Production

Following middling reviews and dwindling television rating points of subsequent seasons, Rohail Hyatt, the founder of the show, returned as the producer after 5 years. The series was produced under Rohail Hyatt's production company Frequency Media and was distributed by Coca-Cola Pakistan. [5]

Speaking at the launch of Coke Studio Season 12, Rohail Hyatt said: [6]

In a world where there are multitudes of information, sounds and conversations to choose from, Coke Studio wishes to offer a space where one can contemplate the reverberations of a single guitar strum or the notes of a few piano keys. Traveling down the ladder of time, from the courts of the Delhi Sultanate and the music studios of pre-revolution Iran, through mountains and valleys, much like the water that trickles down from a natural spring, music came to Coke Studio’s canvas. At its core, Coke Studio remains an offering, a space where we share what has come to us, welcome to those who wish to join us on this continuing journey of exploration.

—  Rohail Hyatt, producer Coke Studio

General Manager of Coca-Cola Pakistan, Rizwan U. Khan said,

“Coca-Cola Pakistan is committed to share the values of unity and harmony through the universal language of music that transcends any cultural barriers or boundaries. With more than a decade of musical legacy with Coke Studio, we will keep striving to carry forward this beacon of hope and celebration through our firm belief in the power of music.”
