ISLOTIMES: Where
Did you get your name?
AARISH: Don't really remember :/
ISLOTIMES: Who
Could be said as the most talented person in the band? And why?
AARISH: The band is not based on one single talented person, it's a mixture of talents
which makes them unique. Just for the sake of answering to this question we
would say Umar Bashir as he is quite experienced.
ISLOTIMES: What
makes you guys different from rest of the bands in Pakistan?
AARISH: We can't really differentiate Aarish from the rest of the Pakistani bands as
there are many talented musicians working in our music industry but we would
love to answer to this question after when we reach to mainstream.

ISLOTIMES: Describe
Yourself, Tell us what kind of Team you are?
AARISH: We all were in a same school and know each other for about 5 years now. We
support/work together, have respect for each other, and help one another when
needed.
ISLOTIMES: You
guys are quite young? Do you guys think that you are old enough to enter the
music industry of Islamabad?
AARISH: Yes because age doesn't matter, If you have any talent you should put it to the
place where it is meant to be. As if it is about age, Justin Bieber is one
biggest example. Though we hate him! :P
ISLOTIMES: If you
were able to sit under the table and listen to any two people speak, who would
it be?
AARISH: 1. Aahh we had a discussion about this one, but didn't reach anywhere since we
all want to hear different people :P
2. Any street musician! Because they are full of inspiration, they suffer a lot
to stick with their talents to and their dedication is the best thing about
them. They are creative and good at improvising.
ISLOTIMES: Do you
listen to classical music?
AARISH: Classical
music, whether you love it or hate it, has been a powerful and helpful weapon
for any band. So, yea we do listen/cover to classical music.
ISLOTIMES: Have
you studied the history of sound and music?
AARISH: Uhh we
don't want to Google it and fill the space and impress our fans just telling :P we haven't.
ISLOTIMES: One
female underground singer you guys would like to collaborate with?
AARISH: Not
sure but we think Maria Fatima. As she is a great singer with a great voice.
ISLOTIMES: Have
you found that women are more attracted to you when you tell them about your
success?
AARISH: Pass :P
ISLOTIMES: Funniest
moment at any performance?
AARISH: The speakers blew as soon as we were going to start :P
ISLOTIMES: Selena
Gomez or Miley Cyrus?
AARISH: None.
ISLOTIMES: Where
do you guys see yourselves in the next few years?
AARISH: We are sure we are not going to India :P like others when they reach to their extreme level. Ha-ha but yea we will be on a
mainstream and will always make music for our nation.
