2007 welcomes the ground breaking release
of Reincarnated the album from Indy Sagu;
this 9 track rollercoaster ride will blow
your socks off.
The very appropriate name signifies the re-birth
of this artist on both a personal and professional
level. The passed few years have been pivotal
to this artist’s development and now, here
he stands prepared to astound his audience
with this more significant release.
The album presents 9 equally amazing and
upbeat tracks; a sure-footed follow up to
the Debut and Indystructable, it showcases
production to a pristine level, the ability
to fuse modern genres of music with the old
and portrays popular forms of music in a way
that is suited to today’s audience. The album
itself an absolute masterpiece, not only encompasses
the personal journey taken by this artist;
it embraces his ability to display refinement
of sound, vast taste, and communicates on
a personal level.
One is pleasantly surprised by the refreshing
lyrical content of the songs, each one so
different yet equal to the one before. It
sees the return of iconic lyricists such as
Bhoota Pardesi, Surjit [Anakhi], Kumar [Heera];
for all of those who were crazy about bhangra
back in the day will be aware that these voices
dominated the music market in truly unique
fashion.
The everlasting impression is one of ‘its
so more-ish’; one cannot help but be overwhelmed
by the sudden urgency to want to re-play the
album allowing the listener to fully grasp
the totality of it.
It is clear from the outset that Sagu has
spent ample time experimenting and exploring
different genres of music. The beats are heavy
and if you enjoy the base line these tracks
are a must have for your collection.
The production performed entirely by the
man himself, his persistence to keep everything
his own makes this album stand out from the
rest. The simplicity of the vocal arrangements,
and melodies work well, neither track feels
as though it should not be there. If there
is one album you should get let this be the
one, you will not be disappointed!
