I have been quite annoyed by the 90s ( plus / minus 10yrs around it) hits getting badly remixed and being released. These songs carry many good memories which were backed by genuine performances and great music. It was the time when audio tapes / cassettes ruled the music scene. We used to wait for music launches, buy cassettes within first few days of release and had a great time overall. Indian pop scene developed as an alternative to bollywood and many good artists had their launches during this time.
I'm seeing a trend of horribly bad remixes of 90s numbers which are nauseating to listen on FM etc. Many a times they are interlaced with indecent Hindi rap to add a so called happening trend, which makes things even worse. Like Demonetisation to a limping economy, Badshah is to bollywood music in my opinion. Be it a remixed song from movie Tezaab or Ishq, they just leave a bitter taste in your ears, which you can't withstand without complaining. Yes 'you don't like you don't listen ' will be an appropriate response I followed all these years, but they crop up as options on searching on streaming services and passive listening via FM etc, which alters your relation to the particular song. In short, its becoming unbearable day by day. I know I might be sounding too emotional, but music is all about emotions.
Though listeners Reject it bollywood is pushing its creative bankruptcy to newer depths in this form which is pretty disheartening.
Can we file a PIL to stop it? Is it even permissible in the court of law?
I'd love to hear other FMs views on this. Mods can close the thread if its violating any forum rules.
