Push us out to the deck, old steroid, blinking through the studio-fresh
Most of our recent filmi albums have been like homeopathic droplets in a sea of banality. Except Sajid-Wajid's Dabangg, nothing on the horizon has really pushed us out to the deck in recent weeks. So how do you keep blinking through the studio-fresh, yawnsome stuff? You reach for some old steroid, instead.
Thanks to Virgin Records, we have just the right medicine at the right time - another collection imported from EMI Pakistan's Great Works series. This three-CD set, comprising 28 songs written by the late-13th-early-14th-century poet Amir Khusro (as it's spelt on the cover), comes right after a similar collection of Faiz Ahmed Faiz's works. And like the earlier collection, it dazzles.
Please explain to me the highlighted parts.

Just guessing on this stuff, gary. Nothing on the horizon has really pushed us out to the deck Sounds like a steamship cruise metaphor. If someone spies something exciting or interesting on the horizon, we all rush out on the deck to have a look.

Thanks a lot Avangi. Your expalnations are amazing as usual.
The only thing which I can't understand is what you mean by "fresh out of studios". What it means by "studio" and "fresh". Is it photo studio?

I have you at a disadvantage, living only a few miles from Hollywood.
THE STUDIOS are a great institution! Of course there are TV studios in New York, but your post seemed to be about the movies. ("The studios" = Warner Bros, Paramount, MGM, 20th Century Fox, Sony, Columbia, Universal, etc.) The actual studios are here in town, but filming also takes place "on location"
