Damn this is sic!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Sher Foundation. They never seem to disappoint.

 

[Manjot]

sher mixes r always sickkk

 

[ranjit singh]

that mix is insane

 

[Kush]

This is basically a clip from their MiamiBC mix from this year. Its the first 2 minutes. And yup, its sick.

 

[Naveen Singh Khokhar]

Their mix is sick and all but im not too big of a fan of the actual choreo. i like more all out dancing throughout the whole routine with energy, clean formations and execution of moves, and good nakra throughout the entire dance than a dance that focuses on stunts and breaks in the dance. don get me wrong im not tryna hate. sher is good at wat they do def..im jus not a fan

 

[dheerja]

I'm pretty sure I know all of Sher's mixes by heart after listening to them nonstop on my ipod (Sulman can definitely say the same). Their Bruin '08 mix has got to be the best one by far, it is legen - (wait for it, and I hope you're not lactose intolerant) - DARY.

eez a gude wahn

Sher Foundation's biggest success lies in helping develop a new school of bhangra. I agree with Naveen's comment (about more bhangra, less gimmicks), but I think overall Sher Foundation has made its mark in the bhangra realm and now really they don't care about placing but rather entertaining the crowd and being memorable. Their choreo & execution is very distinct plus they are one of the pioneers of that modern-west-coast flava (along with Soormay,KJ), however their more notable trademark is the constant barrage of stunts, gimmicks, innovative moves. From a bhangra aspect, some people like it, some don't - but overall this routine defines Sher Foundation perfectly...7 mins of pure entertainment.

 

[dheerja]

Sher Foundation and TRB were two of the first teams to start choreographing steps in 16 beats, instead of 4 or 8. If you watch routines from 2005 and earlier, most of them would do one step for 8 beats, then switch to another step for 8 beats, etc. etc. Sher and TRB were really the pioneers of the complex choreography we see in all routines today. Now you'll see a set of steps for 16 or more beats, and that set might be repeated later.

 

[zagreus]

This is a great mix as well. Man...Sher really defines creativity.

Although they use more gimmicks and other techniques, it's who they are. They change stuff up all the time and as Wall-e said, they helped pioneer the west coast bhangra. The video itself is pure entertainment...and their mixes last.

 

[Arjun Barua]

I liked the "Gym" scene at 5:00. Crowd went nuts, couldn't even hear the song.

 

[[Sher] Imran]

That song defines our captain Sat the best

He doenst have time for the ladies cuz he's gotta hit the gym haha

watch their performance in boston in 2005...and see what you think then...

i love the gym scene...and im really feelin at 5:48 when the two guys come to the front...thats just cold....and the double spin when they go into phumania ...are you kidding me? tooo sick...

I think alot of people that were kinda around my age when they got into college and the bhangra scene (seniors now, or one year out of school) will agree with me when I say SHER had a HUGE INFLUENCE on us...and like Dheerja said..alot of us know most of sher mixes by heart.

...and I just scrolled down and read Waleeds post...basically the same thing he said.

 

[itnom]

You guys are right in terms of how our routine had more stunts than moves at Bruin...but its bruin .. Last year, we didn't hit our stunts as how we wanted it to be so this year we had a cirque di soliel theme attached to our performance with nothing more than pure entertainment. At the end of the day, people are paying money to come watch the performances that will make them groove and i know all the teams did any awesome job in that!! We definitely are more thankful that we had more than 4 standing ovations throughout the routine and i wouldnt trade that for any kind of trophy. Thanks for all your comments and feedback and i do hope we live to everyone's expectations in the nearby future. Our love for Bhangra is even stronger so i am sure you are going to see a new side of us in the up coming year. Once again, Congratulations to DRP, Bhangra Empire, and VCU at Bruin 08, you guys rocked! I never wrote an official thank you to some people so here they are.

Thanks:
Mandeepak Patrola ( UBC girls captain - Chimta)
Malinder Tooray ( Dhol Nation - Dhol)
Turbo & Jaz ( Pugs)
Ajay ( Poster coordination and Music)

True dat. When Sher Foundation first hit the scene... dayum, good times.

Thank you...I will be seeeing you soon...no doubtt bro.

 

[Naveen Singh Khokhar]

haha jeeti i wasnt tryin to hate on their style or anythin i was jus givin my opinion. im more of a fan for more traditional bhangra where posture, grace, and executing moves at the same angle all play a huge role. i mean sher is really creative and hav helped in startin cali style an all. but like i said im jus not a fan. i was influenced by more traditional live bhangra teams when i started dancin and all. therefore india teams and toronto teams like rooh and nachdi (more so when they went live) entertain and amaze me with their sets as opposed to cali teams and their style. mad props to sher for doin so much for their style of bhangra tho.

 

[Kush]

If one of the shers gives me the go ahead, I can post the MiamiBC 08 mix (its the complete version). Oh and Sher Foundation is legendary. Lol first bhangra team outside of Florida I had ever heard of (w/ KJ), and always my favorite at the SBB competitions. BTW it was good to meet some of you guys at MiamiBC this year.
