BhangraChase, Comedy, Cool

A mid-tempo 105 BPM strut in F pairing male and female Punjabi lead vocals with twangy reverb-soaked surf guitar, a fat funk bass line and tabla-driven groove. Struts rather than sprints, with a sly, sexy comic swagger built for slow-motion entrances and spaghetti-western-style stand-offs.

BhangraChase, Comedy, Cool

The fastest and brightest cue on the set at 120 BPM in A minor, driving hard on tabla and beat with surf guitar riffing over a flute counter-line and traded male/female vocals. Energetic and happy with a chase-scene urgency that suits foot pursuits and dancefloor cutaways.

2:31·110 bpm·B·4 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Emotional

A romantic 110 BPM cut in B where synth pads soften the surf guitar and funk bass under paired male and female vocals. More emotional and flirtatious than the album's chase tracks, tilting toward a courtship scene or a lovers' meeting played for warmth and humour.

Pass The Naan
STYE563 · Bhangra Boys · Rick Troy Balentine
2:39·81 bpm·D·7 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Emotional

The slowest groove here at 81 BPM in D, a loose swaggering shuffle with sitar and fiddle joining surf guitar, funk bass and tabla under male and female vocals. Comic and sensual in equal measure, ideal for a leisurely feast, a sultry saloon interior or a deadpan visual gag.

Dastaar

2:30·86 bpm·E·4 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Fun

An 86 BPM cue in E stripped to the album's core band — surf guitar, bass, tabla, beat and male/female vocals — with no sitar or strings sweetening it. Cool, unhurried and a touch lecherously funny, good for a character-establishing walk or a barbershop/turban-tying vignette.

Maharaja Ranjit Singh
STYE563 · Bhangra Boys · Rick Troy Balentine
2:49·92 bpm·Em·7 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Fun

At 92 BPM in E minor this is one of the album's grander cues, adding flute, synth and strings to the surf guitar, funk bass and tabla foundation. The minor key and widescreen sweep give it a regal, faintly cinematic tilt suitable for historical portraits and epic-comic build-ups.

Dupatta

2:54·105 bpm·Gm·7 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Fun

The longest of the mid-tempo tracks at 2:53, a playful 105 BPM number in G minor with sitar and fiddle threading over surf guitar, funk bass and tabla. Flirtatious and teasing, built to carry a full scene of romantic mischief or a spinning, colour-drenched dance sequence.

Tumbi
STYE563 · Bhangra Boys · Rick Troy Balentine
1:48·100 bpm·Fm·4 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Fun

At 1:48 the shortest and most compact cue on the album, a 100 BPM F minor groove with sitar over surf guitar, funk bass and tabla plus male and female vocals. Punchy and quirky with a darker minor colour — a natural fit for a short-form spot or a quick comic interlude.

2:21·95 bpm·Em·7 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Energetic

A brisk, happy 95 BPM cut in E minor with no ornamental instruments — just surf guitar, funk bass, beat, tabla and youthful male/female vocals. Playful and energetic at a tight 2:21, made for street scenes, kids-and-teens footage and light-hearted group activity.

BhangraComedy, Cool, Fun

A 95 BPM cue in E flat with flute, synth and strings layered over the surf guitar, funk bass and tabla core, giving it a more scenic, panoramic feel than its neighbours. Cool and slyly sexy, suited to mountain-and-valley aerials cut against a wink of comedy.

Land Of Five Waters
STYE563 · Bhangra Boys · Rick Troy Balentine
3:12·120 bpm·Dm·4 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Energetic

The longest and most fully arranged track at 3:12, a 120 BPM D minor driver with synth and strings over surf guitar, funk bass, tabla and lead male/female vocals. Fast, festive and celebratory with room for a proper build and payoff — the natural closing or full-length montage choice.

2:50·92 bpm·Cm·4 versions
BhangraComedy, Cool, Emotional

A 92 BPM cue in C minor with flute, synth and strings adding an emotional edge to the surf guitar, funk bass and tabla groove and call-and-response male/female vocals. Cooler and more wistful than the album's outright comedy numbers, working for a reflective beat inside an otherwise upbeat sequence.
