Their music is classy, soulful, trendy, zesty and above all innovative and stylish to say the least.There is something abt S-E-L which makes their music unique. 1) Noor-E-Khuda (My Name is khan)...the best song of the year so far IMO 2) Sajda (MNK) 3) Uff teri ada (Karthik calling karthik). ( very very average lyrics tho lol). 4) Mitwa (KANK).

Re: [arr] Re: (non arr) Some song recommendations
I beg to differ about DevD's lyrics. I thought they were deep except the emotional atyachar song. It was just that it was packaged in a different style.

I did love Ismail Darbar first, but then :( Somehow I personally could not like Dev D music much. I am more of a melody and lyrics man and don't get moved by other genre, and poor lyrics are a sure turn off for me. Entire Dev D music seems targeted on today's hip hop generation. Not that Amit Trivedi had been bad in Dev D but I would still keep him in a watch list before deciding whether he is my md or not. My fav is Piyush Misra in Gulal. Anyone knows his forthcoming releases? And What is ID's next? -- Rawat On Tue, Jan 19, 2010 at 10:28 AM, Anil Nair rhythmca...@gmail.com mailto:rhythmca...@gmail.com wrote: More than agree Sreekar.

This is off topic, but if we're talking about Amit Trivedi a bit, here's my opinion: He is talented and has carved out a nice niche for himself. He has great potential to be even more successful in the future. He's very creative and very innovative. But, is he the next ARR? No, not in my opinion. His music is intellectually stimulating, diverse, and crafty, but so far, from what I've heard in Aamir and Dev D, his music does not reach me emotionally much, does not touch me deep inside, does not impress me with overall sound, and lacks the type of ambiance and soul that I most prefer and appreciate in music in general.
