Rewben Mashangva- The King of Naga Folk Blues

Rewben is hailed in the Northeast as 'The King of Naga Folk Blues'. Rewben Mashangva's latest songs in the musical movie "Songs of Mashangva (DVD)" which was honored a National award and premiered in several countries is available in various online stores [ see link ]. The film is by Oinam Doren and distributed by Times Music. More about the film at the end of the post.

Watch Rewben Mashangva -a Tangkhul Naga, a performer, songwriter, and music researcher from Ukhrul, jam with "The Dewarists" in Shillong. Probably a Tangkhul can explain to us what the words in the song mean. But even if some of us don't know what the Tangkhul words mean, it is a great feeling of pride to see our Naga folk tune blended in such a musical harmony that makes it so good to listen to. Be patient to wait till 3:00 and hear the Naga folk tune come to live. Enjoy!



Excerpt from the YouTube video description:

"Fittingly, our season finale takes place in Shillong, Meghalaya -also known as the Scotland of the East. The episode features The Raghu Dixit Project, an act that has truly pushed boundaries to make dramatic strides both in Indian and in international markets. Joining them is Guru Rewben Mashangva, a performer, songwriter, and music researcher who is hailed in the Northeast as 'The King of Naga Folk Blues'".

LongLiveCinema.com: "Songs of Mashangva", the national award winning musical film’s DVD is now available in all leading Music/DVD stores across the country and 7 online shopping sites. The film is distributed by Times Music.

songs_of_mashangvaThe idea for the musical film was conceived way back in college when the national award winning filmmaker Oinam Doren was doing his graduation and heard Rewben Mashangva’s music for the first time. The melodious tunes which Mashangva described as ‘naga folk blues’ rooted to the tangkhul folk music was something the young music lover/collector Doren has never heard before. Eight years later, the father of naga folk blues and the

filmmaker met by accident in a studio that led them to collaborate on three musical films. Songs of Mashangva is the first of the trilogy which went on to have its world premiere in Leipzig, Germany. The festival reports that it received about 2,800 submissions from 97 different countries out of which about 300 films were screened. It was followed with more screenings in a number of film festivals around the world and finally the National Awards, the highest filmmaking award in India given by the President. Wherever it was screened, the film won rave appreciation for its soundtrack and the mesmerizing photography shot for about a year and half in some of the most exotic locations in Rajasthan, Shillong, Nagaland, Kolkatta and a number of foggy, mysterious villages in Manipur.

Songs of Mashangva is for those travelers, music/film or art lovers who is looking forward to explore and experience sounds & visuals from another lonely exhilarating locations of India".

Music Video | Mengu Suokhrie - You are mine

A new music video released some few days ago in Nagaland is making some buzz among the Naga youth in social networking sites. Here is Mengu Suokhrie's new music video "You are mine".

The music video, which is very well made, is by the NagaHeadhunters directed by Liyo Kikon.The standard and professionalism of making videos in Nagaland have been raised and people have high hope that it will only get better. I guess people in Nagaland have had enough of NFI films so much that they don't want t feel proud of those (giggles). If you are from Nagaland and don't know what NFI is go bang your head on the wall three times and YouTube.

This is a nice music video too. Enjoy.



Mengu Suokhrie is on Facebook!

Kumsujulo - Alobo Naga

Sumi Naga song from the talented Alobo Naga.



By Admin:
Many people who have heard this awesome song on YouTube have commented on the video that they enjoyed the song even if they could not understand Sumi Naga dialect. Some wanted to know and it happens that the uploader has provided - that must be a relief now that fans can listen and understand what he sang!

Here is what the song means: as commented by hokiye on the video.
"Everyday you hear there something’s wrong. There’s full of anguish pain and No hope to move.

Hear the children, crying out to you, Reach out with love and give them hope .

It’s for you and me, to keep the dream alive. Walks in hand in hand together reach our goal.

Souls have been broken. Its time to lend a helping hand .May the peace of God bring unity and love.

Let us live as one."
