Celebrated musician turned actor Tahsan has come back to band music with "Biyogantok". The track, featuring Tahsan and the Band, was released on Tahsan's official YouTube channel, recently.

Following along the commitments of the band from its first release "Protibadi Gaan", which premiered on June 18, 2020, "Biyogantok" is composed and penned by Tahsan. The band also features Shourin (guitars), Shimul (bass), Adit (piano) and Samiul (drums).

"This is the second production from the series. We had launched with "Protibadi Gaan", shares Tahsan, the frontman of the band. "The track was recorded in one take, just like the old days."

Presented by Yamaha Studio, the title, "Biyogantok", means 'tragic'.

"Biyogantok is one of my favoutire Bangla words. Our language has beautiful words and while writing songs, I wish to revive such words that are seldom used," he adds.

Recorded live by Rakat Zami, the track is accompanied by a black and white music video, crafted by Jubaer Takulder. The video features Tahsan alongside the band members.

The artiste is set to give it all in terms of crafting his own songs in the forthcoming year. "Being in the commercial arena for a while, it is exciting to be able to come back to my own genre where we can experiment more and gather new learning experiences," shares Tahsan.

"As musicians, I feel it's always rewarding when we can stretch our boundaries and that is only possible when we commit to make music for our own satisfaction," he adds. "I have given a lot of time to please commercial demands, but now it is time for my core audience to enjoy my best efforts."

Moreover, Tahsan is set to visit University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) next year where he plans to release his first English solo album.
