ALI AZMAT AND UMAIRJASWAL TO TAKE PART IN RED BULL SOUDCLASH ON AUGUST 27TH

It started with a leaked video where Ali Azmat shared his views about young musicians of Pakistan and seemed quite unhappy with their (young musicians) style of music. In particular, Ali Azmat disapproved Umair Jaswal’s style of music and songs.

Fans of both musicians reacted to the leaked video, some agreed with Ali Azmat’s viewpoint while some believed he shouldn’t have had come hard on Umair Jaswal. The overwhelming support Umair Jaswal received from his fans since the leaked video went viral prompted  Jaswal to respond and this resulted in a war of words between both musicians that went on for days. It was finally on August 5th when Red Bull through a post on its Facebook page invited both musicians to settle this on stage before the tension between both musicians escalated any further.

After a couple of days a promo was launched with a bang in the media where the tension between both Umair Jaswal and Ali Azmat was brought to life. Directed by AsadUlHaq the promo brought both musicians with their supporters face-to-face on one platform, thus building anxiety and curiosity amongst fans of both musicians for Red Bull Soundclash.

Red Bull Soundclash, the unique musical confrontation concept, will put Umair Jaswal and Ali Azmat to compete for the affection of the crowd on two opposing stages. After warming up with a couple of tracks each band sets on an opposing stage to execute a musical conversation that will push the boundaries and have the audience roaring in support gauged by a decibel meter.

Red Bull Soundclash comprises of four rounds:

1st. Round ‘The Cover’: The DJ cuts in a well-known song. Each band plays a cover version of this famous song in their style.

2nd. Round ‘The Take Over’: Band 1 plays one of their hits. In the middle of the song Band 2 takes over the song in their style.

3rd. Round ‘The Clash’: The bands have to play their own songs in 2 different styles.

4th. Round ‘The Wild Card’: Each band plays one more song together with an invited musician/special guest of their own choosing.

Red Bull Soundclash is scheduled to take place on the 27th of August at Expo Center, Karachi.
