[arr] Universal appeal
Friends, i think VTV is in my recent memory one album that has been liked by most people. Unlike the previous albums where there have been people expressing how the album was a let down (at times after just 1 hearing or a 30 sec clips), there has been only praises from every quarters on VTV! No ones gonna be asking when's the next AR release for a while :) As Chord said, VTV is sure going to find it's place among the top 10 albums of AR sir. I'm glad Boss has silenced all those critics who said he doesn't care about Tamil industry. It's the quality that matters! If it's albums like VTV I'm ready to wait as long as it takes. While I've always loved the people, the sound of the language and the natural beauty of gods own country, it's my first time to be clued on to a Malayalam number. Thank you sir, it just sounds heavenly :) I can't decide which song is the best from the album. Every song seems the best for the 4-5 minutes I listen to it only to be replaced by the next track. Thank you Sir! 2010 couldn't have had a better start. Jai Ho! Srini

Re: [arr] was Rahman playing with free rhytm in VTV... Pls clear my doubt
Take the album Haazir, by Hariharanji and Zakir Hussain.. Most of the songs are in this pattern!

The vocal part’s beat and guitar/instrument part’s beats are completely different… I believe the vocal part by Karthik is in 6 beats…. And the guitar part from beginning to 1:58Min min is in 16 beats From 1:58 the song’s rhythm pattern is changing and the guitar from 1:54 to 2:11 is like freestyle (or I didn’t understand the beats of the guitar there) Again from 2:11 to 2:32 the guitar and vocal both are going in 6 beats and a perfect match… At 2:34 again the guitar going back to 16 beats and vocal same as 6 beats… and song ends in such way… Can someone knowledgeable person in Taal/beats clear the doubt or if you also find the same like me? However in Rabindra Sangeet (Tagore Songs) there are lots of songs having such contrast between vocal/instrumental arrangement which are deliberately created and called as ‘Poetic rhythm’ /’free-rhythm’ (Mukto-chondo in Bengali Rabindra Sangeet). In that case was Rahman playing with free rhythm in this song?

[arr] Re: Official video of VTV audio release (Magical unplugged versions)
Sanjay, My reply to Rivjot is relevant here so will paste it. Rivjot, I apologise for having to make you write what you called an unpleasent e-mail and hence spoiling your mood. That was not my intention. I understand that there are shortcomings in the way the current music industry functions and we all know that it is a global problem. However, I think it's very easy to point fingers. I currently do not live in an area/county in which I have access to tamil music, let alone Indian music. I have gone through what you have as well - the painful wait and trust me, I know the feeling. You know what I do now? I get my neice to buy me a CD when she gets her copy in India, and then she burns my CD and e-mails the mp3s to me. I am sure we all have some trustworthy friends/family who have access to instant markets and this is just one option. That way my thirst for wanting to listen to the music within hours of its release is taken care of and I get my copy of the CD by post in 5-10 days time. I get the added satisfaction of not having fed the pirates- that feeling just makes every soundtrack even more special for me. That's the least I can do for Rahman and the brilliant team behind his music. Where there's a will, there's a way. I strongly condemn piracy. It is stealing, although we don't like to admit to it. And we are not only just stealing music but we are also stealing people's livelihood. That's wrong. Just my two cents worth. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, sanjayshankar sanjayshanka...@... wrote: No, the preaching is not excused. You know what encourages piracy?? If the rights holder does not make enough CDs available, and on top of that prevents the 2 biggest online sellers of digital music from selling MP3s in one of the biggest markets, then I will download it. I have also pre-ordered the CD on Amazon, which will probably get it to me by February and so I WILL MOST DEFINITELY download it with a clear conscience. I also tried to buy from amazon.co.uk, but you can't do that from US because of 'geographical restrictions'. On top of all this, there's a stupid iphone app (a world first apparently.. in what? stupidity?). What about people not having an iphone / ipod touch?

