Sumon, Anila and Fuad – Three High Caliber Artists, One Musical Masterpiece

Posted in Media with tags , , on February 14, 2008 by Saquib

Little needs to be said about the most powerful musician in the history of Bangladeshi music – Sumon bhai. He is a legend, with every single creation turned into gold. It doesn’t matter what numbers say about his record of sales, but music (in terms of perfect blend of creativity and emotions) everything that came from this artist is beyond doubt pioneering work. From Aurthohin till today, I find his works new and old, powerful and creative. You never get bored, you never get to say “Same old”.

Anila is the second Elita for Bangladesh, early in her career, she has no problem proving her potential. Amazing vocal calibration, especially in beautiful mid to high ranges of her voice: you get relaxed, purified and emotional. Just listen to Anila and Sumon in the track “Shopnogulo Tomar Moto” and “Ghum Pariye Diyo”, you’d be left speechless. This is what our country needs, wow, I didn’t know such artists evolve more than once, but they just do. Put that with Fuad, a mastermind of music mixing, truly fancy and trendy stuff, his stuffs always sounds fresh – just look what he did with this album… this is getting clichéd, but it is “amazing”.

True artists, people who break the barrier of tradition and redefine a new milestone. This album doesn’t stay with the leading edge of Bangladeshi music industry, but leads the edge itself. Worth buying? 150% Yes! tremendous achievement, excellent in terms of any comparison, I’m proud that my country, too makes music that defies the very best in the International industry. If I had the money, I would take these people abroad for performance and go global – this only proves that soulful artists will always lead the way. Thanks to everyone who made it happen, it means so much for people who still have taste and time for “quality” music. TWO THUMBS UP!
