I personally find it in bad taste. Another attention grabbing subject, that will hurt ARR fans so much. I wonder why people go writing such things and then finding some twisted explanation for such thought.
Bollywood Music had seen its low in 70s and 80s when it was utter cacophony and mostly senseless. Then Nadeem Sharavan and Anand Milind brought a fresh air to it and melody was back. Anu Malik also started giving much better music since Phir Teri Kahani Yaad Aayi. Jatin Latit was also consistently good though his films were very less. And now, many many consistently good music directors are there. Not only because of ARR's work but overall level of bollywood music has become much better now than it was a decade earlier, and from that what was one more decade earlier, and again from what it was another decade earlier. There has been and are many other good MDs who have consistently or occasionally given great music, while ARR remains the undisputed king and he has done a tremendous lot and the most in this direction. Let us give joint credit to many other doyens also, where it is due for this positive outcome. Only one thing is undisputed: in ARR's music, there is consistency, and noise to signal ratio is very very very miniscule less. No one could better him on these two count, not even RDBurman whose noise to signal ratio was very high. -- Rawat On 1/19/2010 11:49 AM India Time, _Ranjit k_ wrote: > Hi, > > It is my personal view, I do not know if i am right or wrong, but > according to me Rahman is a Bad Music Composer. > > All these years I have listened to all his compositions starting with > Roja till Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya. > > But now suddenly when I look back, I realize that he has increased my > standards in appreciating what is called good music > so much that I simply cannot appreciate any other music composer's music > unless it meets Rahman's style or standards. > > So, eventually you have started expecting a lot from each music composer > than what we did before ARR started ruling music industry worldwide. > > My question : Is this change a good thing or otherwise? > > Regards, > Ranjit
