Chaar Din Ki Chandni, Rascals - Music Review

Chaar Din Ki Chandni (2012)
Music: Sandesh Shandilya, RDB, Shiv Hari, Abhishek Ray

Overall the album feels like the music directors' sole purpose was to resurrect the popular tunes of the past and do some slick modern mixing. The result is only as much. The album has a feel like a dance mix. Hard to give props to this one.

Brownie points:
  • Chandni O Meri Chandni - For those longing for the good old corny 90s, this is a perfect track. A straight-up reprisal of the 1989 Chandni title track with modern synthesizers sprinkled here and there. Pleasant.
  • DJ Play That Song - A foot tapping for the parties and disco floors. The song by itself is very commonplace otherwise.

Rascals (2011)
Music: Vishal-Shekhar

An interestingly funny album from Vishal-Shekhar. Why interestingly? These kind of albums has always been the mainstay of Sajid-Wajid or sometimes Pritam. Owing to the genre of the movie, the songs are all light in mood, frivolously entertaining. They will entertain you while on your speakers, but will flash out of memory in no time. Vishal-Shekhar get redemption points for creating something out of their way all the way while being goofy.

The top songs in this respect are:
1. Shake It Saiyyan (Hip Hop Mix) -
2. Shake It Saiyyan -
Highly recommend for the dance floor right out of the box and a good mix
3. Pardaah Nasheen - A Neeraj Shridhar presentation
4. Rascals (Dance Mix) -
5. Rascals - 
Just for fun and laughter. The mix is also good and fast paced.
