It’s Coke Studio Again

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

coke2

Yes I’m all coke’d out. Just launched Coke Studio season two website (http://www.cokestudio.com.pk/) after a hectic week at office with three nites just like last year with season one. So thought to share my experience of this season too. 

The Design:

Omair & me again on the design of the second season’s website of Coke Studio. We both worked really hard on the design this time. Did so many research and paperwork on both the design & development, made so many wireframes and sitemap before the start. Initially, he started the design then I takeover as he took leaves for the trip and then again he came back and did some final touches and we all know the magic he has in his hands. He surely is a Photoshop Rockstar! good work bro! :)

The Development:

Again, I was leading the development. Choose Wordpress as its my favorite platform. This time worked really hard to make it more dynamic and a good use of Wordpress power and also worked hard on the typography and fonts with complete web standards and SEO. I used cufón  javascript framework to use customized fonts on the website and found out that its very promising and far more better then sIFR that I used on the last season’s website and the fonts are making the website more sexy this time :D . I recommend cufón

The Support:

I & Omair choose FurSid and Talal for the help & support on different section of the website as it is going to be very huge one from the last year. So they both are in the Coke Studio team. FurSid is with me on the development and we both are digging Wordpress hard :) and Talal is helping us on the Video Player and Desktop Widget. Oh yes the desktop widget for Coke Studio will be out soon with the launch of Episode 1 hopefully :D . I would like to thanks Rohail Hyatt, Farhan Shaikh, FurSid and Talal for their support and we need more of your time on Coke Studio’s website.

That’s all for now. More things are coming up on Coke Studio website so keep checking and do follow it on Twitter and Facebook  for more updates :)

Hello, my friends

Hope you all are doing good! sorry for being away from the world of blogs and blogging. I miss you all (specially dehog, supersizeme, rockstar, batster, kurri patakhi, asim, ronin and many other blogers). I have been very busy with work, job and everything that happening around me. I did Coke Studio along with M. Omair at office. It was a great experience for us to work on this project and I’m honored that I got a chance to meet Mr. Rohail Hyatt(from Vital Signs). He is so down to earth, very kind and what a personality he has. I would personally like to thanks Fahad and Shahzad who helped us at the launch of this project. You guys rock!.

So here I’m, back to this world again :) so Rock on! and yes I can turn into Hulk with a smile on face. I no need anger to become powerful ;) (I like this movie and specially the ending :) . I didn’t liked the previous hulk movie but this one is good)

Love you all,
-zair (the hulka hulk :P )

Coke Studio

What is Coke Studio

Coke Studio is a journey into the heart of a recording studio where you will be able to experience the magic of live music being performed by some of the most talented musicians and artists of Pakistan.

Born out of a dream to merge tradition with modern, consistency with change, we have embarked on a journey to create a first hand experience for you to witness live studio sessions – something very few people have witnessed before as studio recording sessions are a secretive process normally only reserved for producers and musicians to witness and experience.

The performances of Coke Studio were recorded live in front of a select studio audience in Karachi in February 2008. Featuring in these performances are Duets by Ali Azmat and Rahet Fateh Ali Khan, Strings and Ustaad Hussain Baksh Gullu and Ali Zafar and Tufail. There are also select performances by Mauj, Sajid and Zeeshan and other traditional percussion performers. The Coke Studio House Band features Gumby on drums, Omran Shafique on guitars, Mannu on Bass, Zeeshan on keyboards and turntables, Saba and Selina on backing vocals, Shezi and Babur on percussions and a 4-piece Baluchi percussion band led by Abdul Latif. Rohail Hyatt is the producer of Coke Studio.

So get ready to experience fusion music like you’ve never heard before. Get ready for Coke Studio… Starting 8th June at 10:00 PM (PST) on your favorite TV and Radio Channels
