Club Muzik:The making of Recycle?

ReCycle:ReCycle came into existence in November 2006 with a common urge to bring the musical landscapes of 90’s grunge, Alternative and funk flavor to the Imphal music scene.

 

Club Muzik:What do you want to see in a fan, say Recycle fan?

ReCycle:We would love to see in our fan who could connect to the band musically, love for who we are & stay loyal to the journeys ahead.

 

Club Muzik:Your music is a contrary to the current aggressive nature of metal bands in the country. But rightfully we feel that Recycle has made a place of it’s own apart from the various trending bands. Share us how a band can achieve such an honor?

ReCycle:ReCycle is an alternative rock band with a touch of funk element to our sound. We do have a core belief in our band. We stay true to our music with dedication,devotion and action which help us in the long run.

Club Muzik:Every musician has the slightest difference or perfect uniqueness in it’s music no matter how similar they sound like. What is it in Recycle the rest don’t create?

ReCycle:Every band has its own style of music,taste & approach. We do have our kind of music which we can call our own but we can’t comment or compare with the rest and the interpretation is left to the listeners.

 

Club Muzik:How do you differentiate a rock artist like yourself from a Hindustani artist in the local scene?

ReCycle:Hindustani artist are like they are into mainstream culture where as we are part of the sub-culture which is not too mainstream.

 

Club Muzik:Apart from Recycle what all are your favorites in music?

ReCycle:We are all inspired by The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix,RHCP,Incubus,Coldplayjust to name a few & we do love the local acts like The Imphal Talkies,The Dirty Strikes,The Koi.

Club Muzik:In a music making industry the production quality matters a lot to come up with a good and well-crafted sound. Tell us what you would suggest to other musicians in Manipur to come up with quality production?

ReCycle:We would love to suggest a good recording studio along with a sound engineer who can communicate, co-operate and work with the kind of approach your band would like to have and expect him to help technically in the recording process in order to get the right source to maintain quality production. The recording process is what matter and should be the prime focus in order to get the right kind of sound so the source from the guitar amps, microphone positioning & stuffs needs to be check. So, once the recording process is done with proper care you can do the mixing & mastering anywhere depending upon your budget.

 

Club Muzik:How do you write your music and lyrics?

ReCycle:All our music and lyrics comes spontaneously. Sometimes a bass line would come up or a guitar phrase while we are jamming or during rehearsal before a gig and the idea turns into a song. It all comes naturally but it’s not actually plan and sometimes the lyric comes all of a sudden so we just write it down.

 

Club Muzik:How do you maintain your music instruments to keep it in good shape at home or for a liveshow?

ReCycle:Just keep in hard case in case we are going for live show. We do have sentimental value to our instruments so we just take good care and maintain to keep in good way.

 

Club Muzik:What are your expectations while playing at a live gig?

ReCycle:We do expect good quality production like sound, lights and stage from the organizer. We always try to connect new fans while playing at a live gig and we are grateful that most of the gigs we played are paid so far.

 

Club Muzik:Share us the people behind each members of Recycle who made you all into music, like who allsupported or trained you in the beginning?

ReCycle:All of us are self-taught and we didn’t had formal training from early on. We are inspired from our elders from early age to get into music and we thank our elders, families and friends for all their continued support and guidance.

 

Club Muzik:To you what is perfect timing for a band?

ReCycle: We do exist like a family and we are all aware of the highs and the lows of the band so far. We always enjoy the moment of the journey through this band and the perfect timing would be like when we all function like a collective soul or together as one unit.

 

Club Muzik:The busiest person in Manipur is……………………..? (Fill in the blank.)

ReCycle:God knows.!

Canaan Caravan debut album by Obed Zeme

Imphal, 25th May 2013:  An experimental guitar instrumental album called ‘Canaan Caravan’, that crosses different genres from ballad rock to jazzy blues feel, has been released today in the north east. ‘Canaan Caravan’ is the debut album of Obed Zeme who romances with different shades of moods with his guitar. Obed Zeme is from Magulong Village, of Tamei Subdivison of Tamenglong District Manipur, and he is presently based in Delhi.  He is a guitar player, composer, arranger, producer, and a teacher.  His journey in music began at a tender age of eight, when he started playing piano and guitar. The album will be released in Delhi also very soon.

The album ‘Canaan Caravan’ is a tale of life’s journey that began in faith.  It is the guitarist’s rendition of the biblical caravan in the wilderness towards the Promised Land, Canaan. The titles of the tracks analogize significant landmarks in his spiritual passage. He is led by the peaceful Still Waters, but has to also endure the Arrows by Night. There are times when he envies the life on the Other Side of the River and tested his commitment, but deep down there’s a calm assurance that tells him that It is well with his soul.  He longs for Shakina Glory at all times, be it while he sings the Zion Song in adoration of the divine or while creating Origami in leisure.  And it is music, he says, that sustains faith as he continues to travel amidst the curse of Pandora’s Box.

