[arr] Rahmania programme in Aaha Fm

2007-11-28 Thread T Krishnababu
Dear All,

Today in Rahmania programme Mr Pyarilal was being given the honour of 
talking over the fm radio. I understand he is starting a new website 
www.ilovearrahman.com I just saw the page and it says it is under 
constructuion. If any one has recorded this programme can they upload, 
may be in rapidsharte or esnips and give me a link if you have. My 
recorder did not work today and so could not do it. I ahve recorded in 
my mp3 but quality is very bad. He had given some good info also.

Re: [arr] My last rambling on Saawariya

2007-09-26 Thread T Krishnababu
Dear All,

I joined this group when i just got the info thru a friend of mine 
that there is a group exclusively formed by ARR fans. I did post few 
messages of my son particularly ones to invite people for his public 
concerts on carnatic.  H/ever when few took the issue of this being 
ARR forum, I sincerely appreciated and stopped those messages except 
sharing my son's experience to do with any thing with regard to ARR. 
i.e. going to his studios, meeting him, listening to his music etc.

It is my view, which is also the reason for starting this grp i 
suppose, that this group is for topics related to ARR and ARR only. 
If not for the big name of ARR i would not have joined this group 
and so should be many fans. I just saw the account and membership is 
over 12000. I think every one has the right to convey their view 
opinion and yes in this forum i also feel it should be done only on 
ARR or anything related to ARR. I am sure every one will appreciate 
this view. 

It is a fact that not many music directors have great forums like 
this with 12000 + dedicated members and i think if one has to 
discuss music in general, then person / member can start a group for 
that and may be request all the members to join in it who are 
interested in general music or music directors. I am sure every one 
would appreciate the fact this group is for ARR and related to ARR 
and let us i fell, strict to that instead of sharing news / subjects 
not related to ARR.

I just thought of giving my opinion and it is not to hurt any one in 
the forum.

 Both sides of the divide have a right to exist but some tolerance

 If ARR's fans are snobs or not is up for debate, but the reaction 
to Saawariya is certainly not coming out of insecurity. The music 
has received mixed reviews with many known aficionados of music not 
taking to it kindly. I, for one, thought Omkara was the best 
soundtrack of last year, even ahead of Rang De Basanti and there is 
no shame in admitting it. ARR did so himself.
 
 And everyone is free to choose what they want to listen to but I 
am certain that ARR wouldn't put the craftsman ahead of the craft. 
ARR's music is still a tiny drop in a mighty ocean.

[arr] I met Rahman uncle again on 10th Jul'07

2007-07-11 Thread T Krishnababu
Dear All,

I had the great oppurtunity to meet Rahman uncle once again on the 
10th Jul'07 in Chennai./ He had come to bless my western guru Sri 
Sadha's son on his wedding reception. I had the oppurtunity to perform 
a concert that day. I did take photos with ARR uncle and was very 
happy.

However ARR uncle came in to the hall as we were packing the board and 
so did not get the great oppurtunity of him seeing me play live. Any 
way many great things happened in my life after i met him and took 
photo in Narada Gana Sabha and like that i am sure i have got myself 
charged up to get best things to come.

Rgds and love to all of you.

[arr] Sivaji Rerecording

2007-06-17 Thread T Krishnababu
This is kKrishnababu f/o 12 year old KeyboardSathya.

We just swa the movie Sivaji and ARR has done a great job of giving 
one of his best for this movie. Well there is a thought of Re-
recording not being upto the mark and i sincerely feel for this all 
the three majors i.e. Sankar - Director, AVM - Producers  Rajini - 
the Hero is to be blamed. 

I think they thought all these three names (It is also clear in the 
line up to the hype created, due credits have not been given to ARR) 
will just win over every one's mind but i think they have 
miscalculated the effect of re-recording in a movie which goes a 
long way for the success of a movie. Having ARR with them and not 
utilizing him properly in the re-recording is indeed the most sad 
part of the movie. 

I am sure Rajini's daughter will learn a lesson from this and use 
ARR to his best not only for scoring music for songs but also 
throughout the movie effectively for the success of SULTAN

In fact Sathya also felt very much on this issue. The song sequences 
have been done very well and if the movie is not running this reason 
of Re-recording will be one of the major points. I do not blame ARR 
fully because as the core team the big 3 should have applied their 
mind.

The above is just my opinion and is no way to hurt any one.

 The winning team will cut an album with him in his studio and may 
even get a
 chance to work for him.
 
 While technology has made music composing much easier, the whole 
effort is
 to spot extraordinary talent.
 
 Lots of people use computers to play music. The joy of playing is 
lost. The
 initiative is to get these people who are extraordinarily talented 
and to
 showcase them, said AR Rahman, Music Director.
 
 Renowned singer Vasundhara Das will also be part of the selection.
 
 For the first time], even the accompanying instrumentalists will 
get the
 recognition they deserve and may push many to the limelight.
 
 Music is not all about the singer being in the forefront. It's 
about how
 six people get together and write music and play it. I think in 
that sense
 it's great, said Vasundhara Das, Singer.
 
 It is clearly an opportunity of a lifetime for budding bands, and 
soon a new

I am Krishnababu, Sathya's father and we sincerely thank every one 
of you who had taken time to listen and send your wishes  comments 
on Sathya's effort in performing a track of Sri AR Rehman. We are 
overwhelmed on this response with the Phone calls and email wishes 
and yes Sathya will be presenting few more numbers performed with 
his keyboard. I shall upload same and give links to this great 
forum. 

Sathya also performed this song live on stage yesterday in a private 
concert with Sridhar on drums, Suri on Bass guitar  Arjun Ganesh on 
Mrudhangam. The audience were thrilled on same as probably it was 
the first time hey were listening to this song or seeing it played 
live. Thanks to ARR for this great composition. 

I am also pleased to inform that Sathya is to perform a Carnatic on 
Keyboard Concert in DOHA at Indian Cultural Centre, Doha on the 20th 
April evening at 6pm. If any one of you are DOHA pls  try and attend 
this concert and bless him. 

Fyi we will there on the 19th April and if you can forward your 
email id may be we can meet up at the hotel and probably Sathya can 
perform for the great fans of ARR an exclusive demo of ARR songs on 
his board - live. 

Thnaking you once again for the great support extended and i am sure
