RIP Jaswant Randhawa

Yesterday I was given the shocking news of the passing of one of our lead vocalists, and good friend, Jaswant Randhawa. Its tough for me  to put in words what an inspiration he has been to myself and Harvi. He will be deeply missed by us all. Our prayers and support are with his family and loved ones. RIP.

Ustad Lal Singh Bhatti & Folk Band @Apna Virsa Bhangra Night 2009

Ustad Lal Singh Ji Bhatti, World Famous Dholi/Singer/Teacher, Live on stage with Band giving a true Folk Geet Lok Saaz Boliyan and Tappe performance… This performance brings to light many folk instruments, Sarangi, Tumbi, Algozey, Dhad, Chimta… of the Punjabi Culture, some of which we are loosing touch with in todays society.

A great event put together by the Apna Virsa Bhangra Team. For more information about Apna Virsa Bhangra, log on to www.apnavirsa.org . Enjoy the Video

Miss Pooja and Rishi Rich

Yo, this tune is sick. Im loving the video, Miss Pooja teaming up with Rishi Rich and looking a bit less desi. Not the typical Pooja bhangra track, has more of a pop/hip hop feel too it.

Real DJs dont use a laptop!?!?! Well…

Whats up folks,

So I got a call from a prospect a few weeks ago who needed Dj services. He said he checked out a few Djs already and was disappointed because they did all of their mixing off of laptops rather than using CDJs or Turntables. His argument was that if a DJ is charging me top dollar, he better be mixing live, not just letting some program do it for him. I decided to educate him about programs like Serato Scratch Live, which bhangra djs, and majority of DJs all over are using, which allows them to control their MP3s and music files on their computer with their Turntables and CDJs. Its a simple hardware and software set up that makes this possible. I gave him a demo and also went with him to check out a few of the DJs that he had seen already. 2 of the Djs were using Serato Scratch Live.

This experience made me realize that even though its the new wave in the DJ world to use these types of programs, most clients aren’t aware of what exactly systems like Serato Scratch Live are.  DJs who play premixed cds or run completed mixes through their laptops are frowned upon, however, most real DJs are still mixing live, just replacing their crates and cd cases with a laptops and hard drives.

RIP Kaka Bhaniawala

On April 12th 2009, the bhangra industry suffered a devastating loss. The untimely death of singer “Santokh Singh Rathor” aka Kaka Bhaniawala has shocked the world. Kaka suffered from a disease caused Peelia (jaundice). Kaka Bhaniawala was known for some of the greatest hits in bhangra, such as Daru Pee Ke, Jawani featuring Dj H, Sanewal Chowk with Truskool, and his earlier work with Tigerstyle such as Nachna Onda Naye and my favorite jam Shad ti Aashquie. Bol Punjab De would like to send out deepest condolences to the family, friends, as well as the fans who suffer from this loss. God Bless.
