remix & got disappointed it was told whats d need to refer abt it was 
said as the 1st one to post dd interview still dont feel bad abt not getting 
feedbacks & why worry but lately stopped everyone by force to give 
feedbacks for some other post last & digging pple who was not mainly for 
it...  again feedbacks needed for another rare interview... it has 
become one's own choice for feedbacks what they shld give & what they shld not 
give... i m also disappointed when it was told abt parsuram-hindi songs as 
horrible.. despite that, it cld have been shared only abt the trax titles &

Re: [arr] Rarest of Rare videos of AR Rahmans studio..Panchathan inn (1995)

[Sarathy S]

 
  thnx mohan. atlast u surprised with this rarity. i should not leave 
without appreciating this. jus for info seems rajshri who had dd-surabi 
vdeos are not allowing members to post them independently for copyrights issue 
for its for some dollars & like ur stand, i also prefer to see chinmayee to win 
filmfare award for munbe vaa in SOK.. when north indian mds could not 
give more offers to south indian singers, why should these MDs again n again 
call them when we have our own best talents. becuz of this our singers lose 
awards & due credits. in the end only north indian singers take 
awards/credits both on behalf of hindi & regionals. thats why a dig on 
certain ARR singers nothing more when felt disappointed about these talents 
who are not taken for consideration anyone could post details about 
parsuram-one man army hindi songs & singers not the audio files but trax 
titles & singers. thnx & bye.

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

[Sarathy S]

 
  Dear Gopal & Kartik
   
  Kindly putting here i am not in the intention of hurting anyone. It is itwofs 
right to put its views. similarly its gopal's right to put his views. i have no 
right in them. But as rehman fan i m disappointed about members where they 
stand & how they behave some advises me but for other members.. when 
other member by user name chup_ssshhh (composer) got munbe vaa loop/sample 
source proof here just months back.., how many members pounced on him just 
bcuz you pple did not like that pointing out & even i quoted abt a builders 
example for that, but what abt you r going to answer to that member to see 
this situation now...? who has to be advised now ? if there is something not 
wrong abt a song mean why that song had to be dragged in & pple see its 
negative part than +ve part... after all we could talk this only in rehman 
group rehman himself feels other way abt such views and i end this 
topic with a BIG SORRY
   
  

Vinod Raju <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
   
  
Karthik/Sarathy and others,

I, as most Keralites, have lived with this allegation of Ottagathai-
Kuyiline connection, ever since Gentleman hit the stores. It does 
sound similar in the opening lines from "ottagathai" to "Pottukkaari", 
but I really cant call this a copy like the enormous songs listed in 
Karthik's site are (same applies to the Telugu song connection too).

And if you still call this a copy, then that opens a Pandora's box, 
and 1000s of songs by every MD in India also would have to find a 
place in itwofs. (A certain Tamil MD who came as a "lightning" should 
find all his songs listed in itwofs against another ARR song, if thats 
the case) ;-)

Anyway, What goes into itwofs or not is completely Karthik's 
discretion, and I dont think anybody has any right to say anything or 
question Karthik on that. 

Also, Telugu version of Gentleman released long time back 
and "Kontegadni Kattuko" was a smash hit in AP as in other parts of 
India too. I just cant understand how nobody would miss this "copy" 
all these years. (especially since the Telugu album is said to be a 
super hit album of early 90s - it sold 8 lakh cassettes as per a 
website. Probably more than Gentleman sold in AP. So, no obscure song 
this!)

This also reminds me of another old allegation that "Varayo Thozhi / 
Kehne ko Dadi" resembling "O mere Sona Re". 
ARR himself had answered this in his Filmfare interview in Aug 99. 
(pasting it below)

Q: Have you ever lifted a tune?
ARR: "Not intentionally. But there was some strings of melody in a 
song of Jeans which I was told sounded much like Mere sona re (Teesri 
Manzil). I don't know how it happened,it was inadvertent...maybe 
R.D.Burman's tune was lingering somewhere at the back of my mind".

And to end this rather large mail, please allow me to quote what 
Karthik himself posted in Dec 05 in this very same group. 
(http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/arrahmanfans/message/58711)

"And ultimately, its only your belief that, as a person, Rahman is 
honest, that is being questioned."

And that should explain the reaction and angst of Sarathy and the 
1000s of other silent members of this group. 

Hope we can end this topic and move on to discuss better things in 
this group.
Any idea when ATM is releasing? Anybody? :-)

Thanks and regards,
Vinod

[arr] ARR : I wont say its my fault (replies for inspirations)

[Sarathy S]

 
  Arr replies for special audiences in recent interview "walk the talk for 
ndtv" : after 16:45 he clearly puts his view... [pple are so much into the 
stuff & they consume that so much, the moment u use the same instrument or even 
same kinda phrasing.. they feel "O i got it... it sounds like that" 
..they so sensitive to sounds " i wont say its my fault..." its the 
sensitiveness problem.. explains : if we use that trend they dont even 
think & they wont even see something abt melody he give is different & takes 
time for pple to understand sounds...] which means Arr sticks to that point 
pple dont realise what he give is entirely different in creative aspect.." 
but audiences get into wrong scrutiny coming to conclusions O it sounds 
like that." & not coming forward to appreciate the entire aspect of 
creativeness.
   
  http://www.ndtv.com/convergence/ndtv/videopod/default.aspx?id=16843 
   
  (P.S. : In what other better way he could express about how he feels about 
audiences' wrong judgements in the case of inspirations, copy etc that 
audiences lack to realise the whole creativity around which sounds given / 
instruments used are totally different)

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.

song, 'Eddem Ante Teddam Antav', from the album 'Chik pak chik bam', 
with music by Raj Koti, seems to be the source of inspiration for 
Rahman's superhit Gentleman song, 'Ottakatha Kattikko'. The first 2 
lines' flow, that is, nothing more. And, considerably spruced up in 
Rahman style, of course! I recall reading Rahman's apprenticeship as 
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 
conjecture! Thanks to Amith Chandran and Bhagavathi Mohan for the 
info! The full Telugu song is available in CoolToad, here.

