter Bridge, Killswitch Engage and the renowned metal band Metallica. The musical styles like that of Killswitch Engage is one that definitely oozes out of this song "Pen-Chor". But even though the band has its influences, the great thing about this band is that they don't really try to be too much. They stick with their musical styles and combine their influences amongst eachother to make heavy numbers. As they say on Facebook… "Putting 300 bpm triplets with screamo's and shit doesn't mean you're badass. That’s just ridiculous. Maybe that’s what differentiates us from… the rest." The band may call itself DissBelief… but most of us have gained a strong belief about the great future of this band. DissBelief – Pen-Chor (KM Single Review) is a post from: Koolmuzone  |

Some people say it's good to step out of your comfort zone once in a while. After listening to 
Before their official release of "
Musically, "Pen-Chor" is an addictive heavy track. The opening guitar riffs are distorted and heavy, perfect for those who are eager for a whiplash. Vocalist Sumair Saeed brings his voice into the light, showing off a variety of vocal abilities, to the soft 'Hmm's and the growling 'ARRRGHHH's. The song changes pace at the bridge, and gets slower, but the melody is still powerful. As the music builds up, we also hear an aggressive rap, which adds to the musical diversity the band is capable of.| You are subscribed to email updates from Koolmuzone To stop receiving these emails, you may unsubscribe now. | Email delivery powered by Google |
