How rare is it to search for and eventually fall in love with a sound cut through a network of perfect sea stillness? Associating the wind with the sea will sound banal until you’ve heard Meghdol’s latest work, E Hawa. Social networks are now completely enchanted by this masterpiece. I feel like you have every good reason to receive so much love and support.
Meghdol can easily be described as one of the most popular bands of Bangladesh’s young generation. So it was only a matter of seconds after the song was released and people started tuning in to hear what they had created this time. E Hawa is the fifth track from Meghdol’s latest album Aluminum er Dana. The song could be a collaboration between Meghdol and Face Card Production for Mejbaur Rahman Sumon’s upcoming film Hawa. Written and sung by Shibu Kumer Shill
And Mejbaur Rahman Sumon, this song features artists from the film.
The music video begins with the screen appearing in a combination of navy blue and teal, some rust and faded wood in part of the boat – the boat where the story of the film “Hawa” began. A raging sea with raging water splashing the hull with the wind making it flow dangerously fills the mind of the listener.
Singer-songwriter Shibu Kumar Shill’s voice transcended the boundaries of space in this song. He challenges this “Hawa” (the wind) to understand the destiny to which he is being led. The heart of the listener beats through here at least once in this scorching summer heat with cold emptiness.
The layers of instruments come together one by one: the guitar solo at the beginning. The drums surrounding the voices gently begin to inform the story of the harshness. Guitars and drums slowly blend with the flute, saxophone, and clarinet to a melody that sums up the main theme here, the stormy sea.
The singer’s voice, constantly fed by these instruments, sinks from a sore crest to something almost hollow. The general setting of the ship with flashes of red light against the monochrome phosphor of the sea will transport the listener’s mind to this ship caught in a storm.