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] 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...

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

Rahman style, of course! I recall reading Rahman's apprenticeship as 
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 
conjecture! Thanks to Amith Chandran and Bhagavathi Mohan for the 
info! The full Telugu song is available in CoolToad, here.

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

[Sarathy S]

 
  hey anish from counter 8:40 note & at 8:45 he mentions Ilayaraja :-)  and 
when he spks about 60s & 70s mainly not much of IR at that time. End of 70s was 
start of IR... & Arr had mentioned many times about IR as one of his 
mentors & playing keyboards to him in his career initially before shining as 
composer. Arr also invited his son-composer YSR to use his new studio.  As 
thulasi ram said we find hard to remember if IR mentioned anywhere about ARR on 
the
   
  context of giving credits ? like... "I am proud to see Arr one of my players 
once & now reaching heights globally" :-(  if anyone find any article even old 
news, where IR mentions just a word about Arr, kindly post it here to make our 
statements false. That does not indicate we are anit-IR. We respect all MDs, we 
have many favorite songs of IRs & other MDs too. But it is between composers 
when comes to acknowleding each other raise our eyebrows ? Why is this 
hesitation & lack of broadmind to speak out things ? i loved Arr mainly in 
   
  this interview how he cleverly handled to speak about bollywood. Arr also 
frankly states, listening to hindi only after roja days & in this interview 
Rehman surprises us without using his very own word "Stuff" anywhere. he wins 
in this word play game "vArththai vilaiyAttu" by not using "Stuff" & 
interestingly the host, Srinivasan jain used this word (Stuff) many a time ;-)

In the interview with NDTV...arr seems to credit alot of old

Illayarajai am sure there have been alot if stuff he learnt from 
IR.Maybe he should also credit Illayaraja evenly. Talking abt names 
like visha shekar and shankar eshan loyi would have been glad if 
he would have rather said something abt ilayaraja where in terms of 
class..he is far apart from many composers in the 80s.

Comeon...afterall...our boss came from illayaraja school When Gangai 
Amaran brother of illayaraja can credit arr...why not our boss? Boss 
should really speak abt IR in some intervoews and the days when they 
were working together.

Re: [arr] Concerts and Compositions

[Sarathy S]

 
  Apart from marketing facts, i believe in Arr's secret dreams to make a mark 
in mainstream hollywood movies. Only these concerts led him to perform in 
hollywood bowl last year which no other indian composer bagged such credit. 
There was a near chance & when we read news post HW bowl concert, those 
producers talking about having an ARR concert for this year's Oscar Awards 
though not happened but it was in news. I donno when will it happen but could 
see a brighter perspective somewhere he is going to use his magic in HW movies 
one day as main composer through his first step as co-composer in the golden 
age- elizabeth now. His positive side is, observes, learn & uses world music 
effortlessly, he is flexible & easily moves with all western 
composers/musicians whether famous or unknown. With this kinda Arr's mind set, 
body language & strong influence of world music, many westerners (musicians & 
composers) understand his vast music skills, willing to work with him be it in
 studios or stage concerts. With all hard efforts Arr is really a god blessed 
person :-) 
   
   
  
Caran <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
  
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?_.___

  Hi all,

As I promised, I am back - with tidbits shared by Sujatha, Karthik and Raihana 
on Rahmania show
(I'm writing all of these from my memory, so, pls excuse any inaccuracies)

Karthik:

  "I was such a big fan of Rahman sir, I never even dreamt that i could become 
a playback singer, let alone singing in Rahman sir's music. Singer Shrinivas is 
a relative of one of my friends, and thru my friend i got to meet him. I really 
wanted to meet him, because he is closely associated with Rahman At that 
time, I thought 'i donno if i can ever meet rahman sir, It would be great to 
meet someone who has closely interacted with him'!!
But, Shrinivas sir asked me if i could sing, and he asked me to give a cd with 
my voice, and he passed it on to ARR... almost a year later, Shrinivas sir 
called and told me that I needed to go to ARRs studio... I couldnt believe it.. 
it was for a harmony part... It was great!!"

"I have sung harmony for many songs, including the latest 'sana nana... ma mana 
nana' bit in Adhiradi (Sivaji). Tippu, Devan, I and others used to have great 
fun during the harmony recordings... Even a year after I first sang for ARR, he 
used to get confused between me and Tippu, and often used to refer to me as 
Tippu!!! He would want tippu to sing a part again, but would say  'Karthik, 
please sing it'... and i would start off... and he woud say 'oh... i meant 
KARTHIK' but pointing to TIPPU!! It was great fun"

"Even after singing so many songs as the lead singer, I still long to sing 
harmonies for him...It is a whole new learning experience.. Each time I work 
with him, especially for harmonies, i learn a lot...Even recently I called up 
Rahman sir and asked him if there are any songs for which I could join in the 
harmony..."



That's pretty much what I found really interesting about ARR, from Karthik's 
interview...  I will write excerpts from Sujatha's interview in my next mail...


