Bisile Music Review

New kids on our block!

Audio Review by Suchitra Preetham

Bisile stands out for its ‘New Gen’ tunes and the credit goes to the music composer duo, Gagan-Hari. The duo has done their every bit to add extra sparkle into the numbers, that includes roping in a convoy of Bollywood turned Sandalwood crooners. While the formula works in two numbers and a remix version; it fails for the remaining five songs and two bits. A bird’s eye view reveals that Bisile has more than the usual quota of numbers (8 songs and 2 bits). It is obvious that Gagan and Hari gel on ideas, but the similarity in different songs makes you wonder if they forgot to compare notes.

Ee Bisileli (Sonu Nigam): Ee Bisileli twirls and winds romantically in the ease of Sonu Nigam’s Sandal-swara. Absolutely melodious, it’s a top score for Gagan and Hari.

Ee Bisileli – Remix: I guess the soft swirl of Ee Bisileli (original) that grows on you, grew on the musical duo as well. Ee Bisileli-remix is just a pitch higher and has a second echoing voice. No complaints though, it’s a number you can hear over and again.

Nannusiru Neene (Kunal Ganjawala, Sunidhi Chauhan): Sounding a little like Ee Bisileli, Kunal Ganjawala and Sunidhi give this song the advantage of voice. A number soaked in romance that rolls out effortlessly as a lovable duet. It’s another scorer for the boys.

Ninninda Nodalende (Hariharan) and Ninninda Kaanadagi (Sandeep Batra): Yet another song duo; both these numbers sound like twins dressed in blue and pink. Lyrics by Pranav; these classical numbers are only different by the voices. The other striking similarity being that they are both boring.

Naa Haadoke (Shaan, Godlove): The ‘new kids’ fuse Snoop Dogg kind of raps into the song. Hearing a ‘Singh is King’ bang in the middle of the song, I am guessing they think we are new to this side of the block.

Ee Bhoomiya Daatuta (Rishikesh Hari, Ramya, Gurupreeth): Hari lends his voice to the bevy of female voices amidst a riot of beats and hey-heys. Ee Bhoomiya Daatuta is a noisy but peppy number.

Kanda Kanasugalu (Chitra KS): Convinced! Like every album, this is the song that is supposed to tear your heart and leave you in tears. Only in this case, Chitra’s not-so-sad voice clogs your ears.

Andakikavala Hesara (Rishikesh Hari) and Idu Kanasa (Sudarshan): Song duo- these bits run little over a minute each and sound a little like each other too.
