ARR gave Cat Stevens...-------------------------South Asian Musicians Come to Aid of Earthquake VictimsThe single, entitled 'We Can Make it Better' will raise funds for Save the Children in Indiaand Islamic Relief to help rebuild the lives of those affected in the region.
The project - which was started in January after the Asian tsunami that hit Thailand, India,Sri Lanka and Malaysia amongst others - has been extended to help the earthquake victims.17 giants of the Asian music scene are involved in the project including input from hugely
successful composer A R Rahman.Other artists on the single include Sukhwinder Singh, Jaspinder Narula, Shaan, Hans Raj Hans,UK Apache, Am'nico, Dhami (Heera), Channi (Alaap), Djinn, Mistri, E=MC, Shahin Badar, Sumeet,
Surinder Sandhu (sarangi), and Shahbaz Khan (tabla). The track is produced by Mukhtar Sahota.Mukhtar Sahota told Asianinmedia.org: "The idea behind the track was to take a similar approach
as to the Band Aid single but with Asian artists from around the world. Asian music is sodiverse and I felt that if we can bring different music genres, from Eastern and Westerncontinents together, we can make a difference and at the same time the recording could be a
history in the making."Singer Sneha Mistri added: "After seeing the images on TV I just felt lost and helpless withall the suffering going on. So when I was approached to be part of this, I felt a sense of
relief to be able to do something."I hope that we can make a difference, however small because we will always have more thenthose people directly affected in both tragedies."Organisers say all artists gave their time free of charge and the money raised will be donated
to the charities excluding any distribution and retail costs that may apply.The single is due for release on 11th November and is available from HMV and all good Asianmusic outlets, and some crap ones too.