Cheers,
Aravind

correctly, lets forget it for human errors. That does not mean music lovers 
cannot identify voices just becuz of wrong names. they know it better. & We are 
here to welcome all, to offer chances to others voluntarily, to give space &

Re: [arr] ATM : Kaettu rasittha pAdal Ondrai....(kumar shan)

[Sarathy S]

 
  hey kumaresh nothing wrong.. yes there r more people to enjoy & dance for 
those songs & have fun of it & rehman had been giving some kuththu songs from 
his first movie roja... rukumani rukumani song. (unless it is of period 
films) & he presents it in different way some of his kutthu songs comes 
with folk beat & some of it wear modern look with western beats.. 
vusilampatti song from gentleman / mAnA madhura ooh la la la...  from minsara 
kanavu / veerapAndi kOtaiyilae from thiruda thiruda / katheerikka from duet / 
chinnamma chilakamma from meenaxi. the list goes on to godfather (varalaru) 
to guru (maiyya maiyya song though arabic influence it also comes into kutthu 
genre only).. as pawan said it is branded as item song in bollywood (missed to 
mention one famous family kuththu non-arr song - kajra re - bab). v can 
also count bangra type as punjabi kutthu songs & dandiya as gujrati 
kutthu... what about qawwali fast beats ? :-) though in all these
 varieties, lyrics may be taken granted for different situations...
   
  

kumar shan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Dont you know that some ppl are commenting on ARR says that, Rahman only knows

genres of music.

Re: [arr] Walk the Talk ....Rahman on NDTV (yes manafcp)

[Sarathy S]

 
  Yes manaf  :-)  i noticed rahman quoting more about his favorites. Obviously 
everyone here knew this 'walk the talk' program must have happened when rehman 
was in bombay to launch jgm dvds (before Aug.15th) with those many interviews 
we saw... & i meant to say ndtv releasing now only on 7th sept. to say it is 
new interview & not something we missed to catch it now. Arr nicely pointed 
out, about 60s & 70s is a golden era not just for kollywood or tollywood or 
bollywood but everywhere in the world when considering world music too... Arr 
perfectly said a big vibration in world all over during 60s-70s to get all new 
music. really something to cherish & to be appreciated about those many 
legends in music in every part of world who created their tunes without much 
guidance from their seniors & without technology, gadgets n all they able 
to create songs that are still green n liked by all & long lasting.. they 
became the guiding force to next set of composers in
 80s & so on & now technology took over the lead at the same time quality 
of music & creativity too leading in every genre be it classical music or film 
music or non-film, though there are some composers who could not come with more 
creativity.

[arr] CGMs Talent Hunt - Wake up Fans - No dullness

[Sarathy S]

hi Avinash :-)
   
  I welcome your idea of own hindi lyrics from members here for sivaji songs. 
hey i dont know much of hindi, otherwise jumped into it by now to your friendly 
call & really feeling for your dullness. Another idea as small competition to 
group, why cant many young musicians & techno wizards & talents here try your 
hands on creating CGMs (creative ground music) like bgms & post here by using 
youtube videos of your choice. Hope you know to download them using 
youtubex.com by pasting video's url. Convert flv to wmv formats. Using windows 
movie maker mute video sound & create your own sounds or using rehman bgms & 
tunes from songs mix it. Or let us post a video & rahmaniacs, 
   
  talented here can come forward to create sounds for that particular video be 
the sounds of their own or of rehmans bgms & upload in their youtube a/c. & 
post here. Members can come forward to rank the cgms & i ve given here some 
four chilling videos & invite talents to give their CGMs to their choice, out 
of these four links below. Come on plse give a try. Like this band talent hunt 
lets all conduct CGMs talent hunt among members to see their creativity or if 
not these, any other youtube videos you wish to create music & post here. 
Active members kindly come forward to encourage such ideas better to get into 
some fun. I can only support, enjoy & share your works with others & know 
nothing about these indepth mixing, technology etc... etc...
   
  1) no sound
  http://youtube.com/watch?v=1LjG7S8aqJg 
   
  2) no sound
  http://youtube.com/watch?v=h1FivamFXms 
   
  3) this link has apt wonderful music but can you enhance the bgms ?
  http://youtube.com/watch?v=s7GadUhRFyk
   
  4) no sound

Re: [arr] Rahman delaying Jodha Akbar?

  v shld not take press news 4 granted... we dont know xactly wats d reason 
4 delays... even if rehman b one of factors it is usual as far as rehman is 
concerned & d world knows it about rehmans working pace. not just now but 
right 4m d beginning of his career & so it shld not b new r unxpected abt 
rehman time. they find convenient to point @ rehman as he is also 
involved in this project. bcuz he is man of few words. he is not going 
to take seriously such things 4 his nature is very kind approach 2 pple. & 
they will do it only to rehman.. if some others in dat unit r also cause 4 
such delays dat wont b blown out this much

  AR Rahman tells Myleene Klass of CNN about evolution of music in Indian films 
  Do you think the use of music in Bollywood films has become slightly more 
sophisticated? 
Yeah, there is a film called 'Rang De Basanti' which also was the official 
entry from India for Oscars, and this film, when I was doing it, I never knew 
that the music would reach so many people across the globe. 
  report continued below

  •'BJP is the outsider in UPA-Left marriage' more » 
  •UPA-Left mechanism on deal likely this week more »
  •Probe ordered into Mayawati's profile on Orkut more »
  more »

  The songs were lip synced, just used like a background, but it seemed to 
blended well with the screenplay and the story. So I think it clearly proved 
that the people are changing and they are looking forward to more sophistic and 
non cliché stuff. 
  Was there a growing division, do you think, between films, between Indian 
films that are favoured by rural audiences and urban audiences?
I think the line is becoming thinner and thinner, really, because, unlike a 
couple of decades ago where people didn't know anything about the happening 
outside. Now people know what it is that Hollywood and Chinese films are made 
of. This influences people and so filmmakers are compelled to do stuff which is 
world class. 
  I can see that the past six years a massive change has happened and there are 
extraordinary filmmakers who are evolving. 
  What do you think are the qualities of a truly great composer? 
One needs to transcend somebody by even if it is just one instrument theme. And 
now the challenges of the composers are much more as its not just about 
composing a great theme. One needs to know recording, production and how to 
intertwine music with the movie. 
  And with Indian films it is an even greater challenge, because we need to be 
like a Michael Jackson or John Williams, Hans Summer and an Indian folk 
composer and put all of them together. So they expect finesse and they expect 
versatility.

