Rupankar Bagchi emphasizes on the fact that even amid the Bangla band music ethos, he always wanted to be a solo performer and never a band’s front man. He states that the influence of rock music found in his songs have nothing to do with the contemporary Bangla Band songs. He traces these influences back to his childhood favorites like The Police or Pink Floyd. In a rather nostalgic mood, he laments about the all-engulfing digital drive that has turned analog archaic. He feels that digital does away with all human errors and makes art bereft of the imperfect but human touch.
