Missed u soo much the season has ended i hope u react to rest of the season it's an interesting season has mixed reaction ithink its good they r trying diff things also keeping in mind the global trend some people r critical as it has more of visual aspect but i like it they have to try something every season they have to move forward
Wuf reacts can you pls review Karpe the Norwegian band with Patel+Magdi. Their song Barf is based on their migrant parents & upbringing. it's very thought provoking.
Please please pls start watching BTS as well. U guys usually have a good amount of session so I feel like a 1.5X times if u feel it’s quite big but it will get ur guest and ur audience understand why the song is coming from and will make u appreciate the skillset
Honestly, maybe if the channel takes off. The artists are based all over the world, and we try to catch them when they have a moment. The channel remains small and in short, its really doesnt warrant additional quality at the moment. But maybe on the horizon!
@@wufreacts makes sense.. but a word of advice... investing in those gadgets might actually help the channel grow faster... competition is insane on YT
Maybe I'm looking too much into it but the chorus lyrics translate into something like "We know you want to join us, drop the act and come party" and the rap also talks about how we all can be united, come to our party, bring the gift of love. In the end the little girl says I'm singing for you so join us.
Previous episodes of Coke Studio were focused on performance in a stage form, which meant all sort of traditional and modern instruments were on display. Since last episode they have changed the direction to more of story telling platform, it's more poppy and geared towards younger population. I miss that older platform where Pakistani classical, folk music was fused with modern sounds to produce amazing songs, but as an older guy myself, I guess it's time for us to start taking a bit of back seat and let these kids come through.
Answer to your questions:- Places:- Yes multiple places like these in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad. Painting:- Yes painting or colors are an important part of culture, even buses in Pakistan are very decorated with different colors however in this video it seems they are presenting it as a way out bcz a lot of people like to sing or paint whenever they have problems going on in life to divert the attention. String instruments:- I also dont know how many 😜
They have moved from raw sound jamming sessions oriented to more popular cinematic music videos to capture wider international young audience on streaming platforms. It's a commercial move. Do we love the original CS live music sessions? absolutely!, but this is more Gen-Z relevant and that's where the most of the views are gonna come from. Again this is a commercial, business oriented move. Although this is great in its own right, but we will definitely miss the old CS and it's raw and powerful music.
You guys may be in an other tangent here. You need to focus on the essence of human nature. This song is draped with tapestry of maloncony which touches the human soyl when there is deep irreplaceable loss. Loss can be Love, a child, a mother, an animal a place, an era...its all encompassing .
You’re not wrong imho. I think the lament of loss could be generally of a bygone era of train stations used by all Pakistanis, and live music club cultures that brought people and families together. These stories perhaps took place in those places
Another great review and analysis of the song, by you guys. And Wuf, you got it absolutely spot-on about fireflies in reference to the blinking lights. The production supervisor mentions it in the BTS. So, well done.
I do agree with ur opinion as an old die hard cs fan but i think now they r eying more the younger audience who could give them more streams and tiktok videos and there is also a subsequent popularity inc among younger gen of kpop which is mostly about visuals so they now r covering that aspect in cs if u checkout more of pak music scene pop music is now taking its place back i mean we still not there at the golden age of 90 and early 2000 but now is the time although the main prod xulfi has done more rock even alternative rock which gave him the recognition but surprisingly he is doing more pop music in cs he has done good 4 pak music most of the artist today r introduced by him so he has the respect esp among young and upcoming artist the whole team of musician in the last 2 season he has a hand in making their career sorry 4 long para but ur reaction was so good that i couldn't help it already subscribed u
@@wufreacts amazing to hear! I'd recommend a song called Kehdena by Abdul Hannan (singer on O yaara) & Annural Khalid. They produced a masterpiece in my opinion very much R&B/Soul vibes. Love from the UK
PLEEEEASE watch the BTS videos with these. I beg you. As sound and visual artists, I feel like that is your real jam, and it's a shame not to get your takes on the videos that explain how these songs are produced!
We usually try and watch the BTS on our own as its tough to coordinate with artists and their time. And yes, the captions are on as we watch! Thanks for your support though :)
Bro u guys are soing amazing, i think you should also do it for a song “ Mundari by Ustad Naseer on channel Rohail Hyatt, that was the first season of coke studio
you should watch its BTS a.k.a magical journey about this song.. they explain everything also will tell you how many people they had :P.. but do watch that aswell
