People still listened to international stars such as Michael Jackson, Backstreet Boys and Aqua, but now, there were a bunch of musicians singing of our experiences in Hindi and that appealed to people, says musician Leslie Lewis, 5. The Nineties were an interesting time to be a musician in India. After liberalisation, the scope of private and foreign investments scaled up, paving the way for the entry of foreign broadcasters such as MTV and Channel V in the country. These gave people a taste of contemporary music from across the world, from a range of artists such as Madonna, Whigfield and bands like Shakespears Sister and Michael Learns to Rock. There was an explosion of choices and a talented bunch of artistes grasped it with both hands. Suneeta Rao, known for her song Pari Hoon Main 1. We all knocked on the doors of music producers, but we wanted to do more than just playback music. Bollywood didnt have space for people who thought clearly and boldly and wanted to do something different. That industry only wanted a certain kind of voice, a particular pitch. It was either for a heroine or a vamp, nothing in between, says Mumbai based Rao, who now does live shows and writes music. The Nineties were also a time to experiment. There was Shweta Shetty dressed in a mans suit, singing about Johnny Joker, her red lipstick as unmistakable as her deep, husky voice, in a Ken Ghosh video. Daler Mehendi gave bhangra a twist and got his audience to go Tara rara with him. While Jasbir Jassi, a young wedding singer from a pind in Punjab, sang of being thrilled about his heart being stolen by a girl from Gujarat Dil le gayi kudi, Bally Sagoo was adding slick beats to Malkit Singhs Aaja nach le and Gud naal ishq mittha, a song that still brings back memories of the Malaika Arora and Jas Arora video.

Without any internet, without the kind of marketing systems that exist today, it was a paradigm shift for the music industry. People were interested in music that was hip and their own pop by virtue of being in their own language, says Zoheb in a conversation from London, where he settled down after the death of his sister in 2. This new sound was also markedly different from what Bollywood was producing at the time. Apart from AR Rahman Roja, Dil Se and a few soundtracks from Jatin Lalit Lamhe, Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, Bollywood, says British Indian music producer Bally Sagoo, was producing really mediocre stuff and thats why there was such a spurt in interesting non film music. Sagoo, who began making music in Birmingham after being inspired by hip hop and reggae, was among the earliest to cash in on the trend. Merging Western beats with Punjabi folk, he came up with upbeat numbers that have become staple at clubs and wedding parties. For the first time, people realised that you could have a music video and it didnt have to be attached to a film. That awareness, and consequently, the investments in music videos and the presentation of the artistes that followed changed how one perceived singers. They became performers, says Sagoo, 5.

It was necessary to adapt to Bollywoods ways because either you toed the line or they would hire someone else to replace you, says Jassi. Bollywoods ascendancy would also spell bad news for music companies such as Magnasound and Polygram that had been launch pads for so many pop artistes. The record labels had begun investing more than they could chew. I heard that for Daler Mehendi, who was paid Rs 2 lakh for his first successful album Bolo Ta Ra Ra, 1.

The profits werent as big and the companies began to lose money, says Jai Walia of the Aryans. The arrival of the internet would sound an emphatic death knell for Indipop. Most music companies couldnt keep up and went out of business. Music labels tried to create paid content for a while for musicians who wanted to find a footing in Bollywood. Many of these artistes were musicians who had had their moment, but for music channels and record labels to survive, they needed more than that, says yesteryear pop star Anaida of Nazuk Nazuk fame.
