Re: [arr] When you are number one, there WILL be a bullseye target on your back
Implying that ghazals are the only true form of music is very arrogant. I believe Jagjit Singh is just another opportunist having his 15 secs of fame in bashing Slumdog. Very obviously he has not heard the full umbrella of Rahman's compositions and expecting Rahman to cater to his genre is very demanding. Nobody asks Jagjit Singh to come out with a Carnatic, Rock or Hip Hop number. His main forte is ghazals and we dont demand him change, expecting Rahman to compose for every genre in the world overriding the theme in the movie is not practical.

It's the nature of the beast. Jealousy, envy, whatever it is. When you're the top of the game, THE top, you will have shots coming your way. It is to be expected. Rahman is the best. He is receiving lots of attention, praise, etc. The comments by Mr. Singh to me are not surprising given that I knew that one of these days, someone would open their mouth and say something negative about ARR. It was bound to happen. And it WILL probably happen again. Someone will speak to the media and say something sarcastic, or negative about Rahman, similar to what Ismail Darbar said about Rahman a few years ago. What bothered me about Mr. Singh's comments is that even if he didn't mean to attack Rahman himself, the way his comments came out sounded very accusatory and insulting, essentially saying, What Rahman has accomplished is really not that great given that he has not composed ghazals since ghazals are the ultimate and superior form of music. His tone was arrogant and of superiority. Why couldn't he have just said I would love for Rahman to compose ghazals since films today don't have a lot of them. Rahman is talented and versatile enough to compose ghazals. It is obvious that Mr. Singh has issues related to anger and bitterness over his life and the fact that he is not getting many film assignments. A person of his age and stature shouldn't be making such impulsive and blunt remarks. I would expect that from a junior artist or someone much younger. When people make such comments about how Rahman uses only Western tunes, did they ever hear his soundtracks such as Water, Earth, Lagaan, Bose? What about songs like Piya Ho, Naina Neer, Na Shiqua Hota, Mujphe Toofan, Sarfarosh Ki Tamanna, Desh Ki Mitti, Ghooparani, Tere Bina, etc. etc.? You would get the feeling that they think that Rahman only composes songs like Pappu all the time!! Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy! Go to http://messenger.yahoo.com/invite/

Ya Jaane Naa? This is the first feeling one got the moment the first look of this Aamir Khan production was out. Marking the launch pad of his nephew, Imraan Khan, Jaane Tu…Ya Jaane Naa seems to be another innocent love story in the offering sans any unnecessary mush, hence going truly with contemporary times. With pretty girl Genelia D'Souza opposite Imraan in this campus flick and A.R. Rahman as the composer, this Abbas Tyrewala debut directorial venture (he also doubles up as a lyricist here), JTYJN, is a promising flick arriving this summer. Does the music hold up to the promise? The answer is - Yes! Write your own music review of Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na First things first - when the best of the best of 2008 would be written down, the number 'Kabhi Kabhi Aditi Zindagi' would definitely find a mention. Crooned by newcomer Rashid Ali who is being introduced by Rahman on Bollywood musical arena, the song is beautiful from the word GO, the moment guitar strings mark the song's beginning. Rashid's voice is just perfect for an actor who is being launched in a youthful romantic entertainer and the singer utilizes the big platform to the fullest. While Abbas' lyrics go truly with contemporary times, it is a nice change to hear a Rahman composition in a truly mainstream cinema rather than the historical/period/ issue based films for which he has been creating music for quite some time now. In true Rahman style, he gets together a bunch of singers for the track 'Pappu Can't Dance'. Well, this is the track which is supposedly a spoof on Salman Khan's on and off screen image and has been making news in last few days. The song's beginning has a rhythm which has formed a part of the racy proceedings in the first teaser of Jaane Tu…Ya Jaane Naa that had kick started the film's promotion a few weeks back. Anupama, Benny Dayal, Blazee, Tanvi, Darshana, Satish Subramanium and Aslam come together to sing about this character called 'Pappu' who has seen all the riches in his life. Since the day he was born, he roams around in the best of the cars, has a body to die for, boasts of an impeccable style, but alas, can't dance to save his life. Hence the title - 'Pappu Can't Dance'. A fast moving fun song, which has a campus setting to it and also appears in a 'remix version', 'Pappu' is a song which should be fun when watched on the big screen. It's a new sound at the very beginning of 'Jaane Tu Mera Kya Hai (Aditi)' that hooks you on instantaneously. This very rhythm stays throughout this song which is crooned for the female character of the film, Aditi, by yet another relative newcomer Runa. If the song's haunting tune wasn't enough, the way Runa renders the track makes it one as the sad theme of the song conveys what the protagonist is going through. A number about a girl remembering the times gone by with the boy she loved, 'Jaane Tu' is composed in a style, which is similar to that of 'Zara Zara' [Rehnna Hai Terre Dil Mein] and hence can be expected to grow over a period of time. The song is later heard in a version meant for the film's male protagonist Jai and is titled 'Jaane Tu Meri Kya Hai (Jai)'. This time around the beginning is even more somber and takes it's own time to reach the stage where Sukhwinder Singh comes around to hold the center stage. The pensive mood is conveyed well yet again though this time around the version is even more somber. Guitar is at play once again in the number 'Nazrein Milaana Nazrein Churaana'. The best song to arrive after 'Kabhi Kabhi Aditi Zindagi', 'Nazrein' deserves to be the next song in line for promotion. Packed with youthful energy, the number has a Rahman stamp all over it and goes in perfectly well with the film's campus mood. In fact just one hearing and you are sure to carry the number along for your next camp fire outing. Yet again, it's an array of singers - Benny Dayal, Satish Chakravarthy, Naresh Iyer, Darshana, Shwetha, Tanvi, Bhargavi, Anupama - who come together but never once does one feels like trying to find out the singer

