Tracks list

Bollywood rarities handpicked and remastered. Featuring rare, overlooked or
not-previously-on-vinyl music from Bappi Lahiri, R. D. Burman, Ilaiyaraaja,
Kalyanji-Anandji, Anand Milind, Raamlaxman and Kirti Anuraag released between
1982 and 1986. Mastered for and cut to vinyl by multi Grammy-nominated Frank
Merritt at his mastering studio The Carvery. Naya Beat is incredibly proud to
present the first in our series of ‘Awaaz’ (‘sound’ in
Hindi) archival projects focused on uncovering the sounds of 1980s Bollywood
Original Soundtrack Recordings (OSTs). Series 1 focuses exclusively on the
musical output of CBS Gramophone Records & Tapes (India) Ltd. Active during
India’s peak disco era – a time when synthesisers and drum
machines became a mainstay in Indian popular music – CBS India became a
home for established composers to be experimental, up-and-coming composers to
get their start, B-movie soundtracks, and straight-to-VHS releases. Expertly
curated by Naya Beat co-founders Turbotito and Ragz, who were given
unprecedented access to the original label archives, this compilation is not
just a collection of four-to-the-floor Bollywood disco (although there are
plenty of those). ‘Awaaz’ is designed to take listeners on a
musical journey that includes everything from leftfield electronic and mood
music to outrageous proto house. Be it classic and hard to find cuts like
Ilaiyaraaja's "Aye Zindagi Gale Lagaa Le" and “Mere Jaisi Mehbooba”
(Bappi Lahiri’s Hindi remake of Herbie Hancock's “Rockit”),
or the instrumental mood music of Kirti Anuraag’s VHS movie soundtracks,
to the proto house of Raamlaxman’s “Dil Gadbad Jhala” and
Kalyanji-Anandji’s “Aage Bhi Dushman,” or the synth and
guitar drenched breakdance madness of R. D. Burman’s “Dekho Idhar
Jano Jigar,” the music on this compilation captures the output of a label
that was unique as it was unconventional. An homage to the genre, every detail
in this stunning release has been lovingly crafted. From the laminate cover and
incredible foldout to the collage design and typeface, there are countless
authentic details and nods to Bollywood releases of the era. As much of the
album has been made in India as is possible. The sleeves have been handmade in
New Delhi. The liner notes have been compiled by music archivist Nishant Mittal
(aka Digging In India).