Canaan Caravan-back

Canaan Caravan is not one season’s collection of the artist, rather, was written and compiled over a decade mostly in the early 2000s. True to Obed’s belief the album seeks to connect with the Higher power through music. Along with the larger vision for Peace reflected in his signature track A Cry for Peace, it also includes favorites like Rib of My Frame and Amazing Grace.

Lyrics: by Imon

Give me my rights back..

There's no voice for the common man.
There's no will for the one's in love.
Tied to the throat and pulled (and pushed),
into a life which undefined you

Built on a sling of ease you sway,
breaking my home time and time again.
We are bound by a belief of faith.
Over and Over, we lose again.

I will not be a victim of this Tragedy.
They will try to suppress us down.
we can fight, fight and turn this thing around.
We're all guilty of this deception,

(top it off with an opinion)

Dear heartless fucking bastard,
you robbed me of myself.

Words pouring in, die without a cure,
compensate my blood with your fears, (your fears)

I would love to welcome you to my head,
hope you feel sick, unwanted and fucked

Oh! Conniving heroes, protecting rights,
GIVE ME MY FUCKING RIGHTS MOTHER FUCKERS

You're deprived of answers.
You're deprived of answers.

Your existence holds no meaning to me,
and now as I let this spirt free, I can honestly wave my hand
and bid goodbye to this world!

The lyrics

Verse 1: Big Deal

My mind states very disturbed/
please bear wit me i Wana be sharing these thoughts/
n i know there is no law/
but goddam where is the love?
Feels like mother earth’s heart-broken/
the cut’s so deep its bleedin n open/
all this violence your tv’s provoking/
very ironic that ppl get killed over tv remotes!
“really?”
“see you don’t even know”/
ppl ignorant, they just got their own/
they don’t give a Shit bout the Shit outside their homes/
until they step on Shit,
“Shit! Gross”/
yday was ansh today its Richard/
moro its ur fren, day after its ur sister/
so stand up 4 ur beliefs, don’t just Sit/
if you want it, raise your voice n say”I want justice”/

Verse 2: Shree Sen

Human, losing humanity
Got stuck in the idiotic word TV
Manobikota’ aaj boro song’in / Humanism is dying rotten alone
Look around/ deykho aaj sudhu hing’sa/ Look Around, all you can see is HATE
No one listens/ jibon aaj mith’thay/ No one listens, life is a living LIE
Khotobikhoto pran/ nai tar mul’lo?/ Life is mourning, doesn’t have a value!
Monushot’to nei’/ sob aaj mrito/ Humanity is over, it’s all dead now
Think about it, so many are dying/
Harassment, Racism, Physical Abuse and
Kayray nilo nis’paap pran, jibon dhong’so, / Taking away an innocent life
Kothin ek odh’dhai ai holo sotto? / Fact of life is nothing but stuggle
Nikris’to’tar udahoron, nai richard’o/ Example of brutality, we have lost Richard now
Wa hai’niag’I lait’ray thawa’I khubak’ta Haptuna chat’li ai
– I don’t have words to say, with soul in my
palms I walk (risking my life….)
Don’t have any words/ bak’kohin ami/ I’m left with no words
Bikhip’to kotha niya/ agiya choli/ I move ahead with heavy words.
Boli ai hobay sesh, punora’bri’t’ti’r/ Lets say, we are gonna stop this madness
Come out, lets stop it/ chai bichar noi fakhi!/ We want justice, won’t let it escape

Veerse 3: Zing

lets take a moment to recollect;
lets call our thoughts and redirect:
if you still have a brain, a lil intellect(left)
oh lord, will you ever
resurrect back???

since when did people die of cuts and bruises?
a broken helmet is the proof, murderers loose;
painting the image of a victim with “drug-abuse”;
(got me wondering if ) the media is clean or did they “drug” the “news”?
the government is deaf , the ministers are mute;
so they justify girls bein raped cuz some people think their “skirts” are “LOOSE”??
or is it bout the looks?
for that, im sorry brothers, we aint born to choose;
born light-skinned, chinky-eyed, therefore, abused??
“GUILTY” of being “DIFFERENT” and they (wanna) hang the ACCUSED.
its time we rise above “ASAINS”, “BLACKS” AND “JEWS”..
RICHARD, DANA, ANSH, WE ALL STAND FOR YOU……

meanings…:-

1. “since when did people die of cuts and bruises?”
*(they say richard died due to a minor accident that happened a couple of days before he died)

2. “broken helmet is the proof, murderers loose”
*(they found some scratches, dents on richard’s helmet and now that is “proof” that richard died in the accident)*

3.painting the image of a victim with “drug abuse”-
*(they say richard died due to drug abuse)*

4.” so they justify girls bein raped cuz some people think their “skirts” are “LOOSE”??”
*(they say girls wearing short dresses are inviting rape, sexual harassment intentionally.. they blame the victim, not the criminal..*)
