Ishq Bector – Looping in the Wealth

What I like about that guy (apart this 2 good songs) is that he represents what is, in my opinion, the future of music in the years to come: a great mix, a perfect blending, of different local sounds into one production that could be appealling to both sides. Lyrics aren’t super interesting, but we’re talking about pop music here, not crunk or leftfield. On the other hand, I very much like the beats on this 2 songs. The other point that makes him a great symbol is that Ishq was actually born in Winnipeg, Canada and found success in India. He’s representing how music and immigration are building bridges between culture in a very concrete and creative way. The fact that I write about him in Montreal, not because I heard of him through Canadians network (media, word of mouth, etc.), but just because I found his stuff randomly, is also a great addition to the loop.

Ishq Bector ft Shakti Kapoor, Hrishitaa Bhatt & Pratichee – Dakku Daddy

Ce que j’aime à propos d’Ishq Bector (à part ces deux bonnes chansons) c’est qu’il représente, à mon avis, le futur de la musique dans les années à venir: un bon mélange, une parfaite union, de différents sons locaux dans une production qui peut séduire des deux cotés. Les paroles sont pas super intéressantes, mais on parle de musique pop ici, pas de crunk ou de hip-hop barré. En même temps, j’aime beaucoup les beats sur ces 2 morceaux. L’autre point qui fait de Ishq un bon symbole, c’est qu’il est né à Winnipeg, Canada, et qu’il connait un grand succès en Inde. Cela montre très concrètement et de façon créative, comment l’immigration et la musique permettent de créer des ponts entre les cultures. Le fait que j’écris à son propos, ici à Montréal non pas parce que j’ai entendu parler de lui par divers réseaux canadiens, mais parce que j’ai trouvé son travail par hasard, est aussi une bon ajout à la boucle internationale.

Ni Fu Ni Fa video

One of our favorite song of 2007 got his video ! Apparently they wanted a video treatment à la Cité de Dieu.

Seems like ‘Ni Fu Ni Fa’ it’s the next single from Tego‘s last album El Abayarde Contra-Ataca and it would be great if it pops up in the chart

De Colombia – Chocquib Town

Merci à Benoit de nous avoir indiqué le chemin vers Chocquib Town

Excellent morceau cela va sans dire, muy lindo. On remarquera dans le pont une référence au Ghana (du moins il me semble) ce qui fait écho au dernier post de /Rupture. On remarquera le shout out fait à Sidestepper dans la section lien. On se souvient de leur, lui aussi excellent, Mas Papaya, téléchargeable sur leur myspace.

Hope you’ll appreciate this great track by, apparently one of the best hip-hop band in Colombia these days. Note a reference to Ghana in the bridge (sound like it) which leads us to /Rupture last post. In the link section of their website, you’ll find a mention of Sidestepper from whom you might remember that other excellent track, Mas Papaya, downloadable on their myspace.

You’ll be able to buy the track, Somos Pacificos, on this compilation: Nueva Colombia