  I got free tickets for Sonu Nigam's concert this past Saturday and
thought the arrahmanfans group might be interested in some ARR related
news from the concert.

The concert started with a cover version of Roobaroo from Rang De
Basanti. The cover was performed by the accompanying musicians and not
by Sonu. This version was not bad but was let down by the lead vocalist.

Sonu Nigam performed two of Rahman's compositions - Saathiya from
Saathiya and Satrangi Re. Both the performances were impeccable
singing wise. Before starting Satrangi Re, Sonu mentioned that in
spite of singing a huge number of songs in career, that this song
remains a favourite. Once the song was completed, Sonu Nigam received
a standing ovation from a few and chants of Sonu, Sonu from the crowd.

Re: [arr] Sayanora Philip's comments on ARR

[Sarathy S]

hi thnx 4 this... really njoyd this sayanora video abt rahman & other videos 
well of those playback singers specially kavitha krishnamurthy who is now 4 
global music. and i like to know whether A.R.RAHMAN is coming together to 
work with them in any of their international projects please i mean 
with kavitha's husband Shri.L..Subramaniam they r of one great musical 
family. if allowed i can talk mails n mails abt d gr8 violin trios of 
shris. L.Shankar, L.Subramaniam & L.Vaidyanathan & the violin duet sisters of 
m.lalitha & m.nandini (their relatives). all achieved in international 
levels like RAHMAN (but in classical carnatic & western fusion with many 
famous western artists).. if there cud b a family of born musical geniuses 
then i cud point at them... music is like their hereditary wealth for 
them. i am also happy 4 kavitha-ji sang many RAHMAN SONGS (i cannot 
forget her KATREY EN VASAL - RHYTHM) WONDERFUL & UNIQUE IS D
 VOICE OF HERS... despite being brought up in delhi, as a south indian she 
made her stamp as a successful playback singer in hindi cinema than any other 
south indian female pbsingers.. not to leave hariharan & shankar 
mahadevan on these lines for male categories.

The Mozart of Madras: Composer A. R. Rahman  
   Story Highlights

   The 'Mozart of Madras' works in both the Indian film industry and Hollywood
  
   Rahman's work includes the music for 'The Lord of the Rings' stage

  LONDON, England (CNN) -- The Screening Room went to the Theatre Royal in 
Drury Lane in the heart of London's West End, where a spectacular musical 
version of "The Lord of The Rings" is enjoying a successful run, to meet Indian 
composer A. R. Rahman, whose blend of Asian culture with rock and Western 
classical styles has revolutionized the Indian film industry. And now Rahman is 
about to make his mark in Hollywood.
  A. R. Rahman, interviewed by CNN's Screening Room


   


  Virtually unknown in Europe and the U.S., Rahman has sold 200 million albums 
worldwide -- more than the Beatles -- and is worshipped throughout much of 
Asia, where he's known as the Mozart of Madras.
  Now he has added a Hollywood film score to his vast repertoire of movie music.
  Rahman explained to CNN what he thinks makes great movie music. "A great 
soundtrack is like 'Laura"s theme', the 'Love Story' theme, 'Chariots of Fire' 
and all those sorts of things, where it stood by itself," he said. But 
recently, he's noticed a changing mood. "Now it is becoming too abstract and 
more ambient and more... I don't know, soundscape-ish, more than melody. People 
are afraid of melody: 'Oh, that melody is distracting my scene,' it is becoming 
like that."
Don't Miss
   The Screening Room   
   Special: Ennio Morricone   
   Interview: Hans Zimmer   
   Our top 10 movie scores   
   Our top 10 songs from the movies 

  And that brings fresh challenges for the makers of film music. "Now the 
challenges of the composer are much more," he told CNN. "One needs to know of 
recording, production, it is not enough to compose a great theme and [know] how 
it can intertwine with the movie. And with Indian film it is an even greater 
challenge, because we need to be like Michael Jackson, John Williams, Hans 
Zimmer and an Indian folk composer all put together. So they expect finesse and 
they expect versatility."
  Rahman's compositions are versatile enough to be used by both Bollywood and 
Hollywood, a case in point being his music for the Hindi film "Dil Se," which 
was used almost a decade later by Spike Lee for "Inside Man."
  But for Rahman, the process to create film music is being challenged by 
increasingly crammed movie schedules. "There used to be a time where the 
director and the composer would work together," he explained. "They would 
develop themes and the director would shoot a scene, but now the world's so 
fast that people are finishing the movie even before going to a composer."
  As well as writing songs and scores, Rahman has featured in many Bollywood 
films singing the songs which are mimed by the acting superstars. He recently 
completed a sell-out tour of the U.S. performing highlights from his songbook 
to devoted fans.
  He explained to CNN how playback singing is a normal part of Indian film 
music. "Well, until I worked in 'Bombay Dreams' six or seven years back, I 
never realized that it is not cool to have playback singing. Until then, it was 
the story of Indian films where somebody else lip synchs and somebody else 
sings." And Rahman has been converted to the Western model, where those singing 
on-screen usually provide the vocals themselves. "In my future projects I would 
rather have a star who sings," he said.
  Director Shekhar Kapur recruited Rahman and fellow composer Craig Armstrong 
to provide the score for Cate Blanchett's sequel to "Elizabeth," "The Golden 
Age," which premieres at Toronto Film Festival in September this year.
  Kapur described the thrill of working with two such different -- and 
complementary -- composers. He told CNN, "Here are two totally different 
cultures. Craig Armstrong is strings and heart, the skies, choir, angels and 
devils, and A. r. is modern, restless music."
  "Just to get them together was very interesting for me. To sit there and see 
both of them jamming together, that was fascinating. They wouldn't talk, they 
would jam, and out of the jamming came the music. It was great."
Rahman is still getting used to his new-found status as darling of both East 
and West -- and it leads to a somewhat chaotic lifestyle, as he explained. "It 
is terrifying sometimes. I suddenly wake up in Scotland doing music for 'Golden 
Age,' and suddenly wake up doing an Indian superstar film, but I think after 
all these years I am probably getting a balance."

