explaining things...
i m studying sound engineering(ok i know this is not important)...but i knew
most of the things that he (arr) tries to change....but i m very deeply
disappointed when i know from krishna chettan himself said that he did the
emine emine in i miss u da song from sakkaraikatti....ar rahman is a music
director and a composer too...but why he let krishna to do the hip hop beat for
some songs in sakkaraikatti....ok...i still dont care about music or hip hop
beat bcoz i too have the same loops in my pc.....but i still think the emine
emine stuff alittle bit over rite....please advise me on this madhavan..

The way you guys talk is as if that Harris has rhythm programmed for ARR from
"Roja" to "Rhythm"...Baseless allegations. ..I'm not here to degrade anyone. I
respect Harris for his talents, but coming to the facts one should be right
before talking in a public forum...
Is there any one gifted by God till now who can change the trend that ARR has
set right from Roja?..Now that God has given another gift to ARR to change his
own trend and that's why you feel that difference.. .Let's take a case...By the
time when you first heard the Sakkarakatti song, ARR would have already
composed for atleast 50 songs for his future projects...But when you get to
hear one of those new songs after may be a year or more, still it feels so
fresh and never heard before...That's a true magic and a gift from God to ARR
to cater a future expectation. ..He is the one who is setting another new trend
in the music industry...
He uses the right instruments / software loops in the songs...For youthful
commercial movies, he experiments a lot with the sound samples, loops, and
beats which will make you feel energetic... At the same time, he experiments
using live instruments for melodies that turns heavenly! Some time he does the
opposite as well that's why he is magical; example - "Naalai Ulagam" from the
movie love birds - A 7+ minute melody song with awesome orchestration and
sounds not just transferring between ears but takes you to a different world
altogether!
In his recent melodies, he works a lot on tunes and once fixed, he doesn't
disturb that melody line by adding a lot of sound layers...Like Munbe Vaa or
Marudhaani, they have a base loop that runs all through the song without any
variations.. .But still the strong melody line and the sound quality takes it
to a different level...This is the reason that one doesn't find a lot of
preludes and interludes in his recent songs whereas songs like "Anjali Anjali"
had a lot of them...
Each song is new and fresh from ARR and I love to hear each one of those
instead arguing that 90's are best etc.
And I should not forget to mention what Krishna Chetan said - "A R Rahman is
the Captain of the Ship" which would clear other allegations.
Long Live A R Rahman!
Peace,
Madhavan.R
I live in a musical kingdom and A R Rahman is the King.

exactly ,aurora,
the same thing that i hav been thinking for so long,...it all happened after
rhythm and especially after bombay dreams...although arr came wid some gud
albums like guru ,ayutha elutu(yuva) and many more.....it was none like his
90's movies or before rhythm which all the songs have the breathtaking feeling
or emotional feelings in it.....
just my feelings and opinion...dun get angry and just try to discuss
here....after all its just about our guru rahman rite

im a rehman fan too...but not a Harris disliker...some of my pals
wrote that HJ was copying ARR, but its hard to agree dat. HJ is a man
with talent, no dbt abt it..but he also had some inputs durin d time
he worked withh ARR. wats wrong with thinkin alike and givin some
thing similar to his old inputs,in his own creations?..
Its true HJ sounds similar to ARR...d latest i hav noticed is d
enadhuyire from bheema..It was somethin close to ARR,but
disappointingly our maestro hav not given anythin like dat in d last
2-3yrs..nd how many really likes d way ARR treated tracks
"Maridhanee" ,"Elay" from his latest film Sakkarakkatti. .
hey nd just pay a close ear to those films frm ARR after Rhythm(that
was probably d last movie which HJ nd ARR worked togather)..nd after
that there was no movie frm ARR,which had all d tracks(at least
75%,which,he usually does) bcomin such hits(nd surprisingly d reverse
is happening for HJ)..,we fans seem to b forgetful,for the above
recent fact.
nd the most reasonable thought is dat he could b dat busy with his
'real' projects(internatio nal) so that he allows his companions to do
lionnshare of d indian movie works..
also there is dis possibility dat he may b takin a short break in
order to transform the way his music sounds...i optimistically think
this is a time like one we had previous Rangeela...
and u all know our mastro also worked with Ilayaraja..now plz listen
to the Kanne Kalymaane song and hav a good ear on its background nd
the pattern of d song..the use of certain instrumnts,especial ly the
way the rhythm is set, i think it sounds more ARR than IR. What i
belive is dat ARR(not only him,also others) had given his
inputs/suggestions, nd IR took some,nd dropped some nd came up with IR
version(but didnt sound like one of IR).
also have u noticed the latest ADA title song(ADA by sonu nigam)...u
see a female part at the begning,singing in a diff language..i think
our maestro got inspired by HJ..the only diff is HJ uses some other
type of modulation nd light instuments for that part..
nd the Athiredee song from Sivaji..the beats surely inspired(only
inspired,not copied) from sister from Blood on d dancing floor b
Michael Jackson..
nd for one thing we must truly adore him,nd thats why we still like
him,trust him nd love him for...cos he, only gets inspired,(never do
the cut,copy,paste thing with others songs), nd out of his inspiration
we get some outstanding/ fabulous songs of all time..even the talented
HJ nd Joshua fails,and at somepoint of their heart, dont belive their
inspiration could work wonders than the inspirational source..
.nd by writing i know i cld hav made many of my frnds angry,nd
offended many...but being rational,i could not help pointin these.
