Action and reaction, ebb and flow, trial and error, change - this is the rhythm of living.Out of our overconfidence, fear;out of our fear, clearer vision, fresh hope.And out of hope, progress. - Bruce BartonSo I decided to change the blog. Move it to a new home. Make progress.Please visit : The new Senty-musique blog

Did you hear about the latest reality music show in TV town ? Saregamapa (yet again !) In a few dragging weeks, there will be yet another coronation of a "superstar" with all the pomp and show befitting a ... reality music show winner !So what is new this time around? Its not just "Zee saregamapa champion" or "saregamapa mega champion" or "champion of all champions". If the title is anything to

Hamaare baad ab mehfil mein afsaane bayaan honge,Bahaarein humko dhoondengi na jaane hum kahan honge... says the scratchy squeeky rusty oldies of beeta hua kal... rather parson.The ritual of everyday-life has churned out my days, weeks, months, years and all along I have lugged my treasure trove of songs, many in my collection, and some in my memory.However, a few have managed to slip out of

Long overdue for this blog...With my micro-miniscule knowledge and, insignificant to nil experience in classical and ghazal gaayiki, I symbolize chhoti mooh badi baat perfectly whenever I attempt to talk about this pristine genre of music ... especially when I want to take the name of a legend called Mehdi Hassan.Here, I have attempted the most challenging task of picking only a few out of my

MJ is a fine example of a name that is bigger than the man himself.Many say he is the best that ever was or that ever will be, and many others are ready to disagree. But no one can ignore the effect he had on a whole generation, the humongous difference he made to the pop scene of the Universe.I come from the MJ generation and I have watched this phenomenon sweep my time. The mania swept over

Baarish, barsaat, barkha, baadal, badra, ghanghor ghata, rimjhim, saawan ... did I miss anything ??Songs about rain, in rain, of rain, for rain …Naah.. this post is not intended for dudes to drool over drenched damsels, neither is it a roll-call of the “A list” of songs picturized in the rain... Rather, this post is about some bollywood songs that use rain as an excuse to make a sentimental

Where and how do I begin... ? It was so easy for them to reach us because they had the power and mastery of their art to do so. But it is extremely humbling for me to even want to aspire to write a few words, as a small tribute to these awe inspiring legends. A voice that transcends borders, languages and man-made boundaries to embrace the world in the most fundamental way, washing it with waves

This blog needs a kick, a nutritious energy drink like a mug of Boost, a stimulus package to revive the slump in activities, and bring it back to life. So what better way to do it than talk about, cry about, sing about, the most talked about, cried about, sung about, danced about, filmed about, fought about, died about "duh" king of all emotions... LOVE ! As in, wachamacallit... pyar, ishq,

Golden days of Hindi film music... Imagine the challenges, the inconveniences of pretty much everything in daily life, compared to today, lack of technology, limited resources, what about communication ... no cell phones, no computers. And above all, no expensive imported sur-correcting machines ! And what did we get then? A treasury of heart and soul and some melodious music.The more I talk

The recent events in Mumbai are bringing out some strong emotions of agony and anger, hatred and horror … but the weaker

Kya koi nayi baat nazar aati hai hum mein,Aaina humein dekhke hairaan sa kyun hai..Seene mein jalan, aankhon mein toofan sa kyun haiIss sheher mein har shaqs pareshaan sa kyun hai ..This is what we have today.. Chaotic confusion, hurrying life through its time, with careful thought to lengthen it for a reason not known.. Living in denial that its not yet time to meet the moment when tamaam umr

So much goings on the past few days.. From dealing with depressing thoughts of the macabre Mumbai massacre to beating the Sunday sundown blues … How do we combat an enemy that is in the form of a thought process, an ideology, that simply believes in mindless destruction... How do we explain little kids getting trained to grow up and die in their early 20s?? I don’t know if any anti-terrorism
