[arr] 'Bombastic' seems to be the oft-repeated description of The Golden Age score

[Gopal Srinivasan]

There is no denying the picture has a few stirring
scenes and images, but much of the film (and the actor's performances)
are hindered by a bombastic score from Craig Armstrong (who can be hit
or miss).

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/torontofilmfestival/2007/09/atonement-soars.html

The score also tends towards the bombastic in its more stirring passages.

Re: [arr] ARR copied Telugu pop song for Ottagathai Kattikko?

[Bhagavathi mohan]

Sarathy, hope you will control your tongue here...did i mail to the group?I 
dont know how my name is tagged to the post..  common man can understand that 
first few lines are inspired from Raj-koti album's song..As far as Vinods song 
which he posted..i m afraid its not atall related to the telugu song..it may be 
of similar raaga..some people who replied to this mail , despite posing 
themselves as diehard fans of rahman, they does not know that rahman worked 
under Raj-koti for 6 years.What is wrong if an assistant gets inspired from 
their mentors? Howerver I dont want to further get into to the details and dont 
want to reply to those people who are always mercurial and pugnacious in their 
behavior..Dear gops, Karthik never mentioned in itwofs that rahman copied 
Raj-koti ..then why did u put the word " COPY" for the inspiration

Ottagathai copied from "Kuyiline" is a very popular allegation in 
Kerala since Gentleman release days. But not many people are really  
convinced about the 'copy' allegation, though the first line of 
Ottagathai does have some similarity to Kuyiline.

with music by Raj Koti, seems to be the source of inspiration for  
Rahman's superhit Gentleman song, 'Ottakatha Kattikko'. The first 2

an arranger for other composers like Ilayaraja, Ousepachan and Raj 
Koti, so a connection cannot be ruled out as a coincidence. Plus, 
I'm not getting into a guessing game which points to Rahman 
composing this tune  originally for Raj Koti since that's merely a

Hi,

I donno if this is a rumour, this news was reported not jus by Dinakaran, but

Here's the scan...

[ for our non-tamil friends: The article says that ManiRatnam was ready to go 
on floors for Lajja, but Aamir became busy with Ghajini... so, When Rajni 
approached Mani, he agreed, and immediately came up with a story too There 
is an important character in the story and the article claims that Mani and 
Rajni have asked Kamal Hassan and got his nod for the 30 minute role in the 
movie!]

Re: [arr] Hollywood reporter on Rahman's music for 'The Golden Age'

[Ramesh R]

Apparently Variety's review has some scathing comments about the music-

 "Production
values most excel in the costume, makeup and hair departments, and
least excel in the musical score, which almost never takes a break and
bludgeons the ears in the worst modern manner."

,Can't find the Variety review online but the above was mentioned in

arr was just a keyboard player in his studio, I reckon. not his disciple.  i

[arr] It makes me remember

[rayrai2k]

Reading the posts I wish to tell the quote once I had told to myself. 
God is keeping quiet but followers fight in his name. The idol is
silent where fans argue. 
Also do remember the statement somebody had long ago said "If music is
the religion, ARR is the god". 
In this context I dont want to have a religion if it ends in a fight
or argument. At least not the one where ARR is the God and followers
fight. 
Its not true that ARR never credited IR. he has many times more than
anything he has told that he learn discipline from him. This statement
is long enough to praise IR.  If ARR has not been crediting lately it
depends on the context he feel. He has thought if we are good in
judgment he will be more better. The matter to accept IR as his guru
or not is his personal thing. 
As far IR commenting on ARR dont we fans ourselves do comment when we
dont like a portion of his music. Then what is wrong in IR commenting.
It has caused no harms. 
One thing I always liked about ARR and strive to follow is his concern
towards humanity and being always good, down to earth as far as I have
seen. Its very difficult to find a gem like him to an extent he is a
kind of saint to me.

[arr] A.R.Rahman makes India proud yet again

[oashajs]

 September 10, 2007
A.R.Rahman has again made India and especially Chennai proud. CNN, in
a special program, listed the world's best music directors and amidst
the big names of "Ennio Morricone" & "Hans Zimmer" Rahman managed to
find a place. CNN called Rahman the "Maestro of Madras" who has sold
albums more than the Beatles.

A R Rahman

The show also discussed his popular rendition for the "Lord of the
rings" stage drama. There was also mention about his first
international movie, Elizabeth 2, directed by Shekar kapur.

If the very fact of gaining mention in an international program is
big, then being compared with the likes of Ennio Marricone and Hans
Zimmer is nothing short of a Wow. Behindwoods.com salutes Rahman for
taking India to the world.

[arr] Kehna hi kya -- Sheer magic

[rayrai2k]

This song is one which always makes me wonder and discover new things
every time I hear. The instruments used might be no more than a bass
guitar, harmonium, tabla + chorus claps, Then 2 out of the world
voices Chitra + A R Rahman. Now dont ask whats more in it. every line
sung fetches an accolade to the composition. A kind not ever tried
earlier or later. This song is a treat to watch. The innocence,
passion, the feel all mixed so well. Did AR get a national award for
this movie???
One thing observed just before the interlude when AR sings the alap it
ends with another voice, wondering who it might be? MG srikumar or
Murtaza khan? any guess???

