[arr] A real challenge for A. R. Rahman: Soca / Calypso musiC

2009-11-21 Thread chup_ssshhh
Guys and girls,

Wouldnt it be a great challenge for A. R. Rahman to create real original soca 
calypso music (like Harry Belafonte, Lord Kitchener etc.). Man...that would be 
freakin awesome! Amitabh Bachchan did once a live performance 
on a soca calypso beat back in the 80's (I think)...not to forget the Gora 
nahin, Kali nahi  calypso like song.

We heared reggae from him...

Comeon A. R. Rahman.make music...make soca calypso music!!!

[arr] There are so many musical avenues to be explored, ” says Rahman

2009-11-21 Thread Vithur
Academy Award-winning composer and internationally renowned musician A.R.
Rahman makes his first foray into composing music for an American comedy
feature film with Universal Pictures’ forthcoming romantic comedy, 'Couples
Retreat'. The soundtrack will be released via Saregama India Limited
digitally and in all retail outlets nationwide on November 30th. For
'Couples Retreat', A.R. Rahman has conjured up the sounds of a tropical
island oasis fusing the laid-back rhythms of island music along with his
gift for creating golden melodies. The opportunity to work on 'Couples
Retreat' was a welcome challenge for Rahman who created a score that
complements the film’s light-hearted tone with a hint of his signature
“Indian” sound.

There are so many musical avenues to be explored,” says Rahman. “I’ve
wanted to try new things and for a long time and had hoped to have the
opportunity to venture into American comedy. This film presented a lot of
creative challenges and was deeply rewarding to be apart of. A.R. Rahman
captured the international spotlight after winning two Academy Awards for
‘Best Original Score’ for his work on 'Slumdog Millionaire' and ‘Best
Original Song’ for “Jai Ho” (Music by Rahman, Lyrics by Gulzar). Rahman also
became the first Indian artist to win a Golden Globe for ‘Best Original
Score’ and took home numerous awards including the Critics Choice Award, Los
Angeles Film Critics Award and a BAFTA for 'Slumdog Millionaire'. Rahman’s
score and soundtrack received critical praise from publications including
Rolling Stone, Time Magazine, The New York Times and The Los Angeles Times.

true artist who has redefined contemporary Indian music, A.R. Rahman is
an icon in the world of cinematic scoring. He has been hailed by TIME
magazine as the “Mozart of Madras” and was included in 2009’s TIME 100,
which profiles the world’s most influential people, as well as Fast
Company’s 100 Most Creative People in Business. He has also earned the
designation of being one of the world’s top 25 all-time selling recording
artists with sales of 100 million albums worldwide.

'Couples Retreat' is directed by Peter Billingsley and stars Vince Vaughn,
Jason Bateman, Jon Favreau, Malin Akerman, Kristin Davis, Kristen Bell and
Faizon Love. Based on an original idea of Vaughn’s, the comedy follows four
Midwestern couples who embark on a journey to a tropical island resort.
While one of the couples is there to work on their marriage, the other three
set out to jet ski, spa and enjoy some fun in the sun. They soon discover
that participation in the resort’s couples therapy is not optional.
Suddenly, their group-rate vacation comes at a price. What follows is a
hilarious look at real world problems faced by all couples. The film also
stars Kali Hawk and Jean Reno.

Listened to an interview with Bichu Thirumala (Malayalam, lyricist), in BIG FM 
today, He was telling that new age music lacks creativity, and said that every 
new MD's should learn from Devarajan (an old malayalam MD) and said Athippo 
ethu oscar winner aayaalum, allengil oscar verum pooskaar aayi pokum, meaning 
- Even if it is an oscar winner, they should learn it or Oscar will become 
Pooskaar. 
I am not sure when these veterans are going to learn to respect others, another 
incident where IR was not satisfied with the lyrics of his songs in

With due respect to these veterans I would say that everyone has the right to

!!wOw!!Wasim A Malik...Thatz great.Best wishes for your future 
planshope u will make some memorable movies in future
..
...ARR is the correct person who can give music for this movie..no one 
else..and if this is possible,this will be the all time greatest Indian musical 
movie... . ARR's acting is not possible as i mentioned... nobody wants to 
see ARR as another character,now me too..coz ARR is ARR in his humbleness and 
musical talent...nobody can give another name and character to ARR...

Re: [arr] A real challenge for A. R. Rahman: Soca / Calypso musiC

2009-11-21 Thread vedavid manick
I am from trinidad. This country is the birth place of the soca and calypso 
genres.
 
I am not a fan of soca at all, but have great respect in calypso. Would like to 
see Rahan do the calypso genre, it it unique, but must point out that what 
makes calypso in modern times inot so much the music but lyrics. so thats wher 
the true challenge lies.

Guys and girls,

Wouldnt it be a great challenge for A. R. Rahman to create real original soca 
calypso music (like Harry Belafonte, Lord Kitchener etc.). Man...that would be 
freakin awesome! ! !!! Amitabh Bachchan did once a live performance 
on a soca calypso beat back in the 80's (I think)...not to forget the Gora 
nahin, Kali nahi calypso like song.

We heared reggae from him...

Comeon A. R. Rahman.make music...make soca calypso music!!!

Thank you Vithur

I bet you must be an old member as well. I wish I could've joined this group a 
very long time ago. I hadn't known about this group until 2009, although I've 
been an ARR fan since 1993 - Maybe it's because I've been frequently using 
internet for last couple of years. Anyways, I'm proud and happy to become a

Re: [arr] Rahman, Resul Pookutty visit Ajmer dargah

2009-11-21 Thread manisha madhavan
A bit from Shekhar Kapur's blog on this experience :) :
AR Rahman and I at Ajmer Dargah Shariff of Hazrat Khwaja Muinuddin Chisti
I want to thank A R Rahman for taking me to Ajmer to visit The Dargah Sherriff 
of Khwaja Muinuddin Chisti. It was my first visit and going with AR Rahman made 
the visit even more amazing. It is very difficult and perhaps not right to 
write or express the feelings unless one has had time to live with them for a 
while.
Rahman and I were working in the music of Paani when on the way back to Mumbai 
I found myself sitting next to him on the flight when I had just said bye to 
him ! He was going to Ajmer and asked if I would come and of course I went. I 
saw that as a sign for the beginings of Paani.
My only regret is that I was not there for the early morning Qwaali.

Ajmer, November 21 (PTI) Oscar Award winners, musician AR Rahman
and sound technician Resul Pookutty visited the Dargah of Moinuddin
Chisty here today.


Accompanied by acclaimed filmmaker Shekhar Kapoor, the award winning duo 
offered a 'Chadar' at the shrine.

Rahman
and Pookutty who won the coveted Academy award for their work in the
film 'Slumdog Millionaire' said that there is need to start an
awareness campaign to clean up the religious places in the country,
including those in Ajmer.

They also took part in the
'Dastarbandi' ritual after which they went to Anjuman Office and saw
the 'Jhalra' water tank in the dargah premise.