  hi Ajit & Vinayakam
   
  kindly do not mistake.. i marked many (non-arr) posts clearly to c only 
not approved i m not bothered much :-) but as v saw recently some came 
instantly on the wonder kid keyboard artist, our young member, to maintain his 
line of view dats balancing arr & himself. so i m naturally surprised to c 
other (non-arr) posts... when v expect few other to maintain d line so as not 2 
dilute d forum... i think v ourselves all obliged not to make such posts even 
abt other mds. it makes no difference...  v read abt some artists promote 
their albums by inviting our boss 2 launch it... d same way i feel this young 
kid up coming... he made some posts abt himself which he deserves in this 
arr forum so dat many will know but v dont see dat justification 
here.. i doubt he wont b allowed wit more (non-arr) posts despite he spks 
abt arr. i agree many non-arrs post of other members might not b similarly 
allowed but here in some members case i
 donno wats working.. some come wit their choice of mds & some 4 
unbiased. only god knows abt contradictory approvals here.

this is the second most anticipated soundtrack for
me this year. I think Monty is quite talented and did a fantastic job
with the BGM of Black. The Black soundtrack is absolutely haunting
and powerful. He will need to prove his full mettle handling a lofty
song filled soundtrack of an SLB film on his own. He is a self
declared Rahman fan and SLB called him the only other complete
composer besides Rahman. If Rahman ever decides to work with SLB, I
fear that their musical egos may clash. I think Jodha Akbar's music
will have some serious competition from the music of Saawariya. Poor
Ismail Darbar. His angry attitudes are not getting him any assignments.

BTW, I think it is healthy and constructive to discuss music of other
quality composers in this group. It frustrates me when the music of
another composer is brought up and some here immediately slam that
poster and the MD with superior attitudes and snobbish type remarks. 
We all know Rahman is the best, but that doesn't mean music from other
MDs can't be appreciated and discussed here within reason. Please be
open minded and respect diverse tastes. Other MDs who I admire are
Vishal B., SEL, Shantanu Moitra, MM Kreem, Vishal Shekhar.

Re: [arr] (non arr) Anyone else anticipating the soundtrack of Saawariya?

[Sarathy S]

 
  imho I have also made many (non-arr) posts which r not allowed here. 
then only came to know its out n out ARRs forum later realised if 
every1 start posting abt their other favorite MDs in tamil, telugu, malayalam , 
kannada, bengali, marati ? & things cud go worse. like allowing this one 
but not dat one etc. etc.. & it also wont be nice to spk abt only one area 
of (non-arr) MDs. when there r many such MDs in India :-)
  

Ajit <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
   
  After Jodha Akbar, this is the second most anticipated soundtrack for
me this year. I think Monty is quite talented and did a fantastic job
with the BGM of Black. The Black soundtrack is absolutely haunting
and powerful. He will need to prove his full mettle handling a lofty
song filled soundtrack of an SLB film on his own. He is a self
declared Rahman fan and SLB called him the only other complete
composer besides Rahman. If Rahman ever decides to work with SLB, I
fear that their musical egos may clash. I think Jodha Akbar's music
will have some serious competition from the music of Saawariya. Poor
Ismail Darbar. His angry attitudes are not getting him any assignments.

BTW, I think it is healthy and constructive to discuss music of other
quality composers in this group. It frustrates me when the music of
another composer is brought up and some here immediately slam that
poster and the MD with superior attitudes and snobbish type remarks. 
We all know Rahman is the best, but that doesn't mean music from other
MDs can't be appreciated and discussed here within reason. Please be
open minded and respect diverse tastes. Other MDs who I admire are
Vishal B., SEL, Shantanu Moitra, MM Kreem, Vishal Shekhar.

  Today is a great day for me. After 7th October 2005, today is when I
got my proper chance to meet A.R.Rahman the legend, the God of Indian
music! We were called to AM studios at 5 PM. The studio is beautiful!!
We were told to wait in a room to which we had to go downstairs and
take another flight of stairs. As we proceeded downstairts, I saw a
white Innova taxi pull up at the gate. And lo! ARR steps out of the
vehicle, clad in a white kurta! He casts a glance towards the four of
us who were there, and goes up through another entrance.

The excrutiating wait of half an hour downstairs was
well...excrutiating, especially when you know ARR is up there inside!
And finally, our chance came. "Srishti!" came the call, and we were
ushered into the lobby where we had earlier been seated. I'll describe
the lobby later :P!
There he was! The man! The legend! We had taken cameras along, only to
learn we couldn't take pics :( But there was the press, and they were
taking pics of each band with Boss.

Rahman Sir looked at me and said "hi". I blurted out a " Hello Sir"
when what I actually wanted to say was something like "Do you realize
what a great moment this is for me Mr. Rahman, and it lies entirely in
your hands to make it last for more than a minute"!
Then Rahman Sir asked us how the experience was.
"Great"
And then he asked is to sit in a couch. I sat between our guitarist
and our other vocalist. And Rahman Sir right behind me, resting his
hand on the sofa! Click!