Re: [arr] Re: Arr...why is he not crediting Illayaraja

[sri ram]

arr was first introduced to mani by suhasini maniratnam,mani's wife.then mani 
discussed roja with arr and asked him to do an album as an audition.arr sent 
mani the album of roja to delhi within maybe one day and mani was so impressed 
he roped in arr.we all know mani worked with IR until dalapathy after which he 
had a tiff.
the point i'm making is, had mani known arr as an assosciate of IR,how does he 
hear about arr through his wife?arr worked with IR as a keyboard player while 
still a child and later went on to work with many other people.he was not 
assosciated with IR for that long that he needs to credit his music with IR.the 
music arr knows comes to him through his father Mr.R.Shekhar.

 so guys all due respect to the great IR,but does arr really need to credit him?

What has been irking me more than 'ARRahman not crediting IR' is 
'why 

IR has not been instrumental in bringing out ARR's talent to the 

world'. ARR has worked with IR for sometime, I would have expected IR 

to pass the mantle. Why it has to be a director Mani Ratnam who heard 

about Rahmans talent from word of mouth. Ofcourse a gifted talent 

like ARR is not going to be hidden away. I have been a fan of IR 

since 70s. I did not know much about the early years of ARR, as I 

myself came to know his greatness as late as 1996. I am not trying to 

stir up any contraversy, it is too late anyway, it is just something 

I have been wondering but not opened up.

[arr] Re: Arr...why is he not crediting Illayaraja

[nat_samy]

What has been irking me more than 'ARRahman not crediting IR' is 'why 
IR has not been instrumental in bringing out ARR's talent to the 
world'. ARR has worked with IR for sometime, I would have expected IR 
to pass the mantle. Why it has to be a director Mani Ratnam who heard 
about Rahmans talent from word of mouth. Ofcourse a gifted talent 
like ARR is not going to be hidden away. I have been a fan of IR 
since 70s. I did not know much about the early years of ARR, as I 
myself came to know his greatness as late as 1996. I am not trying to 
stir up any contraversy, it is too late anyway, it is just something 
I have been wondering but not opened up.

[arr] Prakash goes Rahman's way

[Shamil Sharif]

 
  Quite like his uncle A R Rahman, the young music composer G V Prakash, the 
new entrant to Tamil film music is also doing his composing songs during night 
times.
  Echoing Rahman, he says, “Night gives me a calm and serene atmosphere to 
work. Without any disturbance, I can get quality output during night times. I 
need perfect silence to produce quality songs”.

  Musical notes 
http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/mp/2007/09/08/stories/2007090851230300.htm

K.L. Sreeram is busy making a mark in the field of playback singing. He dabbles 
in all things musical 





Photo Vipin Chandran 
 
Versatile artiste K.L. Sreeram has made a mark as composer, singer and 
innovative musician 



Internationally reputed violinist Vanessa-Mae’s album ‘Choreography’ celebrates 
dance rhythms from around the world. Original pieces were created by renowned 
music directors, including A.R. Rahman. That piece had a strong Indian fla vour 
and more significantly a Malayali touch to it. The vocal arrangements were 
conducted by Palakkad K.L. Sreeram, who has made a mark as composer, singer and 
innovative musician.

“The recording took place sometime early 2004 at Rahman’s studio in Chennai. He 
was in London then and we played according to his instructions from there. I 
also sang some classical ‘alaaps’ in a few basic ragas. It is an 
instrumental-fusion album. The final mixing was done in the United Kingdom. The 
album was released in September that year,” recalls Sreeram, who got his big 
musical break through Rahman.

Getting into the Rahman stable was by chance. He had accompanied his wife Baby, 
a Carnatic vocalist, who was to sing a complex variation of a Madyamavathi 
piece. Sitting in the console room, Sreeram was biting his nails in 
exasperation. He could see Baby struggling to decipher Rahman’s instructions. 
Unable to stand the stress any longer, he asked if he could help Baby with the 
song. Sreeram’s detailed demonstration ended in energised singing. 
‘Taj Mahal’ 


What Sreeram did not realise was that the microphone was on all the time. 
Rahman, impressed by Sreeram’s singing, went on to punch the whole song. A week 
later Sreeram got a call from Rahman for his first film song, ‘Tirupaachi 
arivaala…’ in ‘Taj Mahal.’

A Calicut University Kalaprathibha, Sreeram has always been immersed in music. 
He played the flute and mridangam for concerts and other music programmes, did 
the ‘nattuvangam’ and vocals for Bharatanatyam, was a guest artiste at 
Kalamandalam, and composed ‘adavus’ and ‘jathis’ for dance. And then he moved 
from Palakkad to Chennai. He suddenly felt ‘unemployed.’

