'Tokari' - Papon & Sugandha Garg, Coke Studio @ MTV Season 2

This is a folk song from Assam. Tokari is a form of traditional folk music in Assam, which also originates from the Assamese instrument dukari. Papon has added a lot of electronic elements to the song. This form of folk music is slowly dying out in Assam & this is Papon's attempt to give it some focus and bring it back to life.

Context-
This is a form of Folk singing from Assam called "Tokai" as it's played with a single stringed instrument of the same name. This particular song describes the
playful and often mischievous antics of a young Lord Krishna and his troubled mother.
The Song-
Lord Krishna's would merrily get away with mischief and his disregards towards the chores given by his mother.
Krishna is loitering around in the forest and playing his flute, tapping the beat with his feet...but he's supposed to look after his cattle ? He plays his mesmerizing
flute by the banks of the Yamuna River, blissful under the shade of a tree! The Gopis (his female companions) warn him...Wait Krishna your mother is coming to
get you.... where will you run today? But they say "your flute mesmerizes us and makes us forget everything...but your mother will still come and catch you and
tie you up to the same tree as punishment... cause you have forsaken your duty towards your herd!!"
Where will you run today O Krishna!!

Lyrics so much rich...... Love it oh! Lord Krishna) (Under the shade of kadam tree, with all his cattle, kanha plays the flute) (along the banks of Yamuna river, lord krishna is playing the flute mother Yashoda has heard him now) (O lord krishna, where will you run today? to Yamuna riverside? to the shade of kadam tree? Mother Yashoda will catch you, and will tie you to a tree.) (In the fields of vrindavan, krishna's cows are grazing, while he is enjoying playing his flute. On hearing the sound of his flute, gopis lose all their senses and get immersed into the music.)

Hyder Jaman thank you

[@pujabordoloi9314]

we use dis type of song while worship... here some added modern instrumental fusion... but our all songs are krishna relted.... (rest of Indians think that north east people are christian n oll...but in North East, we hv total 8 states and evry state have different language ..tradition and culture...infct we dnt know about other culture and languages of other states of northeast... so here we r Assamese people are total Hinduism and our God is Krishna and we have same culture and tradition wth rest indians) but we can't show our culture to rest of Indians and they think we r Christians and we r diffrnt frm them and our food is diffrnt... But actually we r not.... our krishna janmasthomi...raslina..Holi are the biggest god relted festival.. but nobody knows!!!! and Bihu is our agricultural based festival when Indian new year came).. if u meet one day a guy frm north east Meghalaya or Nagaland and a guy from Assam or asomiya dn u will get d diffrnce...many Asomiya girl r working in Mumbai TV serials .. but nobody can recognise them dt dy r frm northeast bcz dy r not luk diffrnt frm rest of Indians....

[@manasinishchay3475]

Puja Bordoloi We are all Indians. I have many friends from northeast- from 3 states over there- including Assam. Retrograde thinkers will be there in any society- that doesn't eliminate the fact that most Indians do not hold these grudges. Just that haters are the loudest - doesn't mean they are the majority. We all love Papon and as for my personal opinion, northeast people are closer to nature than any of us. They respect women. The guys are humble and sweet. And girls are just the perfect combination of brave and nice/ soft at heart.. So, please don't explain yourself. We do love you.

[@vishallyndem]

this is the best coke stuido single of any I have heard. absolute beauty. the rahman ones are over rated. then there is the usual high viewership sufi cliche. Pappon has an awesome voice. and my god love Sugandha's smoky huskyvoice.

[@senormassao]

Alright. Being a Pakistani one should carefully listen to all Coke Studio India songs, and than comment (Since it is hard to swallow anything critical from another nation:-). These were the best ones that I like: -- Peekaboo-Karsh Kale (everything good except the damn rappers and English lyrics are annoying) -- Dilruba-Kailash (flawless) -- Dinae Dinae- Papon (flawless) -- Tauba- Papon (flawless) -- Yaar Basainda-Saint Thyagaraaja (everything good, though male singing could be improved) -- Hoo-Harshdeep Kaur (everything good except the vocals are a bit too echoed) -- Mauj Naina (flawless) -- Husna-Hitesh Sonik (flawless) -- Khwajababa-Shaantanu Moitra (flawless) -- Khumaar-Papon (flawless) -- Tokari-Papon (flawless) Based on the Coke Studio India songs alone, I think Papon is the most gifted musician. Coke Studio India should let him take control :-) Do share your favourites from Coke Studio Pakistan. Keep up the good work. Love from a Lahori :-)

[@senormassao]

Amit Kumar Singh Thanks. Interesting comment about the mixing and mastering.This is new info. Please share the source, etc.

[@mtarkes]

You really have good taste and sense of music. But to me almost every Coke studio India song sounds like crap compared to Tokari. No offence.

Very commendable effort by Papon to bring the music ingeniousness residing in the folklore of Assam to a bigger audience.. This is Tokari and other genre of folk songs like Jumoor , Goalporia Lukogeet , Bihu are equally good and the various blends with Punjabi , Bhojpuri and Rajasthani..are rare successful experiments... National integraton on Music :-)
