I personally don't find any problem even if ARR uses others' loops or gets part of music or BGM done by others (I don't know whether he does or doesn't).
ultimately ARR is responsible for the overall quality of music, so he listens to those "others'" work, he must be changing that if he felt it lacking in any way, and then he must be including it in any song or album of his. What we get in the final product is ARR approved sounds. For me it doesn't matter if other persons worked on those sounds. Hasn't it been always the case. It is like various people playing various instruments in recording of any song anywhere in the world, not just bolly or holly film music but even symphonies, operas. The main composer is responsible for the overall music. Of course he can't play 100 instruments all by himself for each song. It is like lyrics, we know that ARR himself has never written lyrics, he is officially having someone to write lyrics for each song, still, ARR is responsible for the lyrics in his songs. What problem can anyone have with it? -- Rawat On 8/16/2010 1:07 AM India Time, _indmovbuff_ wrote: > Kishore, > > I remember you objecting strongly to a post I made about Aisha's > music and how it was not appropriate to compare anything or anyone > to AR's music which I wasn't doing in the first place. only > recommending a non-arr album I liked which does not in any way > imply that I like Amit more than AR etc. > > But this accusation of yours- accusing Rahman of using "arrangers" > to do the BGM is just way off the line, man.
