Ud Ud Jaye

Surprise! Himesh changes his sound for a change and breaks away from that typical bollywood music director.

He tries his hands at Sufi Rwak and succeds big time.

There is n build up in this song whose beats arrive with an immediate bang and make a solid impact from the word go.

Having said that, Himesh deliberately builds up this song in the latter stages to come only to give SIKE and get the ADRENALINE flowing.

Kailash Kher croons with all his might the opening lines that take some time to get used to (uud uud uud).

Lets talk about effect. The lines, tere naal dil da parinda tere naal dil da, followed by stunning keyboard tune (up down) at 0.39, uud uud uud jaaaye aye aye, the instruments stop, the sike slowly builds and the Himesh just hits it from 0.48 onwards, after which the foot tapping sufi beats kick in.

The quick set of drum beats used to tremendously build up the song and that give KICK (first set lighter and second set heavier) from 0.47 to 0.50, 1.20 to 1.22, 2.42 to 2.45 & 4.10 to 4.12 were similarly used from 0.48 to 0.51, 1.08 to 1.10, 2.54 to 2.56 & 4.46 to 4.48 in MAINE CHUN LIYA from DIL MANGE MORE.

At 0.11, the keyboard plays just once, giving sahi sur.

The clap effect from 0.25 to 0.44 is enhances the build up.

From 1.20 onwards, the listener has got hold of the sike and what HR wants him/her to experience.

What are punjabi styled beats doing in a sufi number! Well, that's what happens between 1.40 and 1.45

Stanzas are just simply RWAKING!

1st stanza

From 1.50 onwards, Himesh exploits kailash's middle-lower octave with lines, deewana deewana deewana me tera deewana hoon, jaana jaana oh meri jaana, me tera nishana hoon. The instrument giving sur from 1.58 to 2.00 is awesome.

From 2.10 onwards, sunithi joins in with her feel good vocals.

At 2.14, khwabon me hai YAADON (emphasis, awesome) me hai

At 2.33, tere naal chahat ka (keyboard hits once to give sur).

Again sike building part from 2.42 to 2.45

Between 1st & 2nd stanza, the groovy tune piece is great followed by female chorus.

2nd stanza

Kailesh kher casts magic over listeners with his terrific vocals.

The lines, rangh de mujhe rangh de tere PYAAR (awesome) ke rangh se. The instrument (keys hitting many times around 6 quick times) from 3.26 to 3.27 is awesome.

The lines, ye PREM (awesome) kahani ki. The instrument (keys hitting many times around 6 quick times) from 3.36 to 3.37 is awesome.

Sunithi takes over with her feel good vocals, GAVARAH, SAHARAH is great tune by Himesh.

The lines, tere naal kadamo ki aahat * 2 mudh * 4 jaaye, special mention for LYRICS.

Song finishes on high note espcially from 4.45 onwards when female chorus croons kahi chain na aaye, followed by what kailesh does best on high pitch.

Highlights of this song:

1. Kailash Kher's sufiana anzad vocals tailor made for this song.

2. Sunidhi chauhans feelgood vocals.

3. The sike Himesh builds with the right timing and build of instruments and then just hits it.

4. The SUR given by instrument keys in antaras.

5. The RWAKING foot tapping peppy underling sufi beats.

Once the listeners get over the "uud uud uud uud jaaye" part and gives this song a second chance, they will get hooked on.

This is Himesh's BEST Sufi-Rwak 'composed only' song in pre-ABA era.

Listen this song if you are looking for some sike and beats, that will not make you dance but set your foot tapping for a mood change.

Maula

Himesh experiments with his sound big time and tries a new genre.

It is a shift of sound domain.

The song begins with raga tune in unplugged mode and the phone line tone plays intermittently.

The 3 heavy drum beats from 0.18 to 0.19 give the required kick start and the raga tune plays along with a heavy techno sound bazz sound.

Kavita Seth sings with haunting husky vocals and the tune sur pattern in her lines is effective.

Her lines HUSN IS KO * 2 from 0.55 to 1.02, and MAAAUULLLLAAA (prolonged quick twist, AWESOME) from 1.09 to 1.11 are sung with classical touch.

Between mukhda and 1st stanza, groovy haunting male vocal play along with techno bazz sound followed by raga tune pattern.

1st stanza

Kavitha continues to sing with a classical touch.

Once again, her line MAAAUUULLLAA (prolonged quick classical twist) from 2.54 to 2.56 and it is great composition pattern.

From 2.57 onwards, she sings in unplugged mode with background techno bazz sound that gets gradually heavier and from 3.05 to 3.14 it is OFF-DA-HOOK. Just hear it roar!

Kavitha's classical croons from 3.17 to 3.31 are penetrating with a desperation sadistic touch.

2nd stanza

Kavitha continues to sing with a classical touch and the techno sound makes its presence felt.

Once again, her line MAAAUUULLLAA (prolonged quick classical twist) from 4.13 to 4.15 and it is great composition pattern.

The techno sound followed by phone line tone pattern followed by raga tune and haunting computerized vocals from 4.16 to 4.48 once again build up the song and the listener wonders if the song is actually going to get over.

But the techno bazz sound kicks in again from 4.50 along with groovy haunting male vocals and Kavitha seth's voice with a haunting echo effect.

Highlights of this song:

1. Kavitha seth's haunting husky vocals and groovy haunting male vocals.

2. The tune pattern in mukhda lines, raga tune, heavy drum beat effect, phone line tone and techno bazz sound.

3. The BEST parts of this song are MAAAUUULLLAA (prolonged quick classical twist), off-da-hook gradually roaring techno bazz sound from 3.05 to 3.14 and the repetitive pattern of techno sound followed by phone line tone from 4.16 to 4.48 that somewhat deceives the listener.

This is the 1st song of Himesh in the extreme EAST WEST COMBO FUZION and it truly shows a new facet of Himesh – the composer as a pleasant surprise.
