Cast your burden on the Lord,
And He will sustain you.
Worry not what awaits you,
But rely on the Maker,
Who knows your frame.
Learn from the trees;
They face many stroms,
Remain yet eternal,bold and strong.
The roots penetrate deep
To bear the shock.......................
When hurdles throb your way,
Lose no heart,
For GOD has a plan-
To weave you strong.
As the tress will you to stand!
This seems to be ubiquitous buzzword in our music industry today. With music companies releasing scores of remixed albums, the songs from past have again made way to our TV screens but in a new ‘avtaar’. The melodious tones have been replaced by techno-heats which cruelly camouflage the hidden beauty of these songs. And what to mention about the plight of composers and creators and singers of these songs. Hours and days and even months must have gone into the preparation of their songs which were very obviously created to serve a certain purpose and to portray a definite meaning. Unfortunately the purpose and the meaning both got lost in this zeal for creating “Peppy” and “Jazzed up” numbers and all that the creators can do is merely sit back and helplessly watch. We are all familiar with Lata Ji’s reaction to “Kanta Laga”.
Remixes might have taken over the music market and may have the maximum demand but the reason for their sale is much more ostensible. What is actually pumping the sales of these albums is cheap publicity and obscene videos. The remix business involves little effort but promises a huge return and because of this very market sentiment, boards of companies are investing in launching remixed rather than original albums. After all who would not want to “play safe”.
What is even more intimidating is the realization that the remix business is killing the creativity in the music industry. People are earning their livelihood from others’ creations. There remains absolutely no cope for originality and if this trend continues, very soon our industry shall loose its ‘Maestros’ leaving us at the mercy of imitators and Dise Jockeys.
Some might say that times have changed and in order to cater the demands of today’s generation, the music also needs to be refurbished, and as far as creativity is concerned, remixing is quite a creative job in itself. But why not ask there DJs who boast of such creativity, to create songs exclusively or today’s generation? I’m sure such songs will be more popular than their remixed counterparts.
Yet others might feel that remixes are one way to bring the old buried songs to the fore and let the younger generation be made aware of the richness and the beauty of these oldies. In such a case, what is to be understood is that listening to these songs in such distorted form does little to bring out their inherent beauty.
So let’s give up these hypo critic standards and incline our industry to work towards creating good music. Let us join hands in supporting the creation of good, original music and like their industries, let the music industry grow into a strong, well built industry where the talent is recognized and appreciated. It is very aptly said that ‘Necessity is the mother of invention’; unless the market arouses the need for original albums, there is going to little progress. The effort on our part should be ‘Not to imitate but to create the R. D. Burmans, Latas, Rafis and Ashas of this generation.

Punk fashion is using a medium to make a statement. It includes clothing, hairstyles, cosmetics, jewelry, tattoos and other body modifications. As punk fashion has been influenced by various subcultures and art movements like glam rock, rude boys etc, so have the styles of these cultures been influenced by punk fashion. With the growth of punk fashion, it has become extremely commercialized and has been used in the production of various styles by famous designers.
During the initial stages of the growth of punk fashion, punk clothing was handmade and was mass produced and sold out.
The original punk fashion of the 1970s acted as symbols of extremely rebellious and controversial styles. The style was different from the basic punk look that came much later. The styles of punk fashion kept changing and new styles appeared in the market. The shirts were printed with deliberate offensive symbols like an inverted crucifix and a Nazi Swastika. These kinds of T-shirts often invited controversies and were torn by people on purpose. Leather jackets and customized blazers are common styles that are still a common fixture in punk fashion.
Punk styles can be in different forms like clothing, T-shirts with anarchy symbols, brightly colored or white and black dress shirts randomnly covered in slogans, fake blood, patches and controversial images like portraits of Marx, Stalin etc., customized blazers, light leather pants, tapered jeans, pants with leopard patterns, bondage trousers
footwear, military boots, motorcycle boots, brothel creepers, chuck Taylor All-Stars.Hair is cropped and deliberately made to look messy, dyed bright unnatural colors, liberty spikes, mohawk hairstyle etc. Other accessaries include spike bands, studded or spiked jewelry, safety pins in clothes (unnecessary) and as body piercings, silver bracelets, heavy eyeliner worn by both men and women, female punks tend to mix feminine cloths with masculine, razor blades and chains etc.
Punk ideology
There are a variety of social and political beliefs of the punk subculture. Punk culture has originally been associated and linked with individual freedom, which draws attention of the punks to other aspects like individualism, anarchism, and freedom of thought. Views of punks have always been critical of the world. They see modern societies as the ones that place extensive limits on humanity. The medium that they use to express their ideologies include punk music, punk zines, literature etc.
The punk culture has originated as a movement of shock, rebellion, and discontent. It has also evolved as an overt political movement. The political ideology that has been quite largely associated with punk is anarchism (political theory that favors the abolition of government). Punk has also been associated with other leftist ideologies like social liberalism, socialism and communism. Right wing ideologies like social conservatism and neo-Nazism have also acquired a place within the punk culture.
Philosophical ideologies include atheism, agnosticism and humanism along with religious ones like Christianity, Islam, Hare Krishna movement etc.
Punks execute their ideas often through protests, boycotts, violence etc.
