Indian pop girl group W.i.S.H. has released a reimagined version of the iconic track Boom Boom, originally performed by the legendary Nazia Hassan in 1982. Produced by Mikey McCleary and Parth Parekh, the new version blends the essence of the original track with W.i.S.H.’s signature contemporary music.
W.i.S.H.’s rendition of Boom Boom pulsates with foot-tapping energy, blending intricate vocals and dynamic instrumentation to leave a lasting impression.
“It’s an absolute honor to be able to recreate Nazia Hassan and Biddu's classic song,” said W.i.S.H in a statement. “We’ve all been influenced and inspired by the disco era and so we've poured our hearts into this project, crafting the sound into a perfect blend to present to the new generation. It’s a balance of nostalgia and innovation, something we’re incredibly proud to share.”
“This project was truly special,” says Mikey McCleary. “Nazia Hassan and Biddu's original was ahead of its time and remains unmatched. With W.i.S.H., we wanted to retain its timeless appeal while introducing a fresh sonic palette that today’s audience would embrace. It’s a homage to this timeless classic and a celebration of the disco era.”
W.i.S.H. is India’s first girl group in 22 years. The band consists of four talented singer-songwriter-performers—Ri, Sim, Zo and Suchi. In just eight months, they have released six singles, growing a fan base of WISHSTARS across over 150 countries.
