Ismail Durbar's compositions - Page 3

few movies but great songs....
I like Albela sajan (raag ahilya bilawal) a lot, but many of his songs are good, our badnaseebi he is not getting work.

Omg! I'm surprised that you find ID's compositions repetitive and boring, while actually they are true masterpieces. I love all of them. Alas the younger generation of today have lost the essence of quality music. Sad for ID, nobody is signing him nowadays! Item songs ka zamaana jo hai.

😆😆..CB, can u hear it 😉😆

no yaar. couldnt hear, could only read. ab tumne suna hai toh batao😉😆

ok, let's analyze that. HDDCS and the rest of his stuff is markedly different sounding than what came before. (ditto for ARR, another guy whose "moosic" i cant stand). now if what came before was the golden era kind of melodies and tune, what does that say about the ID kind of music? different?😉😆

Tadap tadap, HDDCS title song, Tera jadoo chal gaya ... ?

how is this stuff better or different from the rest of what we have these days? tadap tadap sounds like some RFK type stuff- isnt there better stuff than that anyway? tera jadoo? that's neither here nor there. no great shakes melody-wise. someone also mentioned kisna. but imo, the better songs of kisna were by ARR, not ID. so dont understand why this guy gets hyped up as such a great MD. dialogues maarta hai, isliye? 😛

maybe, just maybe, the market is smarter and/ or has more of a taste for music than we give it credit for? generally true in other "markets" u now. it's generaly fool's paradise to think we are smarter or somehow know more than the market. if he's not getting jobs, just maybe the market knows something about his music that the rest of the folks dont?😉

I Love Ismail Darbar ji's compositions and I can go on listening to them again and again without getting bored. My fav is. Albela sajan aayo re.. I can go on forever listening to it.

Then Jhoka hawa ka aaj bhi...is another great one.

All songs of HDDCS, are good. Even the devdas songs. Tera jadoo chal gaya is also great. What he has in his songs is substance.

His songs carry melody.His songs are hummable and most important his songs are not superceded by orchestration, shadowing out the singers voice. The lilting melody of albela sajan aayo re...doesn't that give a feeling of peace and calm?

The pathos in jhoka hawa ka aaj bhi...doesn't that reach out and talk about remembering a lost love.

Tadap tadap...is a song most aptly placed in the movie. the guy just lost everything precious, the cry of the soul- the tadap reaches out through the song.

Aankhon ki gustakhiya...is a beautiful romantic song... dholi taaro is very folkish and totally gells with the scene.

Hum dil de chuke sanam...the surrender of feeling, the compromise, is so well portrayed through the song.

That kite song...is so playful. in each one it catches the mood of the moment. Its the voice that reaches out and tell you the story..in my opinion thats what a song should do.I prefer this to synthesised loud background music...

yes yes, i got that. but imo most songs in any movie are fairly apt and set the right tune if you go by those standards. there's nothing spectacular in that list of ID's. in particular, some of the songs even in a non-ID movie like gangster sound better to me. they've got beat, rhythm, mood, melody, lyrics and would beat any ID number hands down. looks like the market agrees with that assessment too but then what do we know?😛😊

The number of melodious songs ID gave in 5-6 movies, some MD could not give that many even after 100 movies.

oh really? and i suppose you could provide a list of those MDs here?😆

Same as Adi, I too think those songs melodious which are hummable... And atleast 7-10 songs composed by ID are hummable.

lol. 😆

not saying that's the case with anyone here, but i wonder how many people in RL find his songs hummable just because they've been told they are.😉 wonder also how many people would have known about this guy before sgmp. if nothing else, all that tamasha seems to have made a legend out of someone with admittedly "7-10 hummable songs".😆

he he eh

very interesting discussion between chastbuster Vs Jadoogar, ID saab is an ace musician with deep understanding of Indian Classical, now even Pt Ravi Shankar's sitarvadan or Ustaad Zakir Hussain's work may fail to impress a person who prefers Preetam or HR over them, this doesn't mean former's work is not great.