I was really glad hearing these awesome samplestill suddenly I heard a simmilarity between a sample song called Hip Harp and Munbe Munbe Vaa!!! I was really shocked, it was like A. R. Rahman used these samples but played them in adifferent range! it sounds like a complete lift! Even the beat measure of this sample is a clear copy of the rythm used by A. R. Rahman in Munbe Munbe Vaa!!! I like you guys to hear these samples, but pls give me a good link where i can upload these files. Warning : DO NOT GET SHOCKED HEARING THESE SAMPLES, THESE SAMPLES ARE MADE BEFORE A. R. RAHMAN'S MUNBE MUNBE VAA!!! I can say, that everybody uses samples, wheter they are beats or sounds. Every producers gets inspired by some samples. Even A. R. Rahman, the biggist composer of these times, uses samples in his music arts.

Re: [arr] Is it me or that snare too loud?
...now I hear it too - Original Message From: kaissiom [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2007 2:27:43 PM Subject: [arr] Is it me or that snare too loud? Hello Rahmaniacs, I was listening to Guru again, just like every other day. I know, I know, most people have moved on to Sivaji. I still have the hangover from Guru as I'm trying to absorb Sivaji. Wow, every song in Sivaji is so unique and like always slow poison. Well, going back to Guru, Tere Bina in particular. It's definitely one of the best ARR songs, plus him singing it puts it in another league completely. But if there is one thing I wish was different about the song is the snare beat. Although the use of snare itself is great, I find the pitch and volume of the snare a bit out of place. I'm not critisizing Rahman, because as a fan I have come to realize many a times that some of the unusual sounds in his songs are intentional. Only the master knows his work and all we could do is try to understand it. So, whether the snare bit there is intentional? I don't know. May be it was Rahman's decision, may be it was the work of the sound engineers. I'll never know. But I do know that I would have appreciated the song a tab bit more, if the snare hadn't been that loud. The song itself has a very hindustani/sufi elements to it, as it is inspired by Sajna tera bina by NFAK. The singing and instruments for the most part are also along the same lines, if there is one thing different about the mood of the song is the snare beat. The snare sounds like it is out of a pop/rock/english song. Again, that is intentional, I'm not surprised by that, it is Rahman after all, and in fact I feel it's great fusion. But I can't ignore the sharpness and volume of the snare that it sometimes sounds like some kind of timer ticking. And its volume level varies throughout the song. I feel as if it was added on top of the song after the whole song was done. It sounds great when it starts at 00:20 All of a sudden there's a sharpness/volume increase at 00:39 It goes through minor changes in between and gets completely dropped at 02:06 - The song sounds great without it. It re-enters at a moderate level again at 02:47 It is well-blended with the background beat between 03:00 and 03:58 Then you can hear it in varying degrees until the song ends. I'm not sure about anyone else, but I've had to turn the volume down during certain parts of the song due to the snare. I know what you are thinking, What is he doing complaining about the little things? Well, I'm a Rahman fan, and by definition it means that I do pay attention to and care about minute details in Rahman's songs. But another thing I know about myself is that I have very sensitive ears, I sometimes pick up sounds that most people in the room do not. And that could just be a contributing factor to the whole situation. So I was just wondering if anyone else felt the same way about the snare being loud or is it just me after all?

