just curious... firubbi.. my friend is from bangledesh, now lived in Japan.. but anyway, when he had his wedding in bangledesh, a couple of other friends from Japan (also my friends) went to bangledesh.
Well, what was interesting was my friend brought back a long 8 hour footage of how things were in bangledesh, and I'm extremely curious to find out more.
I think we all know that Bangledesh isn't an extravegant place (no offense) because of the yearly floods and a tough economy. Particularly because certain people purposely destroyed the economy a while back.. But obviously, there are those that are much more well off than others, and here you are, talking about competitions between studios.
And I'm thinking... studios? So, what's the music industry like in Bangledesh? Who produces, distributes, and consumes properly produced music? The only CD I heard, which my friend got for me in Bangledesh, whas 1 CD which was a compilation of multiple artists, obviously burned by someone and sold.. and another VCD which was also a compilation of music videos of several artists. And frankly, all of them were not produced too well, or didn't sound like they used any competitive studios.. So I'm wondering how that all works out.
Not to mean disrespect to Bangladesh and all its artists tho.. I can only imagine how tough it is, and I commend all those who create despite the hardships. Or am I painting the wrong picture here? Maybe the artists are rich people in Dakka who are livin' the big life, cut away from the harsher life outside the city?
as you want respect for your work, you've shown your respect to others - you can face your life and challenges with pride, it will make YOU stronger