Damn! Can we convince the organisers to release these tracks?! I am sure someone's ripping them as I type but the high quality version of the unplugged version is priceless. What do we have to do to get our hands on these gems? This soundtrack is growing on me. Mannipaye was an immediete draw for me and now slowly the other songs are growing on me. There's something magical about this soundtrack. Something. Cannot find the right words to describe the feeling.But there sure is something. I really hope this movie is all what we expect it to be. Good luck to the team! And please buy the CD folks. Please. It's sad to see people justifying listening to the pirated (read stolen) version with oh I am going to buy the CD anyway so it's alright to download the pirated version . That's really not the attitude we should be taking as responsible fans. The pirated market is thriving because of sentiments like this. Demand=supply. These videos remind you of the hardwork and passion that goes behind a soundtrack like this and how do we reward them ?By stealing their work. In my eyes, there's no difference between someone who only downloads pirated mp3s and someone who downloads pirated mp3s and then buys the CD. Both are equally guilty for creating demand for pirated music. These artists deserve better. And for those reputable music reviwers out there (likes of Karthik-milliblog etc), I humbly request you to not write up reviews based on stolen music. Please. It may not change your opinion of the soundtrack and that's not what I am concerned about- the concern is the fact that you are encouraging piracy. Excuse

Ok SENTHIL... U can now be the HAPPIEST PERSON!! The SONG is NOT at all a COPY!! Instead, the GUITAR in our song is played in a STYLE similar to it..

The SAME style can be seen in atleast 1000 songs today!! And I feel, AROMALAE is the BEST among them!! Always remember! ARR= 100% ORIGINALITY! He never RIPS OFF any hook or tune.. Instead, he gets influenced by a number, and creates another COMPLETELY ORIGINAL piece in that genre! The BEST example (I QOUTED this atleast a 100 times in this group), is the CHANDRALEKHA song from THIRUDA THIRUDA(1993). ARR was influenced by Michael Jackson.. But, created a NEW and COMPLETELY ORIGINAL song, in that GENRE, which became the BEST song ever created in that GENRE!!

[arr] Pick of VTV for me ? Aaromale !
This song has that typical ARR touch, SMOOTH JAZZ style and totally unstructured composition with a touch of melancholy..freaky stuff ! Other songs may become hit with the listeners but Aaromale has THAT ARR touch and I am happy that he included it in this album. Guruji ki Jai HO ! Best regards Dinesh Vaidya Pune

ARR has used this technique many times before, and I love it. Forget this technique.. Even otherwise also, ARR had been modifying natural vocals to add beauty to the song! Eg: Mg Sreekumar's vocals in Chinna Chinna MAzhaithuli(En Swasa Katre), YESUDAS's vocals in Pachaikiligal(Yesudas did not like it! It was controversial then) etc.. But all of these experiments brought out MINDBLOWING results!! Remember SHANKAR MAHADEVAN's UPPUKARUVADU??? Sadhana Sargam, Mahalaxmi Iyer, Shankar Mahadevan, Kavitha Krishnamurthy, Hariharan, Madhushree, Minmini all sound the BEST in ARR songs! Why?? Because, ARR makes a lot of modifications to the originally recorded voice!! From his early albums, ARR had been using techniques like DUAL/MULTI Tracking, Vocal Echoes, layer-cropping etc.. and ALL of them, TILL today have yielded the BEST results!!

Re: [arr] Re: Winners: Bollywood Hungama Surfers Choice Music Awards 2009
Not at all suprised at this. Pritam creates music for the masses and so the masses would love and vote for it. The music Rahman creates on the other hand, while having mass appeal, often requires that one listens to it a couple times. It is deeper and has soul. Pritam aims at mass appeal, and this requires an instant catchy tune or line or beat. Congrats to Pritam. When it comes to mass appeal, he is on top. When it comes to soul and depth, that is Rahman's forte, and it is where pritam needs to work harder. --- On Sun, 1/17/10, Jahanzeb jahanzebti...@yahoo.com wrote: From: Jahanzeb jahanzebti...@yahoo.com Subject: [arr] Re: Winners: Bollywood Hungama Surfers Choice Music Awards 2009 To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday, January 17, 2010, 5:53 AM this is totally un-understandable to me why people voted for APKGK. to me it is totally ridiculous.

