The Language Movement of 1952 is the result of our country’s fight to identify as a liberated nation. The present-day economy and culture of Bangladesh are also a consequence of the independence that our predecessors strived for. Our language transcends its role as a mere communication tool; it stands as an integral component of our rich history. As Bangladesh commemorates International Mother Language Day, the reverberations of its diverse linguistic heritage resonate far beyond its borders, underscoring its enduring significance on a global scale.
In the year 2023, there was a notable preference for Bangla songs amongst the audience, with several catchy ones gaining popularity. It is noteworthy that listeners actively engaged with and discussed Bengali songs, marking a significant accomplishment this year. There was a relatively lower release of new songs by production houses as their emphasis shifted towards drama production. Despite this, listeners continued to enjoy and appreciate the existing Bengali tracks.
Earlier, Coke Studio Bangla announced the news of their concert with an animated video by Antik Mahmud. The animated teaser featured the first song of Season 2, "Murir Tin", setting the stage with all the artistes and performers embarking on a musical journey aboard a bus, heading straight to the heart of the Coke Studio Bangla concert.
They say that life is a great leveller – and that sentiment is doubly true for the entertainment industry. Coke Studio Bangla, a cultural phenomenon fuelled by endless debates about meritocracy and even capitalism in music, started season 2 with the highly appreciated “Murir Tin”, blending dialects of Chattogram, Khulna and Sylhet to make an incredible musical mishmash.
The second season’s first song, “Murir Tin”, created a wave across the country with its’ soulful music and lyrical composition of local dialects.
'Murir Tin' is a creative fusion of local tunes and American bluegrass and rap music.
Recently, the first song of Coke Studio Bangla Season 2, “Murir Tin,” captivated the audience with its fusion of local dialects of Chittagong, Sylhet, and Khulna. In that song, Towfique sang in his native Khulna tongue, which gave the song a different vibe.
Written and composed by Riad Hasan, “Murir Tin” is quite different from anything else Coke Studio Bangla has ventured into.
After a memorable run last year, Coke Studio Bangla is once again back for its second season. The premier track was released on 14 February with a song called ‘Murir Tin’ and if the first piece is anything to set a standard, we can expect Season 2 to be explosive.
