Coke Studio Pakistan season 4

The fourth season of the Pakistani music television series Coke Studio Pakistan commenced airing on 22 May 2011 and ended on 17 July 2011.

The houseband recruited drummer Raheel Manzar Paul and vocalist Rachel Viccaji.

Other featuring artists in the fourth season included, progressive metal band Mizraab, Balouchi folk singer Akhtar Chanal Zahri, pop rock band Jal from Lahore, qawwal group of Fareed Ayaz & Abu Muhammad and eastern classical Punjabi singer Attaullah Khan Esakhelvi.

The process of discovering, deciphering and understanding so many different samples of regional and classical music has been a huge undertaking and the responsibility of then reinterpreting and reinventing the material – repackaging it visually and musically – has been an immense challenge.

It has been a portal to discovery, inducing our curiosity and compelling us to dwell on the uniqueness of our heritage with renewed pride and respect.
