EMERGENCY KISS: FROM THE GUTTER TO THE STARS

“We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.”

― Oscar Wilde. By the time they made Love Is Slow Poison, they had survived years of misfortune, including a fire that destroyed their first synthesisers- The only ones they had.The album was recorded at a friend’s garage and was released through a label whose infrastructure and reputation was as non-existent as the band themselves. A few friends got the CD’s which at that time were still novel (and expensive) in India.

In the first half of the 2000, a new generation of musicians took inspiration from the shimmering tracks on Love Is Slow Poison and soon EKISS became minor cult celebrities in Bangalore.

The band recorded two more albums after Love Is Slow Poison, but they fell apart long before the second album was released. Three women who couldn’t play music had run out of steam.

However, like all good things, their music refused to come to an end. 

One track on the album, “JUICE”, best listened to in its entirety, as it is a lyrical tour de force, with lines like:

“AUR JAB GARMI LAGHTI HAI TO TUM PHIGALNE LAG TE HO.” When it’s hot, you begin to melt.

Is this some kind of prescient love anthem for the climate change era? I don’t know.

Emergency Kiss’s music is edgy and unapologetically noisy, with elements of jazz and post-rock. The jazz comes in not because they were trying but because the music often drifts into “Sun Ra” type of a tonality.

The band members didn’t care for the terms ‘funk’, ‘rock’, or ‘synth-pop’; they simply wanted to make music. Songs like “Juice”, which is also the band’s greatest hit, reflects the band’s awareness of the constraints of being in a band, with the words “Maine manga juice, tune Zeher pilya” or “I asked for juice, you gave me poison instead”

While Emergency Kiss’s music is incredibly poppy and catchy, they wrote in Hindi. They sing in Hindi. They actually wrote in Hindi. They didn’t think twice about this, and seem to have embraced their limitations for the sake of creativity. Although we often see many bands of South Indian descent in the UK rarely do we see South Indian bands writing in Hindi. This is partly because Hindi is a classical language of the north and partly because South Indians aren’t typically taught to write in Hindi until much later.

Emergency Kiss, despite being teenagers, displayed an incredible amount of self-awareness both lyrically and musically.Interestingly, despite the intense (but playful) musical style of the band, none of Emergency Kiss’s instruments sound ‘awful’. If anything, their strong, catchy melodies often fall into very catchy pop melodies.There is still plenty of energy and youthful exuberance in this band, as evident in this video that was released two years ago. 

Rumors abound that the band’s album - “Love is slow poison” will soon be released by an Indian Label.

Higher. I prefer deeper but the parallels are the same. Spent the day stemming out parts off tracks from my upcoming EP to design my new live set for upcoming tours that I start rehearsing for next week. Gotta say it‘s been super trippy listening back to details I‘d completely forgotten about. The vocals you‘re listening to here were recorded on a laptop mic in a hotel room in #mumbai while on tour. Can‘t believe I‘m saying this but they actually get to stay on the record cos I never managed to recreate the vibe on later vocal sessions. This entire record was written on the road and is a tribute to the nomad in all of us. The influence our external surroundings have on internal energies as intimate as music never ceases to amaze me. Goodnight. #re_movement . . . . . . #musicians #electronicmusician #nomadlife #performingproducer #singersongwriter #producers #desi #indianelectronica (at Mannheim, Germany)