[arr] Pure Bollywood, but the message is serious
http://www.smh.com.au/news/entertainment/music/pure-bollywood-but-the-message-is-serious/2010/01/17/1263663016537.html ure Bollywood, but the message is serious * * Email * Printer friendly version * Normal font * Large font Story to tell ... the Oscar-winning megastar A.R. Rahman captivated the 70,000-strong audience in Parramatta on Saturday night with a spectacular musical show. Photo: James Alcock A.R. RAHMAN Parramatta Park, January 16 MORE than a concert, this was a gesture: A.R. Rahman performed for free as an affirmation that the friendship between Australians and Indians cannot be fractured by moronic and violent element. These sentiments were echoed by the Premier, Kristina Keneally, in launching the concert. She then welcomed to the stage that most popular of Australians in India, the former Australian cricket captain Steve Waugh, who eloquently expressed his own distress at the violence. He went on to describe Rahman as the Sachin Tendulkar of music. Given that Tendulkar may be the second finest batsman in the game's history, that is to somewhat overstate Rahman's significance (as does his ''Mozart of Madras'' tag), but Waugh's good-natured words were enthusiastically received. Rahman was rapturously welcomed by what was probably the largest gathering of Indians ever seen in Australia, among the 70,000-plus crowd. His international recognition results from having composed the score for the multiple Oscar-winning movie, Slumdog Millionaire. His success in India was already stupendous, built upon albums, concerts and soundtracks. His appeal lies in an ability to cross and mix genres and clearly he is a gifted composer and singer. But what emerged on the night was largely trite pop music made into dance spectaculars via dozens of colourful, cavorting bodies, a vast lighting rig and even fireworks. Visually it became an apotheosis of kitsch, rather like Olympic opening and closing ceremonies. But that's Bollywood. Meanwhile, my internal organs were being rearranged courtesy of the force of the bass end of the PA - something of no concern to a four-year-old girl in front of me, who danced happily throughout, and had all the moves. Rahman was only an intermittent star of his own show, often leaving the stage to the huge cast of singers, dancers and expert musicians, and occasionally leaving the trivial for a fleeting taste of the sumptuous tradition of Indian classical music, somewhat diluted. The arrival of the forecast showers did little to dampen the crowd's excitement, which grew to hysteria when the big hit Jai Ho ( Victory to You ) was finally unleashed. The music may largely have been trifling, but the message was vital. The violence is reprehensible; the friendship must be lasting.

Instead, the GUITAR in our song is played in a STYLE similar to it.. The HOOKS are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT and ORIGINAL!!! It was Roger Waters who introduced this style, and we had THANKED him in FORUMS, when VTV released!! I hope u missed the posts! The SAME style can be seen in atleast 1000 songs today!! And I feel, AROMALAE is the BEST among them!! Always remember! ARR= 100% ORIGINALITY! He never RIPS OFF any hook or tune.. Instead, he gets influenced by a number, and creates another COMPLETELY ORIGINAL piece in that genre! The BEST example (I QOUTED this atleast a 100 times in this group), is the CHANDRALEKHA song from THIRUDA THIRUDA(1993) . ARR was influenced by Michael Jackson.. But, created a NEW and COMPLETELY ORIGINAL song, in that GENRE, which became the BEST song ever created in that GENRE!! Even MJ was a fan of the song..and the legend too never came up with a song matching CHANDRALEKHA' s grandeur!! MJ was a LEGEND! ARR is the LIVING LEGEND!!

Re: [arr] was Rahman playing with free rhytm in VTV... Pls clear my doubt
Kishore.. I got your point but that is a different example... where table is being played in a faster speed to match a different beat sung by vocalist... for example... when vocalist is singing a phrase of 8 beats 3 times... tabla player is playing 6 beat taal faster 4 tines to be matched the rhythm which exactly happened in Hazair or Hariharan's another album 'Dil Nasheen'...and it will be a regular stuff in any Hindustani classical concert But in VTV it's not like that guitar is not being forced to match the rhythm of singing... both are going in their own different flow the beats are not matching mathematically but still sounding good enough and it's very hard to sing such somg LIVE which Karthik did beautifully in launch venue Arijit 2010/1/17 kishore parayath kishore.paray...@gmail.com Take the album Haazir, by Hariharanji and Zakir Hussain.. Most of the songs are in this pattern! On 1/17/10, Arijit Debnath arijit...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, I was just surprised after lots of hearing of the title track of VTV sung by Karthik…. The vocal part’s beat and guitar/instrument part’s beats are completely different… I believe the vocal part by Karthik is in 6 beats…. And the guitar part from beginning to 1:58Min min is in 16 beats From 1:58 the song’s rhythm pattern is changing and the guitar from 1:54 to 2:11 is like freestyle (or I didn’t understand the beats of the guitar there) Again from 2:11 to 2:32 the guitar and vocal both are going in 6 beats and a perfect match… At 2:34 again the guitar going back to 16 beats and vocal same as 6 beats… and song ends in such way… Can someone knowledgeable person in Taal/beats clear the doubt or if you also find the same like me? However in Rabindra Sangeet (Tagore Songs) there are lots of songs having such contrast between vocal/instrumental arrangement which are deliberately created and called as ‘Poetic rhythm’ /’free-rhythm’ (Mukto-chondo in Bengali Rabindra Sangeet). In that case was Rahman playing with free rhythm in this song?

