Song of the week- #8 "Pareshaan" by Amit Trivedi


It’s after quite some time that I thought I should write about a song. Which is why, I am back. And this time with the first bollywood track on this blog. Yes! This composition is from the genius Amit Trivedi. It’s called Pareshaan from the movie Ishaqzaade. Amit Trivedi has been composing some awesome stuff since Dev D and I, personally, love his music because it is signature to him.
Pareshaan is amazingly sung by Shalmali Kholgade who is a newcomer at least to Bollywood. The track begins with beautiful plucking of strings and Shalmali’s voice blending in to create a great start. Amit Trivedi has used the Harmonium and the Bass guitar as a combination to give the song a traditional yet a rock touch. The crash ride used while playing the drums seems to be a perfect background for the Harmonium solos. I believe, Darshan Doshi has been the drummer for Amit Trivedi on this album and he is one of the best drummers in the industry as can be seen from his performances at Coke Studio India and MTV Unplugged.
If you find this music enjoyable, make sure to check out the new ‘dub step’ style incorporated with his song Aafaton Ke Parinde from the same album. Although, Amit Trivedi’s music might seem a bit repetitive with the music in his consecutive albums, I think it’s his original style and that’s what makes him good. I hope we get some more rocking music soon in the future from Amit Trivedi! J Keep Rocking!! \m/
