(CRYPTIC FATE)- Akromon by CRYPTIC FATE - THE 1ST ZOOMBIE MUSIC VIDEO OF BANGLADESH

Could This Be The Next Step to Music Videos in Bangladesh??             About a year ago, four friends decided that they wanted to dive into the world of videography together and that’s how Flybot Studios was born. When the founder of Incursion, Saadi Rahman, asked Flybot’s Khan Samiuzzaman about what they could do for Cryptic Fate’s album Noy Mash, they came up with a theme that we are yet to see in any music video in Bangladesh so far. A group of young individuals ready to become a horde of zombies was called up to make this zombie apocalypse themed music video for Cryptic Fate’s eight-minute song Akromon.  The director of the music video, Wasi Ahmed, tells us that the music video follows a story set in a time where zombies have taken over the streets of Bangladesh. We follow three veteran zombie hunters who have had their lives torn apart by this apocalypse. Akromon is a song about war and how you have to fight to survive. The music video conveys that very message with sty

TRAPPED IN A CLOCK’S TRAP!

TRAPPED IN A CLOCK’S TRAP! Muttakin Rashid Alvi     What a ridiculous situation it was at a Malaysian Hotel! I was sleeping in our room. There were two beds in the room — for me and my sister. While I was having a mellow dream, an alarm (set in my mobile phone) went off loudly. It ruined my sleep. To my horror, I saw on my phone that it was 4:30 am and my sister wasn’t in the room.

I returned to my room and called the reception. I told them that my sister has disappeared. They kept saying, “Disappear? Disappear? How? How?” I was crying and wondering why would my sister go out without informing me at the wee hours. This was our first time there and we didn’t know the place well yet. That thought made me more anxious. Moreover, my sister’s mobile phone was in the room and after calling my parents I found

Imagine I am a Cow! ( THE ARTICLE OF COW! )

Imagine I am a Cow! Muttakin Rashid Alvi No, I am not joking at all! I am serious about this! I am really a cow now! So let me SHOUT, “Humba!’’ At least for some kind of harmony for sometime.                 My eyes see and feel many bad things happening around the planet. But the only thing that I can do is SHOUT, “Humba!’’ Because I am a teen aged cow and my horns aren’t too long let alone being sharp. I can’t express my feelings like humans do and so I can’t protest that much.              I like moving from one place to another. I love the fascinating tea gardens and when I am on the hill-tops I feel cheerful about the fact that I am far far away from humans.               I see liars, frauds, cheaters but I can’t burn their lips. I see eve teasers but I can’t be the goddess of vengeance. Because there is no Nemesis for giving me any kind of regalia for a few days.                One day I saw some bad boys beating an old and poor man. The man’s fault was that
