@@WinterInTheForest”I can’t stand this music” means that you hate it. Just think about that for a second. Do you really hate it? Maybe you just don’t get it? Maybe there’s an element of the music that triggers a negative emotional response? If that’s the case, you gotta figure out why that’s happening and maybe try and resolve it. I personally can’t stand Italian pop music. It sounds so cheesy and it’s always about the same thing. It also pales in comparison to American or English pop music, in my opinion. But, if someone like this guy, we’re to make a fusion remix of an Italian pop singer, make it sound like metal with insane double kick drumming underneath, I would definitely appreciate that!

I don't know many people here know this but one of the best things about these shows that Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan used to do was there used to be alot of improvisation while performing on the spot. If you listen you any of his songs recorded in 2 different places you will definitely see that there is a lot of difference and improvisation. That's why he was titled as an "Ustad" which is "Master" in English because this man was a God level musician. You will never see him giving queues to any of the co-performers anyone in his team can come in steal the lime light with a mind blowing note and no matter where they wander with the notes they always find a way back to the song and that was one of the most beautiful things about his performance. Listening to his songs will take you to a journey.

I was one of the few non-Pakistani in the audience. Everyone was dressed up so fancy and doused in wonderful fragrances. There was a constant line of people walking up to the stage - during the concert - to place money on the corner of the stage (it must be a Qawwali thing). It looked like one guy put down a large bill, picked up a whole bunch of bills as change, and then proceeded to return all the change on the stage, one bill at a time, bill after bill after bill. Nusrat sounded great and the experience was transcendental. You have done him justice! I love what you're doing in general with South Asian singers.

These Pakistani/Indian Fusion tracks are a masterpiece! I've been playing these tracks on repeat for a week now. Simply brilliant! It is insane how talented you are!

[@locomotionlotion779]

I’ve always been a fan of multicultural metal, some of the Chinese and Mongol metal band are incredible. Even Dio leaned into a lot of Arabian and Persian sounds in some songs. But, this is the first time I’ve heard anything like this! It’s awesome! I can imagine a lot of songs being like this, with local traditional instruments being introduced in the choral breaks. Excellent work!

[@denissetiawan3645]

can you recommend me some chinese & mongol metal?

[@locomotionlotion779]

@@denissetiawan3645 have a go with Nine Treasures (Spotify of course lists the most popular songs first, the top song is amazing.) and see how you get on with that. Their ‘Wisdom Eyes’ album is the one where they use localised instruments the most.

Enjoyment : intense. It almost moved me to tears when i saw you singing along : i love how invested you are :) Thank you for the beautiful creations ! Take care.

[@omairsh8]

Andre has done so many parodies, but you can tell he’s very respectful and invested in Ustad NFAK’s music. Total love and respect

[@twirlinplanes4164]

i've been decently into metal for a while, and i've also had my fair share of interest in vocals & singing. i have a very good range and good vocal control, since i was born with natural perfect pitch, but all my life i've just heard mostly White American and Western European music, the vocals in this song have STUNNED me because i CANNOT SING ALONG to parts of it. even the most fast-paced Western songs with the craziest notes i heard i can match, and i can even sing along to other languages like Italian, but the VOCAL CONTROL OF THESE SINGERS. and the NOTES THEY HOLD. THEY'RE SITTING DOWN. i can only DREAM to match it. ever since you've been making these metal covers of the Nooran Sisters and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, i've been OBSESSED. i can't listen to Vocaloid anymore because i'm reminded of this, and what the human voice can do, and how nobody has ever even TRIED to bend a robotic voicebank to this level of expertise. you have altered my music taste at a level deeper than i thought possible. congratulations, Andre! if you continue to make these i will continue to gush about them to my friends forever

It's a bit hyopcritical though since music and in particular music with drums is a major sin in islame. Punishment is execution in some places. So...

[@mjt1517]

@@AntiAtheismIsUnstoppable Is Andre a Muslim? If not, Islamic ideas about what is or is not a sin wouldn't apply to him. Not sure how his mashup qualifies as hypocrisy, since he's not preaching one thing and practicing another. Which is what 'hypocrisy' means. Also, where do you get the idea that music and drums are a major sin? And can you tell us which places execute musicians? Is Pakistan one of them? Is Andre subject to the law of those "places"? I feel that you're lacking critical information. At least until you return to update your claims.