We were promised the photos would be sent to us as soon as possible.

Now to the lobby. Gr8 ambience, with loads of oriental wall hangings,
and other stuff. Particularly noticeable were some electric wall
hangings, that glowed like lightning bolts, all of which converged
around your hand when you touched them! Plus there was an electronic
organ at one corner. Then the showcase. This was interesting. Loads of
awards, including those from CNN-IBN, Filmfare etc were there. And
below was a small bookshelf. Some of the books I saw there: One about
microphone techniques, few books on Islam, a couple from a series
called Great Composers, on Mozart and Bach, a book about Superbowl, an
edition of Society Magazine with ARR on the cover...

I am right now out of words, exhausted, exhilarated, excited and
drained!! All this happened just 3 hours ago! Will post pics and more
when I regain conciousness! :P

Re: [arr] Its Official. ARR misses National Award

[Sarathy S]

 
  hi pratap :-)
   
  i agree it wud be a disappoitnment for arr fans.. but having known about 
the living legend shri.lalgudi g.jayaraman, REHMAN HIMSELF WUD FAVOUR THIS as 
the best decision & time to honour this violin genius having done music 
direction... those who know about this legend would not b surprised abt 
rehman not being chosen 4 national award though shri.lalgudi is not a main 
stream film music director like rehman is genius in film music..., carnatic 
classical violinist cum vocalist cum veena player "padmabushan" shri lalgudi 
jayaraman is genius in his own style of violin in carnatic classical & his vast 
school of music. & to my little knowledge, those who learn classical 
music in violin to any guru will adhere to shri.lalgudi's bANi (rich 
methodology of violin usage). he is the one who introduced soft but 
complicated nuances in violin like in vocal singing. Being rahman fans, 
let us not lose our spirits while honouring a great legend

[arr] Mission Possible or Impossible ?

[Sarathy S]

 
  hi all
   
  when i was upgrading my knowledge reg. arrr's discography i came thro this 
ekam satyam album & my search resulted in some sites displaying ekam satyam 
file. pardon me dat voice sounds like someone & cld not feel rehman in 
it... :-(  have u all heard that song ? or hariharan singing dat ? i want to 
know if some of here ve this to ur collection... could u kindly share it for 
its price. if not where to acquire ? i searched some online shopping sites 
& results show nil.. if rights still not given why mr.bharatbala not doing 
anything abt this ? is it in mike jacson hands to allow these rights ? what is 
happening exactly in this ? if i m too much to ask cannot this group do 
something to release dat single by approaching concerned pple if it is not yet 
released to my belief ? bcuz d way time goes even an album cld come in d combo 
of adnan sami & mike jacson. i read recently adnan to team up with mike 
it is disgusting to c why & what is preventing to get
 rights 4 this album i donno where to start & to whom shld b 
addressd. if this grp could come forward to bell d right cat to acquire d 
single & explode one more excitement to this world abt rehmans involvement in 
this... some pple may readily ask whether myself cld do 
this. certainly not for i m not dat influential to make things fall in 
its place.. but i m here to support d pple who could reach concerned pple 
easily i want to raise this issue to see this mission possible or 
impossible. ?

[arr] Re:[Semi ARR] URGENT: How to save cassettes and CDs from fungus?

[Sarathy S]

 
  if u have room full of cds & cassettes then ready to face this article
   
  What can I do about moisture problems in my home?
  
  If summertime humidity in your basement is 60% or higher:

   Molds and mildew grow easily.   
   Moisture wicking through a concrete basement floor can be trapped in 
carpeting, resulting in much higher humidity levels than in the air, allowing 
mold growth at even lower air humidity. 
  To reduce humidity during the summer months: 

   Reduce any sources of moisture.   
   Close off the basement to moist, outside air.   
   Use a dehumidifier to bring the humidity down to 50% or less. An inexpensive 
humidity gauge from a hardware store can help you adjust your dehumidifier to 
the proper setting.   
   For severe humidity problems, consider buying a large-capacity, 
high-efficiency dehumidifier such as the "Santa Fe" from Therma-Stor.   
   Make sure gutters and downspouts carry water away from the foundation and 
soil is sloped away from the foundation.   
   Use vent fans during and after bathing and cooking.   
   Dry clothes outside or in a clothes dryer vented to the outside.   
   Do not dry clothes on an indoor clothesline.   
   Put plastic over bare soil in crawl spaces. 
  Moisture on windows in the winter is also from high relative humidity. 

   As the outside temperature goes down, the inside surface of your windows can 
get colder than the dew point of the air in your house.   
   When this happens, water condenses on the glass. 
  To reduce humidity during the winter months:

   Make sure the relative humidity is below 40%. Very cold outdoor temperatures 
often require indoor humidity lower than 40% to prevent condensation.   
   Add another layer of glazing with plastic or a storm window.   
   If you have a humidifier, make sure it is turned off and not leaking water.  
 