[arr] Start Movies interview...
Hi Everyone, Does anyone have Rehman's interview aired on Star Movies. It was right after Kadhalan was released. Probably the first Indian to be interviewed by Star Movies at that time. The interview was really great with Rehman doing a walkthrough of his compositions. I hope you guys have seenit. New Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. Call regular phones from your PC and save big.

[arr] Deja vu
A lot ofmessages have beenposted about how other composers "copying" rehman's tunes. I would not be that harsh to say the other composers copied the tunes. Here is my take on this.I have a feeling that when you listen to a song for a long time it kind of imbibes itself inside you. Then it starts reflecting in your work.Take Dus Bahane...(rocking number no doubt)but listen carefully to the openingbeats before the singer starts with 'here now;here now'. Now play taal se taal mila, listen to the humming after the initial water drop sounds. Voila we found a match.It would not be wise to sayVishal Shekhar copied these tunes. Its just that they are influenced by Rehman's songs so muchthat it starts showing up in their work. Hell if I started composing music tomorrow, it would be the same case. So most of the times if certainnotes are similar to a song composed by someone else - it is merely a deja vu. The other song is influencing your song in an indirect way. I would consider such songs as a compliment to Rehman's song rather than take out my knife and rip apart the composers. With all due respect composing music is the mostprecious talentwhich only few people are gifted with. So lets not drag down other composers just to prove our point. On the flip side, we also have some composers who copy songs noteby note. You cannot do much about them. Just stop buying their music.Here is some food for thought The tram sequence bgmfrom yuvawhichgoesas "anjaana anjaani" sounds like the spiderman theme song. You know the one that used to play in the cartoons. Now I doubt if anyone will raise a finger against Rehman.So just chill guys and enjoy the great music from the maestro. Yahoo!

Re: [arr] Re: Non-Musical Sounds in ARR's Work
Yup this a lot of funI got some of them+ Hiccups in "Koku Saiva Koku" from Muthu + Birds tweeting in the opening of "Kuluvalilay" from Muthu + Faint wind howling in the opening "Kaatre" song from Rhythm... + Watersounds in the opening "Kaatre" song from Rhythm...also in Karuthamma + Obviously how can one forget the train sounds which were immortalized in "Chaiyya Chaiyya" from Dil se + Crow croaks at the start of "Pettai rap" from KadhalanYou know when I go through this list, it seems that there is this small kid inside Rehman who is always trying to freak out and break away from traditions. I guess thats why he always refers to himself as a student who is always craving for new knowledge. anuja [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: i love this thread and the contributions have been precious so far! i think we should create a consolidated list and put it somewhere, maybe files section??1)has anyone already mentioned the bird sounds in margarhe poove from may madham?? also as my brother always mentions there is also a cricket sound (the insect) somewhere, but i personally have not been able to detect it so far, and its been 11 years..!2) also from may madham, the last song with gvprakash, palakataa machanikka had bottle opening sounds!3) 'only you' (vande maataram) had gentle thunder sound.im sure there are many more exciting ones!! have to go back and hear some suspect movies now!!:)--- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, krishna [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What about the songs of Rhythm.
