Fuzon
Fuzn began in 2001. Shallum Asher Xavier and Imran Momina were the founding members, who decided to put their heads together as they realised that their musical ideas and tastes were identical. They developed several tracks together, but lacked a quality vocalist.
Meanwhile, Shafqat Amanat Ali who had been singing for a few years had happened to drop into Immo's recording studio for an assignment. Shafqat's vocals so impressed the duo, that Shafqat was signed up with Shallum and Immu to form the band "Fuzon".
Shafqat Amanat Ali
The vocalist Shafquat has a strong foundation in eastern classical music. But during his college days, he was exposed to rock, jazz and blues, and ended up fusing these genres and singing them. Most of the songs in the album reflect this unique ability of his to blend the tunes of the sub-continent in a Western style of rendering. Gifted beyond belief Shafqat Amanat Ali has redefined the possibilities of interpreting and presenting eastern classical music. A singer par excellence, he has vocals tapping into music's deepest potential. Hailing from the famous "Patiala Gharana", this offspring of the illustrious maestro, Ustad Amanat Ali Khan (late) and younger brother of Asad Amanat Ali Khan (late) possesses immense improvisational skills. His commitment to Fuzon is classical-pop at its dreamiest.
Shafqat's first entry into Bollywood, India's Film Industry, was the song "Mitwa" from the film 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna'.
Shafqat can be heard on the soundtrack of the Nagesh Kukunoor film Dor in the song Yeh Honsla.
Shafqat is also planning to release his first solo album in upcoming months.
Fuzon's songs "Mora Saiyan" and "Tere Bina" are featured in Nagesh Kukunoor's Hyderabad Blues 2
