[mantisazure]

[Alusnovalotus]

[lllshreelll]

@Alusnovalotus o mere jan-e-jaan (oh my love) aakhon se dur na ho (don't go away from my eyes) in short, dont go.

[cykool78]

back in the 90s took a shit load of acid put the lava lamp on and this cd and traveled for 9 hours non stop best trip i ever had ,,,peace out one love

[OrpheusIsThe1]

Hi thank you very much for getting back to me. I love the video so much I dragged my wife in t see it. From what you wrote I assume you filmed using NTSC rather than PAL which is what I use. What editing program did you use? After a bit of trial and error I have ended up using Final Cut, the main reason for that was because I found that Mac was more stable than my PC. Once again thank you. Peace and love to you and yours.

[neversaynevercomm]

@OrpheusIsThe1 Thanks for responding! This project was a labor of love. We shot 200ft of 16mm on a Bolex, and yes, in NTSC (I have produced a feature film in PAL DV - we shot pal so when it converts to film, no frames are "lost" like in the NTSC film conversion. We made it on a little iMac - the one that looks like hald an eggshell on the desk with a monitor coming up from it) My editing style really cant be done professionally with the new FinalCut X,

[neversaynevercomm]

@OrpheusIsThe1 Thank you for sharing this with your family. I have a channel on youtube "neversaynevercomm" It has a few projects I directed (in the Director's Reel Playlist) as well as several music vids and commercials I produced for other directors ((in the Producer's's Reel Playlist) send me a private message and I'll link you to my vimeo page, which has the feature film etc Peace brotha!

Because of Talvin and Tabla Beat Science the percussionist in me aches for a Tabla.

[neversaynevercomm]

@FromThanatosToSol You should see when he turns the tabla beats into midi signals with special pick-up mics... worth a google

Nostalgia!

[sandhya2501]

thanks i was waiting for sum 1 to upload this v

[MusicCue]

Love, love this track.

Was looking for it when i came across AKSELECTS TALVIN SINGH/ANOKHA SPOTSMEU on You Tube-it's the visuals that were created for Anoka club, rembering seeing them most Monday Nights.

Only thing is: it suggests the Anokha Album is all Talvin-and I love Talvin's music BUT the Anokha Album is A COMPILATION Album & features tracks & Artists that MADE ANOKHA along side Talvin.

This Track & State Of Bengal IC408 were the defining tracks of a movement.

Both great artists

[bevlian89]

[tavutube]

Awesome Fusion Track

[TheProteuss]

omg I found it wicked !!! cool tune :)

[aukseklis]

I have loved Talvin's music since I first heard the call of his prajna.

[maharajaRS]

there isn't any official videos for T Singhexcept for this one. Anyone got OK or the beat goes on?

[nancyl2]

Cannot believe it is a year since I last had this magnificent piece sent my way by a true Angel gifted from afar. Hauntingly beautiful chilling the core of my soul with beauty. The language and the beat reach within reactivating my DNA.. Lovingness pours from my Soul. <3 ;-)

[dhatudharma]

om maitri maitreya mahakarunaye!

[zabergan281]

I like the end how the women walk around the circle and it does the time flash that wasnt on the MTV amp show all those years ago. Why did they cut the end?

[TheNocebo]

good like..



[jrjupton]

lovely voice not my usual fair... wow

[illsamu]

thanks!

[Bassoua]

i fall in love every time i hear this track....

[maharajaRS]

More to the point... what happened to Talvin Singh. He went more undergrond than Prince!

[MusicCue]

Amar, voice of an angel. What Happened to her? Saw her perform this with Talvin Singh at the Anokha Club nites. I remember the vibe was out there. They were brill. Talvin use to do some fierce Tabla Solo's. Man, no ones doing nothing good anymore. Not like that anyway. they had everyone pass through their doors. I happened to be there when tricky suddenly got up on the mic & sang. Think he was mixing it up with State Of Bengal. Ok, I gotta go hear the rest of tracks from the comp now!

[maharajaRS]

She now has solo album with Timbaland and crew. not bad. obviously commercial RnB.

[NoorTara]

love it too...thank you for sharing:)

[deputees]

thank you, i love it

[ricardo2323]

a beautiful tune...

[thefloorhasgone]

i got that rocking cd! one of the best Cds i have ever heard!

brings back memories of Bush doofs in the late 90s in NSW, australia.

[uzemljenje1]

@thefloorhasgone if u love realy magnificent music u most heard group ANTIQUE BEATS,Best music on the World

[caeseroct0]

1) What does " stop seeing the drunken kitty" mean?

2) What do the words to this song mean? I should really know this since I'm Indian but uhh...I don't.

[BlankDVD]

@caeseroct0

Oh mere Jaan-e-Jaan = Oh Love of my life

Akho seh door na ho = "don't leave sight of my eyes (or don't leave me)"

Uter Jaye ga = "It will wear off" (personally i never was a fan of this line in this track, to me it never sounded right, i think it was just added as filler)

great track brings back memories.

[Alusnovalotus]

I love this sing!!! it was on an episode of Daria!

[Glivity]

[YouSeriesofTubes]

This was on Anokha - Soundz of the Asian Underground... Album of the year back then.... oh the good old days!

BJ

[Gamerfreakus]

This is off from that movie Replacement Killers with Mira Sorvino and Chow Yun-Fat! That was an AWESOME MOVIE!

[idealmack]

I remember this video from MTV Amp. Awesome track. i recorded it for my archive too.

T-Mac

[nancyl2]

This is so beautiful, I learned about Raga' and the sound used in composing such a work of art, Being American, well It really is very difficult to follow the difficult progressions, But it is a work out for the voice, in my voice healing I have reached notes way out of my range, Relaxing I say allowed this to be done.  Love How music that reachs the heart so much is composed, NO wonder it speaks to your soul like this fantastic example of a special gift to the people. Thanks to My Dear Friend!

[josealfarolopez]

Excellent track, amazing video ! Thank you, uploader

[Letrushka]

Thank you

[neversaynevercomm]

I produced and directed this video. Talvin was amazing to work with. Thanks for uploading it.

[Harpo80]

I can't believe it

[babamaal]

@neversaynevercomm lol shakal dekhi he apni? tu karega aisa shaandaar video direct. :))

[CORC1300]

@neversaynevercomm beautiful work, love the video, what year was this released?

[OrpheusIsThe1]

@neversaynevercomm What intrigues me more than your production and direction is who was the guy that edited this video because that's where the real artistry of it comes into it's own. Without such a good editor I think this wouldn't have been anywhere near as good

[neversaynevercomm]

@OrpheusIsThe1 Its a long explanation about how we made this. The idea was to make the video like he makes electronica or when he DJs. We wanted to only shoot twenty minutes of film, like a hook or sample in the song. Then we reshot oit through blurry glass, with the same time code in minutes, seconds and frames, but starting in hour 2. So when you put both video trackes under each other, they have the same time code from minutes to frames, but each layer gets its own new "hour"

[neversaynevercomm]

@OrpheusIsThe1 Reply Part 2. So then you have just a few minutes of raw film which has been reshot into different looking layers. Then comes the fun part..... It's really like djing or re-mixing between the layers of the same footage looking different in each layer. Then it's easy to edit even down to a 1/30th of a second throughout the whole vid without blowing up the editing computer. Most movies have less than 1500 edits in them. This video had 3400 technically...

[Ferankrum]

fantastic