“I was frustrated at not doing anything and went in search of a job. 
Fortunately, I was introduced by one of my friends to music director Rajamani. 
He took me in to assist him in the re-recording of Keeravani’s film 
‘Pasavalai,’ which was going on in one of the studios. For the next 10 days I 
was doing what I loved most. And, I was being paid too. That was my first 
experience of playing for a film.” 

Sreeram’s debut song ‘Tirupaachi arivaala…’ went on to become a huge hit. Two 
more popular hits from Rahman followed but it also caused a lot of heart burn. 
Sreeram sang the Tamil version of the Sukhwinder Singh hit ‘Thaiya thaiya…’ in 
the film ‘Uyire,’ a remake of ‘Dil Se.’ 

“But when the audio cassettes were released it went with Sukhwinder’s name. I 
was crestfallen but decided to keep quiet about it. Corrections were made but 
it was late.” 

Then came the other blow. Sreeram’s song ‘Vettrikodi kattu…’ for the Rajnikant 
film ‘Padayappa’ turned into a smashing hit but the credit for this song went 
to Malaysia Vasudevan. “Vasu Sir was kind enough to go public and state that 
the song was sung by me. Rahman was furious and called up the company making 
the cassettes and asked them to make the change. When the CDs came out my name 
was there.”
Peppy numbers 


Sreeram has so far sung around 80 Tamil songs that include peppy numbers such 
as ‘Tirunelveli halwa…’ (‘Samy’), an innovative fusion number that had just two 
words ‘Love Check’ along with Sivamani’s drums from the film ‘Paathale 
Paravasam,’ some fast numbers like ‘Kannamoochi attam…’ from ‘Kannamoochi 
Yenada,’ and interesting duets like ‘Mundasu sooriyane…’ (‘Sandaikozhi’), 
‘Urranthotathula…’ (‘Veyil’) and Ulagame nee…’ (‘Ivan’).

In Malayalam, Sreeram has composed the music for ‘Mazhamega Pravukal’ and 
‘Melvilasam Shariyanu.’ “I’m not sure how the film fared but a couple of songs 
have become popular. One of them by S. Janaki, ‘Kanne kanmani…’ from my first 
film and a duet ‘Puzhapadum ee pattil…’ by Jayachandr

Re: [arr] Arr...why is he not crediting Illayaraja

[maddy maddy]

Nice to see some real Rahmaniacs.I hope everyone
remembers that "Thiruvasagam" by IR was released by
ARR and he just heaped praised on IR and about the
album. And as indicated, he has numerous times talked
about the "discipline" that he learned from IR.What
more you want, Do you want him to go and fall under
his feet and proclaim himself to be his disciple or
what?

  What do you think about ARR giving too many concerts in the recent 
past(the number has increased substantially in the current decade)?
Is it restricting his creativity in any sense? The fact remains that 
a lot of time is channelised for concerts in the form of rehearsals(a 
coupla months or more for a concert). Apart from the obvious 
advantages of performing live (monetary and reaching more people), 
would it be better if he dedicates more time composing music than 
merely recreating his own scores on stage?

Whats your say?

Re: [arr] Rahman's voice is fading : Ravindra Sathe ..

[Sarathy S]

These days it is not surprising, when some press or some other musician takes a 
hard or soft dig on ARR. Becuz there are fans here who call themselves as Arr 
fans & speak something here & work in other ways outside. I feel.., if we call 
ourselves as arr fans we should not indulge in givng any kinda opinions about 
rehman that give chance to anti-arr groups. Then there is no meaning to involve 
ourselves in a dedicated Arr forum. Let some anti-arr persons or press or 
website like itwofs who are for this speak such things on influence, 
inspiration, copy, lift, loop, sample, fading, ring master etc... Rahman fans 
  themselves be it seniors or juniors must not indulge in these things. Even if 
we come to 
   
  know we should hold silence or share privately & not like this to share in 
public either in this main forum for Arr or any other website/forum for that 
sake. imho that could be one way to be better fans of Rahman. This I can very 
much say after my experience in some forums, I see people who run other forums 
for their heros they never allowed posts from members that give little chance 
even to a soft dig on their heros. From telugu copy post, i came only to 
understand some guys did a team work on this. Whats the thrill in doing such 
acts & really this is going to disappoint die-hard fans of rehman. It only 
reflects even such members support certain views that are indirectly a soft dig 
on Arr, whether here or outside this forum...

Subject: [arr] Hollywood reporter on Rahman's music for 'The Golden Age'









  



"A musical score by Craig Armstrong and AR Rahman is virtually a

character itself, huffing and puffing through nearly every scene,

provoking tension and calling characters to action"

Re: [arr] Re: Arr...why is he not crediting Illayaraja

[Abdul Manaf]

Yes Thulsi, you are correct, IR is a legend, no doubt. I don't think he is 
arr's guru. ARR created his own style himself. Those who are hearing 
ARR's Songs can undertand that in his style of music there is no influence 
of IR. For me i like IR very much for his amazing work he did before ARR. But 
there were some unwanted statements occur from IR in 90s. I remember that when 
Kadhalan audio released, IR said that "Todays Super hits are like a bomb 
explosion" i think that it was against ARR. Today ARR encouraging all 
other musicians.
