[arr] Re: Do you think that YSR has come a very close 2nd to ARR??
Hello folks, I partially agree with Anujit. YSR is growing very well and at an amazing speed. His compositions are stunningly different, however, some of them are inspired from some international numbers. I heard the music of one of the tracks in "Pudhapetti" in a Citibank ad that comes when u listen to songs on Raaga.com. And I heard this ad couple of months ago (before Pudhapetti audio was released), which means, its inspired, if not a complete copy. Nevetheless, I love many of YSR's songs, esp. I love "Arindham Ariyamulam", this album is one of my all time favourites apart from many of ARR's albums (difficult to list them down :-) ) and "Minnale". Even I do not understand Tamil, since I am from Andhra Pradesh. But Rahman's music made me foray into tamil music and I found that many others, directly or indirectly inspired Rahman, are coming up with better tunes day by day. I used to rate Harris as the next big thing in Indian music after (and only after) ARR when I heard "Minnale", but YSR is growing much better than Harris. I think bollywood directors should start utilizing these growing tamil talent, thus reducing the load on ARR. They are definitely not a replacement for ARR, but since there is "only one good" composer in bollywood, all the "good" film-makers are coming to him only, so atleast composers like YSR & Harris, (who are 100 times better than Himesh Reshmaiyya or Anu Mallik, I am saying YSR is 100 times better than Anu Mallik, now think can I even compare anyone with our boss?) can be utilised by them. Especially, I dont like Rahman to work for directors like Ahmed Khan (Lakeer - The Forbidden Lines). Such people, being ARR's fans like us, might be requesting our boss so much that he accepts their offers (u can see his humbleness and generosity here). These directors can go down to south, since even Harris' and YSR's music is beyond being regional (remember that RHTDM is musically a big hit, though the movie bombed). But till today, except, Ilayaraja & MM Kreem (his hindi music is just uncomparable with his telugu music, listen to Sur & Jism and then listen to his telugu "funny" songs, though he did made some good telugu numbers too), ARR is the only successful South Indian MD making it big in bollywood. I wish YSR to grow more, but also to be more original, so that he can help "our-kind-of" music get more popular in the days to come than the typical "Jhalak Dhiklaja" ones. I will wait for ur comments and thoughts.

[arr] Taal & Rangeela inspired from Vangelis' compositions
Hello Everyone! I recently read in one of the sites that Taal & Rangeela movies have music inspired from the famous hollywood composer Vangelis' compositions. I am not sure if this is true, but I verified in couple of sites and looks like true. I am trying to verify this, but wanted to know if someone in the group has already came to know about this and did some research. If yes, please share it with th group. Please visit the below sites for more information: http://www.ecranlarge.com/dossier-109.php (Check the section - Musique réutilisée) http://imdb.com/name/nm0006331/ I strongly believe that even if this is true, it might be a coincidence.

[arr] Rahman in top 100 film composer's list
Hello Dear Co-Rahmaniacs! This is my first message to the group, though I have been a part of this groups since several months. I always thought that I was the greatest fan of Rahman, but this group proved me wrong. What makes me surprised and happy is that all of us think alike when it comes to Rahman's music. There are several instances where I could see people writing their experiences about Rahman's music that I have experienced too! I have recently seen visited a site that listed Rahman at top 13 position in the list of Top 100 Film Composers. Thats really amazing! Rahman achieved this without composing music for even a single hollywood movie!!(Except "Lord of War", where "Bombay Theme" has been reused. I think "Bombay Theme" is one of the greatest musical creations happened on earth, this track has been used in so many international albums, that proves its indeed beyond anyone's musical imagination.). If you see the list, you will see popular hollywood composers like John Williams, James Horner & Thomas Newman. This is a great achievement for Rahman. You can check the below site for more details... http://moviescore.blogspot.com/2005/10/elfman-still-number-one- composer.html I look forward to your comments. Cheers, Srinath.
