[arr] Oru koodai sunlight- never before, never again
Oru koodai sunlight- never before, never againBy Behindwoods News Bureau.May 21, 2007 We know that you are all dying to hear even the smallest piece of news about Sivaji. We have just the thing for you. A first hand report of what the Sivaji experience will be for you, an opinion from one of the privileged few who have already seen the movie. How could anyone have already seen the movie? No, this is not another case of Sivaji material being leaked ahead of the actual release date (remember what happened with the music). This one is from a person who couldnt contain his excitement after seeing the movie at one of the very few preview screenings that have been held for various reasons. The person was discrete enough not to reveal anything about the story. The only thing that he could manage were a few words of appreciation of the highest levels, he was searching for words actually. The only coherent thing that we got from him was that the song Oru Koodai Sunlight would be a never before seen experience on the big screen and the standards that it has set are going to be too tough to emulate in the foreseeable future. Well it seems that it has to be seen to be believed. Finally summing up what that lucky guy felt about Sivaji; we told you that he was actually searching for words; we guess the right word would have been extraordinary. We sincerely hope that we are right. - Give spam the boot. Take control with tough spam protection in the all-new Yahoo! Mail Beta.

Hi guys, Anyone read todays (21st may 2007) issue of Deccan chronicle. In the supplement there is a writeup on Tajmahal loosing its position from 7 wonders of the world. It says it needs 30 crore more votes to remain as a wonder and some organization have started a campaign for saving its position as one among the 7 wonders of the world. And it is said that AR Rahman has composed a score for supporting this campaign and will be aired soon. I am eagerly waiting for that. Anyone got any news about that? thanks - Boardwalk for $500?

Re: [arr] An old Hindu Interview
*WELL matured answers for difficult controversial questions from our BOSS at his young age...* ** On 5/18/07, durba bhattacharjee [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Just accidentally I came across this old interview of ARR, which was published in the Hindu sometime after Roja. As I read it for the first time, just though of sharing it with every one here. Question: How did you come into films? A.R.Rahman: My father, R.K.Shekar, was a music director in Malayalam films. He assisted Salil Chowdhary, Devrajan and others. He died when I was nine. At 11, I came to the field, playing on the keyboards and later as an accompanyist. I worked under under various music directors in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam - Ramesh Naidu, M.S.Vishwanathan and Illayaraja. It started becoming a bit monotonous. I thought advertising would be a good alternative. This went on for three years. I built my studio and took to different forms of music - pop, rock and so on. It was then that I met producer Tirlok Sharadha, cousin of ManiRathnam at a party. He (Mani) came to my studio and heard some of my tunes. We agreed to work together though we did not then decide on which movie.Only later he told me it was to be Roja which he was directing for K.Balachander. Q: Despite your success, you do not seem to be working in a lot of films. ARR: Rather than making money, I believe in making people happy; all other things are secondary. That is why I am not interested in a lot of movies but only in one at a time. I like directors whom I can vibe with. Ten years of experience in this field has made me quite frustrated. I have evolved a technique which re- quires a lot of time. Other music directors record a song in seven or eight hours. But I am different. we do a basic sitting and we record it. we record the voice and I add instrument by in- strument to improve the quality. Q: Will not the producers say that you are delaying their projects? ARR: My process involves a lot of time. The delay is not inten- tional. That is how I get my results. When people say that in Gentleman and Thiruda Thiruda the music is good and not like the usual beats, I feel happy. Abroad, in some places, they take three months to make an album. Do you use computer in your films? ARR: No. Not computers. The technique involved is different. In fact, they say the music in Roja was computerised. As I said earlier the recording takes time. You can hear the same flute here in a different way. It is not computerised music. Nearly 40 persons sang `Veerapandi Kottayile' (a song from Thiruda Thiru- da) that does not sound like computer music. `Vellai Mazhai' from Roja) is sync oriented. I do not restrict the musicians, but ask them to play whatever they feel. Then I record what I want. I spend a lot of time on lyrics too. It takes around four days. We write something in the first instance and then improve. So it takes about a week to complete a song. Q: Then you will be working only in perhaps half a dozen films a year? ARR: What will I do if I work for more films and only a few click? I do not want my energy to be wasted. I want every film to be a musical hit. In fact, Thiruda Thiruda songs have created a record for any Tamil film - 25,000 discs were sold in Malaysia. They are going to give us platinum discs. You say you are choosy, but you also go in for popular songs. Why is it so? ARR: Different people need different songs. I want to go down to the people at various levels. When I toured Tamil Nadu, I found that people wanted songs that would make them happy. Also noth- ing vulgar. There is nothing vulgar in Sikku bukku Sikku bukku raile (a song from Gentleman). Q: So you want to be with the masses? ARR: No, rather I want my music to reach everywhere. If I play rock, only youngsters will understand, while older people will say Why is he shouting like this?. Each category of music reaches only one circle: for the class audience Thiruda Thiruda and for the masses Gentleman. Q: Does basic knowledge of Carnatic music help? ARR: Sure. I am learning Carnatic classical music from Dakshinamurthy and Hindustani from Krishnan Nair. I like tradi- tional music much. Q: Why is it that the songs these days go out of people's mind soon unlike the old numbers? ARR: In those days, the lyrical value was greater in songs. Q: You want to be called number 1 in the industry? ARR: No. Numbers are not decided by me, but by the grace of God and by the people. I want my job to be interesting and fun. I just do not want to get stuck again in monotony.

In the supplement there is a writeup on Tajmahal loosing its position from 7 wonders of the world. It says it needs 30 crore more votes to remain as a wonder and some organization have started a campaign for saving its position as one among the 7 wonders of the world. And it is said that AR Rahman has composed a score for supporting this campaign and will be aired soon. I am eagerly waiting for that. Anyone got any news about that? thanks - Boardwalk for $500? In 2007? Ha! Play Monopoly Here and Now (it's updated for today's economy) at Yahoo! Games.
[arr] Main Albeli: Zubeidaa
Rahmaniacs - After dwelling in Mangal Pandey, Bose and TLOBS, now I am musically drowned in Zubeidaa. The album is exceptional and has got innumerous number of elements to prove that ARR is truly a musical genius. I am totally bowled over by the orchestration of Main Albeli song. Really world-class touch and maintaining the tempo of period movie. The way in the song starts and the subtle effect of bass guitar throughout the song is outstanding.. Also, u would notice that the background score varies through various phase of the song, which is quite unconventional in ARRs songs.. what say??? -Thulasiram

[arr] Re: Itunes UK Top 10 for Chaiyya Chaiyya
really? somehow its not in the list.anymore --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Matthew Islam [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear all, A random bit of information I thought I you guys would like to hear. I was browsing through ITunes UK (Im a self confessed itunes junkie) and found out in the world music section that Chaiyya Chaiyya is at Number 7, in the top 10 charts. Now going by the logic that its 9 years since release and quite sometime after the Inside Man promotions, I was quite pleasently suprised. Outlasting industry logic this one. Cheers all! Matt