[arr] Slightest clue
Hi guys, Just finish watching Koffee with Anu. This time around, the guest was Gautham and Simbu. Gautham gave some slightest clue regarding MD for his future project(s). So, I believe that he will work with ARR more after this. Infact, he mentioned that he is comfortable working with ARR. I believe that it was not a diplomatic statement; it was a sincere one. Moreover, he realized that the reach of the VTV music is universal and people who does not know the lyrics, now listen to the songs. In my opinion, he captures the mood of the songs by minute detail and present them beautifully. I'm sure many would agree with me. Hopefully, this combo continues. If anyone in this group knows Gautham, please let him know that the fans are looking forward for him to work with ARR again. Regards, K.Gobi

[arr] ARR Scoring for a Disney Movie
You know, watching that old clip of ARR when Roja came out and hearing H. Shridhar's comments on how AR's music is theatrical really struck me. The word theatrical is really a good, broad descriptive term to describe many of ARR's compositionsmostly recently Mannipaya being a great example of such a style and structure. The songs Mannipaya or Dil Ka Rishta from Yuvvraaj nicely fit the theatrical descriptor and further remind me of how much potential and scope AR would have in scoring for a Disney movie, whose soundtracks are very much in line with a song like Mannipaya or Dil Ka Rishta. The English song that AR scored for the movie Kisna...is also a great example. If a Disney Director ever picked up ARR for composer for one of their splendid animation movies, for example, I think they would be extremely happy with the results, and I could totally see AR doing a fantastic job with the music. Hope it happens someday. Just my opinion.
[arr] Here is a posting I really like
This is from someone else on another website: On behalf of the millions of fellow ARR fans around the globe, I would like to set some things straight here. Firstly, I sincerely appreciate the annoyance that has been poured in the form of words in this forum regarding the musical output of VTV, which I must say is quite acceptable considering the fact that ARR fans or to say musical junkies like us weren't exposed to the brilliance of innovative song structuring or abstract forms of musical forms in Tamil music circuit. What ARR has done here is an absolute never-before heard style of structuring that is very new to the listeners, so it takes time to sink in to the brilliance of his work. Moreover the 2 year gap, added to the combo of Gautam-ARR has created a huge huge expectation on the lines of VA or KK. I think that is outlandishly silly. ARR is one who is always on the lookout for innovation and strives to give something new to the otherwise ordinary-run of the mill-listener who gets content with the thumping beats and silly lyrics. When I first heard VTV I was hugely disappointed, a feeling that has never occurred to me after listening to an ARR album. But after repeated hearing, I understood and began to trace out the intricate layering and the shear brilliance of innovative structuring of the genius. This is one of the best tamil film soundtracks ever. I cannot force or preach about the music, it all depends on the individual to embrace it or sink in to the usual. Cheers.

Re: [arr] Here is a posting I really like
Hey chord, from which site did u read this post?? --- On Mon, 18/1/10, ichord purev...@yahoo.com wrote: From: ichord purev...@yahoo.com Subject: [arr] Here is a posting I really like To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Date: Monday, 18 January, 2010, 7:52 AM This is from someone else on another website: On behalf of the millions of fellow ARR fans around the globe, I would like to set some things straight here. Firstly, I sincerely appreciate the annoyance that has been poured in the form of words in this forum regarding the musical output of VTV, which I must say is quite acceptable considering the fact that ARR fans or to say musical junkies like us weren't exposed to the brilliance of innovative song structuring or abstract forms of musical forms in Tamil music circuit. What ARR has done here is an absolute never-before heard style of structuring that is very new to the listeners, so it takes time to sink in to the brilliance of his work. Moreover the 2 year gap, added to the combo of Gautam-ARR has created a huge huge expectation on the lines of VA or KK. I think that is outlandishly silly. ARR is one who is always on the lookout for innovation and strives to give something new to the otherwise ordinary-run of the mill-listener who gets content with the thumping beats and silly lyrics. When I first heard VTV I was hugely disappointed, a feeling that has never occurred to me after listening to an ARR album. But after repeated hearing, I understood and began to trace out the intricate layering and the shear brilliance of innovative structuring of the genius. This is one of the best tamil film soundtracks ever. I cannot force or preach about the music, it all depends on the individual to embrace it or sink in to the usual. Cheers.

Re: [arr] There was a small rain during calicut concert
Why not..!..that was before the chain songs right?. That time audience were silently listening the song. Its sure that rain was streight from god without disturbing listeners.

Any suggestions would help. The clips are over 10 minutes, so YouTube is not an option. I will try again to load the files in viddler which seemed to work for everyone.
