Coke Studio Season 9| Khaki Banda| Ahmed Jahanzeb & Umair Jaswal

Coke Studio Season 9| Episode 3
Music Directed by Shuja Haider
Produced by Strings

‘Khaki Banda’ is a sufi-rock track without limiting itself within the boundaries or sticking to one musical genre, sound or style. Beautifully crafted lyrics penned by music director and composer, Shuja Haider – the duet featuring Ahmed Jehanzeb and Umair Jaswal captivates you from start to finish as a result of its carefully intricate instrumentation. Starting with the strumming of the guitar laying the foundation of the main riff of the track, the song builds on an atmosphere leading to the interval played impeccably on the violin by the string section, giving this track a definitive amount of energy and spirit from the onset. Jehanzeb’s melodic, dynamic singing style combined with Jaswal’s aggressive, energized vocals serve as the perfect accompaniment against the unstoppable groove, a flickering drumbeat and timely interludes of this magnum opus. #CokeStudio9

One thing that we indians feel like -"ye baat.. ya sahi hai.." about pakistan is COKE STUDIO. Never fails to amaze world with amazing talent and absolute creativity.
COKE STUDIO(pakistan), take a bow...!

Suddenly got remembered of this song after 7 yrs and literally came running towards it. gonna leave my comment here so whenever in the coming future someone likes it, i bless my ears with this masterpiece ❤

[Eudokimos_M.]

I'm Russian speaking (from Ukraine, Eastern Europe) and don't know either punjabi or hindi or urdu

but this song touched me deeply.. I felt it with my soul through. Cried and cried. Sure, everything we see is just a illusion of our consciousness so we should discover our true 'ourselves', our true "who am I".

Would like to have russian subs attached also there but it isn't possible anyway.

For the entire 8 minutes and 43 seconds, these guys managed to keep my eyes pinned to the screen, and aural senses at full alert! What an energy, what a vocal throw! And for people trying to compare the two talents here, they complement each other beautifully... Definitely one of the highlights of this season :)

Coke Studio should do world-wide tours. Imagine this song in a live concert with a live orchestra!!

I'm addicted to Coke Studio Pakistan. Great work from all artists involved in Coke Studio Pakistan. Turning old songs into high end Masterpieces, high standard musicians, with high standards of music arrangements, playing, singing and performing in very classy manners. Love and respect for all Coke Studio musicians and Artists with such amazing live performance, and this song is definitely one of the best.

[JessePinkmanABQ]

This song should have had 20 Million views by now. Leave the Momina videos people and jam to the real deal. Probably the best song of the season right here.

[lovisharora]

Recently I started following Coke Studio songs and I am in love with the lyrics of these songs they are really amazing.I am from India and I am in love these Pakistanis, after listening to these songs, I wish I could sing these songs as well because they are soothing to hear. Umair Bhaijaan aap bahut fod ho :) . All these musicians must have worked very hard to come up with this masterpiece. People are so much unaware of the real music, I will try my level best to make this popular. Love you :)

Ahmed Jahanzeb's voice and pitch are mesmerizing. The surprising softness is completely disarming.
