If some one is to ask you to prepare a list of songs by Pakistani artists, which can be played as a background to a sit-down semi-formal dinner party, what will you select?
I guess we can include some offerings from Jawwad, Vital Signs, Strings, Hadiqa, Abrar etc? Not sure what songs. If you have any ideas, please share. Thanks.
How about some classics by Nazia Hassan? Throw in some Shazia Manzoor into the mix just cause I like her stuff. :)
I dont know if i should include him as pakistani or not, Adnan Sami has sung some good tunes that can be played at a dinner party, such as kabhi tho nazar milao...i think that is a perfect one.
I remember going to a restaurnt where they were playing shazia manzorrs songs such as batiaan bujai rakhdi, and ghar aja soniya, lightly in the back ground.
Nazia Hassan, excellent tunes any will do
Faisal bhai, you can add Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Noorie and Junoon to that list too.
You can browse by artist on muziq.net and you can choose the songs from there :)

Are you guys sure, this kinda stuff is good for background music in a dinner party? I mean, we are not having any dancing or bhangra or anything like that. Its just to create a soothing and nice ambience and to share some familiar tunes in the background. When I think about it, wouldn't it be better to have some nice instumentals of Pakistani music, rather than full fledge songs, which everyone will be trying to ignore amongst their conversations?

I was about to say that. :)
I would suggest songs by VS or JJ. Most of the songs aren't upbeat. I've found they create a nice undertone to conversation.
most of the songs are easy listening (for dinner and coversation time).. some are fast ones that u can play during the party
I have some nice instumentals of these songs too
will send em thru msn tomorrow
soothing and nice ?
List of slow songs :
YEh Dil - by Saleh khan
Her chehra - VS
Hum Na - Rungg
khogaya mera chand - Rage
Tum Kehti ho - Vital Signs
Aoun waha Chalein - Najam Sheraz
Kiyou - Nazia and Zohaib
Khwab - Junoon
Bheegi Yadie - Junoon
Instrumentals
hmm I can’t think of any more instrumental music. ..If I do I will update the list
Faisal bhai, we play these type of songs in our pakistani society events, like during dinner time etc and its fine...You can play them in the backgorund and in about five minutes or so people will get used to them. Instrumentals might be better though but if you don't find enough then in se bhee kaam chal...balkay dorr...jayay ga :D
