Vijaya Anand
Dance Raja Dance (Asia Classics 1)

THE REVIEW

Encrusted with that occidentalism induced by toxic Anglo-Saxon imperialism that brings damnation and "death" everywhere, we cannot help, being so polluted, but notice even in the musical field that there are other realities that can enrich us and possibly start a revisionism of our musical tastes, sowing doubt that all those melodies, those choruses, that pop, rock, classical music, avant-gardes and casual experimentation, and all those millions and millions (they say...) of records sold worldwide by all these damn regime groups and "artists" that have been shoved up our asses since the sixties, have led to an auditory autism that has reached an almost point of no return of idiocy given the "all you need Is love" content inoculated.

You will then understand that proposing these soundtracks of films composed by the same director, Vijaya Anand, which at first seem ridiculous, is quite a fight against windmills.
But with a moderate attention to listening, the "frivolous" compositions can open up very fun and fulfilling scenarios in the millennia-old reminiscences of pop disco musical opera proposed by this playful compilation.

A courtesy, don't bring up, because India is involved, the topic of castes. The world is full of contradictions and lately, our "democratic" society has amply demonstrated the paradox of discriminating at will. Always democratically, eh...

Returning to the musical impact, what can be said except that all this circus is exciting and refers to the oral tradition of telling the stories of History, both small and large, in blossomed loves, of phantasmagorical adventures, of battles, of spirits, of Gods, of Kings and princesses.

And Shiva's dance is danced to the modern rhythm of a Bollywood that suggests giving up tiger hunting to embrace a healthy "volemose bene," especially in these times where "Peace" is trying to be made passé.

The musical pantomime proposed here will never leave a bitter taste in our mouths.
