Breaking the rule was Magnasound Records. Magnasound in 1998 became the torch bearer for the best pop stars to get staged. Magnasound ignited the fire that beaten into gold the bands like Euphoria, Indian Ocean, Silk Route. Following the Magnasound era came East India Company and The Raghu Dixit Project.
So beginning with the era of Magnasound. Magnasound came as a savior when Indian Movies were coming up with pathetic music. This created a vacuum for 'Made in India' by Alisha Chinoy, 'Deewane' by Shweta Shetty, Daler Mehandi, and Baba Sehgal.
However, some went much farther than a mere album. Bands became a new fad in the industry. The first to become 'successful' was Euphoria. Music of Euphoria turned out to be the unique blend of Indian traditional and American pop music. Euphoria rocked the charts with 'Re Dhoom' and then there was a queue. Mohit Chouhan, who is now better known for Rockstar, was launched along with the band 'Silk Route' with their memorabilia of song Dooba Dooba. While Euphoria has come up with back-to-back albums and is still intact, many bands like their Hollywood counterparts, disintegrated. One more to stay was 'Indian Ocean' with their best Bandeh. The Indian Ocean has also created hit music for movie 'Massan'
The fervor for pop band music was now high. Later emerged from the portmanteau of Indian folk with Western instruments, the East India Company. Moreover, this not just gave its lead singer, Papon, a space in Indian movie music, songs of the band are being bought by production houses at hand.
So came the era of MTV Coke Studio. After being the launch pad for Viva and the Band of Boys through their reality show, MTV now invested in Indian edition of its world famous show.
MTV Coke Studio and Unplugged brought stars of Indipop at one platform. Right from Bollywood Music pop stars like KK to fusion singer Raghu Dixit.
'The Raghu Dixit Project' brought the best possible music with instruments like Sitar and flute still making you wanting to shake a leg.
This scenario of alternate Indian music is though now widely accepted, especially due to upcoming of YouTube and TV channel MTV Indies, but Indian music lovers should once give an ear to this. This is something you are really missing of you haven't listened to it yet.
The Taste Of Music
India is a nation gifted with diverse culture. The diversity also reflects in the music and language each region and faction enjoys. Despite being so rich in music, the commercial market of music was majorly dominated by the Bollywood Music or international artists.
It might be very easy for us to recognize a third-grade band from the US but tough to get the songs from the best Indian bands. The reason peculiarly has been the lack of promotion from the industry itself, which chose to resist the change and promote only the tracks that find the place in the movies. This also led to subsequent ignorance of the world's largest music frenzy crowd from their very own 'Pop music' to which they always sought for, but beyond the borders.
