Music From The Third Floor: Vol. 8

Music From The Third Floor: Vol. 8

When I pensioned off, sort of, this blog two years ago, I never thought I'd be doing another sampler. And yet here we are, with a new specially compiled mix of fabulous Bollywood tunes from posts past. Just goes to show. Will there be a volume 9 somewhere down the line?

Track listing:
1. Rajni Hai Mera Naam (from Aafat)
2. Music (from Roti)
3. Night Is Lovely Lovely (from Pyar Ka Sapna)
4. Sabse Buri Sharab Hai (from Naatak)
5. Urban Flesh Market (from Kamla)
6. Yahan Nahin Kahoongi (from Mr. Romeo)
7. Ding Dong Ding Dong (from Pasand Apni Apni)
8. Tere Bina Main Kuchh Bhi Nahin (from Nikammaa)
9. Dhire Se Aaja Ri Akhiyan Men (from Albela)
10. Kya Ho Phir Jo Din Rangeela Ho (from Nau Do Gyarah)
11. Come On Come On (from Paapi)
12. Dance Music (from Mukti)
13. Mausam Hai Gaane Ka (from Surakksha)
14. Koi To Aye Ga Re (from Aaj Raat Ko)
15. Khushi (from Star)
16. Aag Se Aag Bujhale (from Jalte Badan)
17. I Am Falling In Love (from Deewaar)
18. Coda (from Chhuppa Chhuppi)

Listen on Mixcloud.

Cover star: Parveen Babi (from 'Deewaar', 1975)

  1. Thank you very much! To be honest: I don't know anything about Bollywood music, and since I know a lot about other styles I am curious to learn abou Bollywood also. Your compilations seem to be a very good start, so I've picked them up (all 8). Let's start listening and thank you very much for giving the entry to a new experience for me!

  3. Each new volume in the compilation series only features tracks from soundtracks posted since the previous volume, therefore none of the above will be included. Sorry.

  4. I've tried every one of those download sites twice and none of them work.

  5. They all work from where I'm sitting. Are you sure you're clicking the right download links? I've noticed there are a couple of misleading ones along the way.

  6. Actually Sir, the 7 songs I mentioned on 23rd Oct's quote were from your previously uploaded albums. Please try if possible. Thanks.

  7. Actually, no, you're wrong. The songs you mention are all from albums posted before the previous compilation posted December 4 2010. So once again, they will not be included in future volumes.

    Additionally, and it surprises me that I even have to explain this, this blog is not a public service. I am generally happy to answer questions regarding what will be posted and what won't, but when I do, I expect that reply and my decision to be respected, without getting an argument in return. Thanks.

  8. Please don't misunderstand me. I thought that the compilation albums were made from your previously uploaded ones. So I made the request. I always respect your decisions and efforts , and very much thankful to you for each of your remarkable collections since last year. Thanks.

  10. Thanks for this and for the everything on the site, PC. As someone who has no friends (or enemies, for that matter) who appreciate this kind of music, it's nice to be able to drop by here. If there was a bar here, it'd be heaven.

  11. An exquisitely lit and well-stocked bar, situated on a third floor somewhere, playing vintage Bollywood soundtracks on the sound system - that is actually a lovely idea.

  13. Love your site and facebook page. I have learned a lot. I have downloaded and listened to every compilation volume except this one--but the links are dead :( Would you please reup please?

  14. Do not seem to be able to get Vol 1 - 8, click on download, nothing? Are they expired. or am i daft?

    Love the site, thanks

  15. That's odd. No they're not expired; could it be a browser issue? I've sometimes experienced (using Chrome) that nothing happens when clicking "continue" on the lix.in link but that it works on Firefox. Let me know how that goes.

  20. Damn. Not sure what to tell you, other than that there seems to be more of the same going around (https://community.box.com/t5/Help-Forum/Can-t-download-the-file/td-p/4604). If they don't fix it I'll consider hosting them elsewhere.

  21. This from Box: "Bandwidth for your account resets at the first week of the month but sometimes takes longer. In the meantime, we'll have to wait until your bandwidth for the month resets".
    Check again in a few days then?