   Increase airflow over windows by moving furniture away or using fans.   
   Reduce night temperature setbacks (although this will increase heating 
costs). 
  If mold develops or if you have condensation for more than a few weeks, you 
have a more serious problem. For severe moisture problems, consider adding a 
whole-house ventilation system (preferably a heat recovery system).

  hi NAZ
   
  thanx 4 this video guys specially these loop/sample hunters.. listen 
to geroge peters abt arr to know how arr is classic in all & interesting to 
know his works with arr as a performer & as an arranger in many films of 
arr now d loop/sample hunters will even charge up voices ? arranged by 
peters ? not by arr ? well how can this happen ? failing to realise d point 
with d supervision of arr.. :-) and i loved peter's lines "You need to be

[arr] Loops & Samples (MMPARTHI & AVINASH)

[Sarathy S]

TO PARTHI
   
  Please ask other ardent fans.., who know everything about rehman... they will 
help as i am not a composer.. At this point of time i can give out only 
little about my presence once in his studio 7 years back.. thanks to one of 
my friend who is the son of a famous producer to take me there when he visited 
there bychance  when many misunderstandings happpen to an explanation, even 
with members who ask why this much fuss abt loops & samples.  i 
understand a NORMAL FAN of rehman will enjoy all his tunes without 
researching.. & become practical even if it is a partial inspiration or 
entire lift but FANATICS cannot digest even if there are proofs 4 partial 
inspiration.. & more of it a third category rehman fans exist here who 
takes all hard effort to find tunes from vaious loop-samples package & various 
albums & submit them with its name further only to prove rehman too influenced 
by packages & alien tunes. where do these fans fit ?? AND TO
 AVINASH, 
   
  TODAY i took sometime to go through older posts I SEE THERE ARE MANY 
MEMBERS OLDER THAN MY JOINING HERE SUBMITTING SONGS & SAMPLES OR LOOPS TO FIND 
THESE IN REHMAN ALBUMS. I DO NOT BELONG TO 2ND & 3RD CATEGORY.. I AM 
NOT THE ONE LOOKING FOR MIRAGE.. even in old posts from the years of origin 
of this group there had been many discussions abt rehman's usage of 
loops, samples, copy, lift... etc. ONE OF THE GUYS RANOJOY (I BELIEVE HE 
HIMSELF COMPOSER) SAYS AS LONG AS IT IS COMMERCIAL LOOPS PACKAGE NOTHING WRONG 
& STILL REHMAN ABLE TO SHINE & EXCEL & THERE HAD BEEN DISCUSSIONS OF 
USING FRUITY LOOPS BEFORE., AVINASH-JI, NOW I SUGGEST U TO GOOGLE 
WITH A.R.RAHMAN, LOOPS, SAMPLES * IF POSSIBLE ANSWER THEM ALL... INSTEAD TO MY 
FAIR MAILS.

Hello Sarathy, for your information, Rahman had his own samples 
bank of around 16000 samples in his studio,  when he started composing with 
roja. Which was also a record holding collection in entire asia. And I believe 
that most of these collections were his own creative work. So don't expect that 
he will go for cheap samples which available on net.
  And secondly,I don't think Rahman copies or uses the loops. He has highy 
sofisticated studio in asia, He can produce such  high quality sounds in a fly. 
It's all rahman's talent and creativity that makes him stand out of all 
technocrat musician in the world.

[arr] Loops & Samples ! (Oasis Vs Mirage)

[Sarathy S]

 
  Praba or anyone else & whoever want 2 prove rehman too uses loops & samples & 
does that OK... when rehman asks to see oasis some refuse 2 look only 2 
mirage... it is like saying.. suppose rehman did civil engineering & he 
plans 4 a building with d available materials in d world like sand, cement, 
water, brick, glass, pvc, wood, steel & tools with men to assist. but 
but... with his own creativity does architectural design to deliver a building 
beautifully out ot these above said materials.. result is building looks 
awesome & gives unusual look than other builders... nobody misses dat 
building.. when this is d case it is now 4 some 2 expect him do a building 
without using any of these materials.. some new strange stuff like oxygen 
or with gold, silver, diamonds & crystals is not that sounds strange 
these pple r looking for mirage...  these loops & samples etc.. etc.. etc.. do 
not prevent anyone to listen & enjoy rehman's
 delivers why a 
   
  big fuss abt lifts & inspirations... unless otherwise d composers sue others 
to imitate their sounds entirely... it is clear these usages are part & 
parcel of every MD in this world & not just India... main factor reg. 
rehman is d combination he uses & provides music in an unusual, uncommon way, a 
feast & dats wat special abt him to distinguish him as a talented composer. 
why cannot some accept this truth whatever he does is different to other 
Indian composers in terms of sounds & is musical treat.. if some going to 
argue there r few MDs who sounds like rehman mean the credit is only 4 
rehman.. he is the one who introduced new trends & new sounds in music 
technically & others follow such ways to survive.

Audio Samples Used by ARR:
  
Rahman is the first person who used a lot of samples in his songs and the 
second person is Ranjit Barot. Ranjit used to work with rahman and Ranjit 
programmed drums in HUMMA HUMMA. Now everybody is using samples in mumbai 
(Salim-Sulaiman, Sandeep Sherodker, jacky, inderjeet sharma, ram sampat & 
sandeep chowta) if you guys think that how can sandeep chowta make sound like 
rahman? there are samples. 

Here are some examples:
  
1] Shabba Shabba [Daud] with african voices? Those are samples not real 
africans voices.

2] Spanish claps in Jumbalika [Thakshak]? Samples again.

3] Chinese vocals in Latka [Hindustani]? Its a chinese sample from the cd 
(SPECTRASONICS HEART OF ASIA) 

4] Killer drum beats in rangeela songs? Drum samples from the cd (BEST SERVICE 
XXL 1500) and its a long list.

5] Final beats of Mukkala Muqabla [Kadhalan] sounds like dr.alban africa. 
Samples again.

