Posted August 8, 200717 yr New cover of old classic Bollywood song: Y9_Dk_F98cU It's out on Monday 13th August - the video is doing really well on YouTube at the moment, 80000 views in less than 24 hours. I really like it. Edited August 8, 200717 yr by Oral Fixation
August 24, 200717 yr its a cover? mind you i know f all about bollywood! sound VERY 1976/7 euro disco, abit of space (magic fly) in there, a bit of andrea true connection, she sounds like noosha fox speeded up... (as in foxx mid 70's pop group). not sure wether i like it or not... i think it might grate on me after a while as i wasnt a fan of euro disco in the 70's and im not really now.
August 24, 200717 yr This is just cheesy old "Disco" c**p tbh.... Another symptom of everything that is wrong with today's current Dance music scene.... Hard to believe this was a musical form/movement which prided itself on its whole "anti-nostalgia" stance, now it's just ripping off Disco beats and old Bollywood movies for its "inspiration".... If you guys want to hear some real Eastern flavour in Dance, I direct you all to Transglobal Underground and Loop Guru, even Basement Jaxx have done this sort of thing better....
August 24, 200717 yr This is hardly dance tbh. :lol: I do like it though. :D eh?...its pure 100% disco, isnt disco 'dance'?
August 24, 200717 yr There is already a thread on this, in the Culture Box. This is in no way, DANCE :blink: Its a Bollywood/Baile Funk. Every single song of hers is totally different, this is the only Bollywood esque she has.

Every single song of hers is totally different, this is the only Bollywood esque she has. duno what "bollywood/baile funk" is, never heard that term before, all i know is that in its production it is disco, which i suppose was the forerunner to 'dance'... it was the dance of the 70's.. this track could have been released in '76, its straight out of europe c '76.
August 24, 200717 yr Author The song's from a movie called "Disco Dancer", so it's both DISCO and DANCE. ;)
August 24, 200717 yr http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baile_funk That explains Baile Funk. It is quite Dancy music, but usually has World/Cultural influences.
August 25, 200717 yr http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baile_funk That explains Baile Funk. It is quite Dancy music, but usually has World/Cultural influences. i see, thanks :) as it says, its related to 70's funk. im not sure where the boundaries between 'funk' and 'disco' lie. this track though has very strong overtones of mid 70's disco . the beat, the synthetic strings, sounds like 'sunny' (boney m), 'get up and boogie' (silver convention) or even abit of 'magic fly' (space)
August 25, 200717 yr Erm, I actually quite like this! It's so delicously, urm, corney? Isn't this just basically Boney M, but with a bit of Bollywood thrown in the mix and it's considered cool? Edited August 25, 200717 yr by ScottyEm
August 25, 200717 yr Isn't this just basically Boney M, but with a bit of Bollywood thrown in the mix and it's considered cool? This song maybe, it's not much like the rest of her material though :lol:
August 25, 200717 yr I'm sort-of aware who MIA is, I did hear one of her tracks from a couple of years ago... but I thought it was absolutely awful!
August 25, 200717 yr I'm sort-of aware who MIA is, I did hear one of her tracks from a couple of years ago... but I thought it was absolutely awful! That would be Galang. :lol: It's a love/hate song. To some it's just a racket, and even though I do like it, I can see their point if they're not into that sort of music. :heehee: And Jimmy still isn't what I would call dance... but then I wasn't around in the 70s so I'm not all too familiar with a majority of disco-dance songs from that era.
August 25, 200717 yr 'dance' didnt exist in the 70's, dance music was 'disco'. disco was the first music genre that was specific and exclusive to dance too.
