Junoon on making future music

Since the announcement and comeback of Junoon in late 2018-2019, followed by successful live show(s) in Pakistan, U.A.E, United Kingdom, and United States – among other places – rumour has it that Junoon is set to make music, again. And we’re talking original music. In fact, it was even reported that the band was working on a new single.

But speaking to Gulf News later in the year, Ali Azmat noted, “We obviously change as people. Writing styles have changed. The things we want to say have changed. The other individual is sitting in New York and writing songs and is not in touch with the person sitting in Lahore [who is] facing load shedding, bomb blasts and air pollution.”

He added: “We live in different worlds and singing songs of hope is easy when you are sitting in your comfortable New York house. I see life very differently. We can’t do this over the phone. Salman has sent me some music over the phone, but how much of that is music really? We need to sit down and have a musical conversation and we haven’t had the time. There are ideas exchanged and something will come of it in due time.”

Salman Ahmed added: “Over the last 12 months Junoon has been working on new material which reflects who we are today. Over the next few months, we’ll be recording new songs … let’s see what happens after that.”

Junoon’s last album, Deewar, was not received well while Ali Azmat has a strong solo line-up and has produced two fantastic albums.