6] Beats in Mangta Hai Kya [Rangeela]

7] Early bands like Deep Forest and some Euro techno bands used this concept a 
lot. Thats why title sound of Thillana Thillana [Muthu] sounds like Deep forest 
songs

There are many other samples rahman used in many of his songs. It is not 
copying just using a commercially available samples!

  cat is out of d bag thnx 4 this & i saw d interview today. as 
rayrai rightly put it. even matured & educated pple sometimes go wrong for 
want of quick fame & money.. it is not correct to suppress dileep. he 
must have been given equal credits to that of magna sound & malgadi 
shubha.. after all every album is a team work.. & considering dileep a 
composer & not just singer to omit names as it often happen in some albums & 
dileep was d main composer 4 SMF.. both of them wrongly judged abt dileep's 
capacity & underestimated his talent with just one album is something not 
acceptable time has proved whose side is right... even now if they 
(magna & malgadi) deny sighting it as a mistake 4m company's inlay 
card-designer's part or try 2 find some other justifications, they still hide 
their wrong approach... & dont have d right mind-set to accept pple or 2 
give respect to other professionals as well...

  What is he talking all about as if he gave a birth for ARR in music.
His justification is nowhere to be sustained. He says ARR should have
walked to him and clarified. Why didn't he approach ARR b4
re-publishing. He just tried to encash ARR's name in no way is it
ethical in the form of sincere business. If ARR has sued after
becoming a superstar he just used the name of a superstar and dont he
ever realize what it takes to use a name of a superstar. 
I had both the copies (tapes eventually destroyed)of the Set me free.
The pre -ARR just had credits to Dileep (no ARR) for music. The album
title had glorified Shubha & Magna Sound. That makes it as Shubha's
album. The post ARR was only ARR. If talked about it was all correct
by ARR because Shubha was neglected there and that being her album.
Also in the magazine ARR clearly mentions that. He did not demand for
the royalty of using his name. But fought for the right cause.

[arr] Interesting development of creativity 4m a spark of inspiration

[Sarathy S]

 
  thanx sunil
   
  Wow ! its wonderful... rehman made this bit a hit.. after listening to 
this sample this has strengthened my point as said b4 "that does not mean 
composers lack originality". there is difference btween complete lift & 
inspiration... i can say rehman inspired by these samples & loops but d 
creation of rehman's idea of song is magnificent. whatelse we can say 
nothing but interesting birth of 5 minute song 4m few seconds loop/sample.. 
it is all intelligence speaks how to develop d idea.. in film directors 
language they say how they developed d story & screen play with a small spark 
of an idea.. this is different 4m a movie having a similar story..  if 
any other junior composer cld get a trak resembling to munbe vaa... 4m any 
other hiphop album containing lines like rangoli chorus etc. atleast to 50% of 
rehman's song i agree it is a lift..

called: Hip Harp. 
  See for yourself.
  These are samples from Ueberschall, you can buy these and uses them for

I agree with KunalWould you say that because somebody had the "Theen 
taal" (tabla) in a song...nobody else can use it. If somebody else used it, 
would you actually be shocked. Its just a sequence of beats / notes. The true 
gift would be using it a place where it sounds not just good but great.

  People make Loop CDs and sample banks specially for composers to use in their 
music. I dont think there is any composer in the world who has worked without 
samples and loops. When it is made specially for them... why not use it ???

  hi ppl,

I just compiled a list of ARR songs that are special in a different way. These 
songs bring tears to my eyes whenever I listen to them (dont know if others 
feel the same). These songs might not be highly sentimental but they've managed 
to touch my soul. 

Here is my top 5:

1.  Poongatrile/Yeh Ajnabi from Uyire/Dil Se - (both versions are equally 
effective).
2.  Aazadi from Bose - The Forgotten Hero (ARR's voice and the chorus are 
awesome)
3. Tamizha Tamizha - Roja (the music & picturization has a combined effect) 
4. Yeh Jo Des Hai Tera - Swades (gr8 lyrics & amazing rendition)
5. Yeh Tara Woh Tara - Swades (the combo of Udit's voice, 2 different kids'  
voice does the trick)

of course i can go on with more but i'll stop with top 5 for now 

so what is on your list?

so, no wonder they havent included sivaji in the top 10, as they dont even have

Re: [arr] Munbe Munbe Vaa is a complete lift of a sample!

[Sarathy S]

 
  hi chup_shhh
   
  to put this comment i dont need to listen to samples... i m here to say, 
as u r a composer u know these things 4 u have to use these loops & samples & 
even various interesting tunes. only pple like u & these djs & music 
lovers who r extensively proned to more albums including international albums 
could find these things otherwise mass music lovers who r mostly not 
involved in these areas are more satisfied with what the MDs give to them. 
such music lovers including me do not need any proof that this one is original 
score that one is a lift... we really want to enjoy d resultant 
product. one thing i can say that. why our indian MDs are not bothering 
about their scores being lifted by others if they happen to hear them ??
   
  for d simple reason they know they too have taken some other composer's tune 
be a one line tune/bgm or small loop or even a full-song identical one... 
if they r clean & confident about their every composition is a original score 
totally independent & no way has any part of outsiders album or loop banks/song 
banks, they will sue other composers for lifting... & would become a cover 
story... they themselves know about their kind of work & become silent 
audience... i would say that is not at all wrong if others say it is 
wrong mean the sounds should entirely be indian without any mixture of western 
which is something absurd to do it for they are doing business... & indian 
film music is all d western way with indian sounds & does not mean they lack 
originality Most of the MDs scores certainly have originality when taken 
indian side of sounds & with this they just fuse d western genre & give us 
hits. for this fusion they need to take support
 from outside tracks which r not known to us as said before & sometimes i 
used to criticise other MDs using rehman tunes & 4 that my friends would ask me 
to meet rehman to speak about this & they say rehman will show about d sounds 
he used so far from other western albums. our MDs whatever they do with 
hits, we r able to enjoy. & let us not make a big fuss about lifting be 
it rehman albums or other Mds albums. :-)

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

Rahman, the biggist composer of these times, uses samples in his

Do not reply stupidness untill you heared these samples, otherwise you 
are fooling yourself and others. First listen to the sample and then
give you're opinion.