[@AntiAtheismIsUnstoppable]

@@mjt1517 Wooouw, that is not what I am saying... I didn't say anything about andre actually.... I said the singer was officially a muslim, and as such, I would expect him to follow his faith, which clearly says no musical instruments. And then I later added, based on interviews with the singer, I don't believe he was actually muslim, because he said he liked classical music - which absolutely has any kinds of drums. So, this singer would have loved this video..... The reason why he became so popualr is obviously because he was so good. And many muslims (especially westernized muslims) are hypocrites, they enjoy what is haram, then just call it a grey area. They like what we like, but they're not allowed to express it for their faith. So... show this video in an area with sharia and punishment is indeed execution, or at least imprisonment or lashing. There's no way around it.

[@mirzabaig6713]

This is so refreshing, what great fusion. We demand more from Andre. The legend of NFAK lives on... beautiful ! The guy on background vocals is a young Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.

[@christianwagner5301]

Thank you for broadening my musical horizons and introducing me to such wonderful musicians as the Nooran Sisters and the great Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, who as a metalhead I now sometimes listen to "solo". I bought you some coffee - Dear listeners please do the same so that we can continue to listen to such brilliant music and maybe even get an album - Thanks Andre!

[@theawesomer]

A match made in heaven. Incredible!

[@guitarvocs]

This is the best one. It just is. Breathtaking. I've lost count of how many times I've played it. I'm starting to be able to sing parts of it phonetically. Thank you!

[@moneyheaven7549]

The harmonization that you have done behind his vocals...especially the taans, blowing my mind bro!!!! Wooohoooooo

[@outoftheb0x]

I used to play in my college rock band and someone introduced me to the music of Nusrat. I was amazed by his vocal prowess and some similarity to heavy metal vocal chops such as compression and distortion in many of his songs. Twenty years later, Andre has finally matched those soaring vocals with a befitting metal track. Kudos!

В очередной раз убеждаюсь, что движущей силой жизни, объединяющей человечество в единое целое являются: любовь, музыка и жажда нового. Стираются временные границы, и предубеждения, замыкается круг понимания того, что всё, что когда-то было или ещё будет с тобой, уже переживалось миллиардами людей до тебя. Только в единении и понимании мы сможем понять, в чём есть истинный смысл любви. Спасибо!

[@quirklyquibble]

I gotta leave a special emotional comment here, because I don't know how you do this, but your stuff totally drives me up. You play so well and come up with such amazing music ideas that I start to feel through the sound, and this is by far the most important thing for me when it comes to listening to songs. And I am amazed, that content which is meant to be just for fun actually makes me feel something more deep. Without a doubt, for me you are the one of the most talented musicians out there. I remember myself dreaming of playing in bands, doing stuff , writing songs which would eventually hit hard, and I mean only music, nothing about getting many listeners or something, just plain music. And I played for 8 years, was in a few bands as bass player, some were good, some were not as good. But damn that feeling, when you play, when there's that loud sound getting out of the speakers. I was always, always excited to play. Then life changed, I changed. Got frustrated that we didn't create music that would completely resonate with me and I left all bands, stopped looking for musicians and decide to create music on my own. I learned to play guitar, to sing like Chris Cornell or Layne Staley, I wrote all the parts for 11 songs and I broke. It was hard, damn hard to maintain all that by myself, and at the same time learn tons of stuff related to my jobs, and to work. I then quit, basically sacrificed my dream to a career. And guess what, I failed at .... career. Because my thing was always about music. I never dreamed about that job, I did that because of I though necessity. But that wasn't true, I always loved music. So now I don't have a job, I don't have rehearsals, I became too worn out to continue with pushing my stuff alone, so I could record it in a good quality. And besides all of that there's war in my country now. I miss rehersals, and music in my life. Thank you for reminding me about my true love by your creativity.

[@TehAwesomer]

[@RoFLduhasLoLgesagt]

As the retailsalesman that i am, i would put you into a music store, selling instrumental stuff. Cause nobody knows more about instruments, music, sounds and all the other stuff you have to know, than an actual experienced musician. This, in my opinion, can mean more then having actual retail experience. Hope you find something that lets you be creative for a living.

[@ProfessorNoonie]

You can sing like Cornell and Staley? I’d love to hear your stuff

[@raykay72]

I’m in the same shoes to some degree…but I never stop making music. I create it because I have to, whether the world listens or doesn’t, I just create it. Like many musicians I have a day job, it doesn’t do anything but pay the rent. That’s my life, but I have music…and I’m putting out more stuff this year. Just do what you love as much or as little as you can. It’s food for your soul and you can’t go to your grave without feeding your soul.
