[arr] THE RAHMAN TODAY
Hi friends, The Rahman today is more dependent on his brand name than on the strength of his music or his tunes may be with the exception of a VTV or a RAVAN cos when i was listening to Endiran ( it was really a good album) but the fact was the music arrangement was not anything we could associate with Rahman. I was listening to Endiran as it was composed by Rahman only and if it had been by any other composer the critics would hav shred it to pieces. I understand that Rahman is busy with his international assignments and he his taking up tamil projects as they are forced on him. Dear sir don't take up any tamil projects and if you do, we need nothing short of a RAHMAN ALBUM meeting all the criteria associated with you.I feel this is something you could do to your dear old TAMIL FANS. The main point i would like to make is that Rahman's music should be enjoyed by EVERYONE and not just people would understand the finer aspects of Rahman's music which is what is happening right now as more and more people get alienated from our Oscar winner. Remember even Buddha's teaching could not have got the due acceptance if it had been so complex. I feel someone could take up this matter with boss, not as a compliant but as a general media feedback. regards Krishna
[arr] ----Where is the REAL RAHMAN----
Dear guys, Last week i was browsing in an internet cafe and as curiously enough they were not playing the usual YSR/HJ songs and were playing Boys, e20 u18 songs. What superb songs and especially the song ASATHURA. long live boss The owner of the cafe and one of his friends were remarking casually that ARR doesn't compose songs like this anymore. How sad Boss has lost his place among the local junta who were his PILLARS OF STRENGTH during his beginning. I WAS LEFT WONDERING IF BOSS COULD SPARE TIME FOR A COLOSSAL WASTE LIKE YUVRAJ or a BIG BUDGET BONANZA LIKE BLUE where i still feel BOSS WAS NOT REQUIRED*, WHY COULD HE NOT SPARE SOME TIME FOR SOME YOUTHFUL FILMS where HIS MUSIC SPEAKS MORE THAN THE BUDGET OF THE FILM. GUYS THE GROUND REALITY IS THE NOWADAYS EXCEPT THIS GROUP INCLUDING ME DON'T GO OUT AND BUY AN ARR ALBUM ON THE STRENGTH OF HIS MUSIC . I AM NOT OFFENDING BOSS OR ANYBODY HERE. I SEE THE REALITY AND MY HEART PAINS. I WOULD LIKE BOSS TO SPARE SOME TIME FOR YOUTHFUL FILMS LIKE BOYS/E20U18/ATM by giving back something to the LOCAL JUNTA like me who feel starved for some RAHMANIQ music Guys given a choice i would listen ATM to GHAJINI or E20 to JTJY. i am not referring to any language here i just go by the strength/quality of RAHMANS music. i find the essence of Rahman more in these albums than in their big budget counterparts. Guys dont bring in the Hollywood factor again . I totally agree with Boss going global. But i would like Boss to restrict his appearances in useless Bollywood projects as i dont remember any Hindi film going by the Strength of Boss's music in the recent past except D6 or Ay Hyrathe in Guru.

[arr] ---MY VIEW---
hi guys, Rahman should stop doing any more Hindi movies and revert back doing more MEANINGFUL tamil movies and he can obviously satisfy his musical hunger by doing Hollywood projects. What bollywood produces is . Take this left,right and centre. If you say DILLI 6 is the zenith of Hindi movies guys kindly excuse me, we have FAR FAR FAR Better projects for our boss in Tamil. Here i am refering to the movie and not the music. Boss shuld stop doing like Yuvraj, Blue etc. I mean it. Blue is copy of some english film and i dont like my boss being part of such a group. Rahman sir please come back to Tamil and continue from where you left. Guys nowadays to fill Rahman's absence i am forced to listen to HJ's music cos he is closest to Rahman and not SEL/Vishal Shekar as many of you think. And HJ simply composes the same stuff again and makes merry . WHAT PROVIDENCE:!! ARR has been forgotten in TAMIL. Take it from me. Ask the general public. Go out and see for yourself guys. Dont live the framed space of a computer and wirite your views. Sir come back to your roots. compose another May Madham for us please This is my kind request. regards, Krishna See the Web's breaking stories, chosen by people like you. Check out Yahoo!

What I meant to say is he is best the ENGINEER for acoustics, I meant the literal meaning of ENGINEER. Any one should accept that ARR concentrates more on acoustics,even he himself accepted. That's the part where I like him the most and best in the current industry. To just tell an example, for the film Roja, the famous song which starts with flute ( in telugu - " naa cheli rojave,naa lo vunnave " ), ARR asked H Sridhar to capture the sound of floating air over the Flute rather than core sound of Flute. That's how ARR advises his team and concentrates more on acoustics. I accept his productivity is exceptional, but the only thing is he drops the emotion of a song's tune in the middle.

[arr] now running reviews GURU..must watch
By Deep Ganatra GURU has many things to make you excited. 1. It is directed by the Guru of direction, Mani Ratnam. 2. Music is by the Guru of music industry, A R Rahman. 3. It is rumored to be based on the life of the business Guru, Dhirubhai Ambani. The movie is about life of Gurukant Desai (Abhishek Bachchan), a dreamer, who lives in a small village and believes in dreaming high. The movie shows how GURU becomes India's top businessman from a small time worker in Turkey. You will find many similarities between the character GURU and Dhirubhai Ambani, be it paralysis attack or being constantly in the news with various allegations. The movie is shown in 3 phases, Phase 1, the young Guru who leaves India for Turkey to earn more. Phase 2, the young matured Guru, who leaves his job in Turkey and comes back to India to start his own business. And Phase 3, a middle aged businessman, who is top businessman in India and does not believe in looking back. >From the beginning itself the movie does not let you move for a single minute, >the music, the cinematography, the direction and finally the acting. >Everything is just on the right place and very well balanced. I think this >movie will be a milestone for Abhishek Bachchan as his acting abilities have >been explored very well. This will be the best role of his career so far. >Aishwarya Rai played the role of a very simple innocent girl from a small >village. And she played it very well. But the movie totally belongs to >Abhishek Bachchan. The cinematography is really impressive; the locals of the village are shot very beautifully. The waterfalls, the grass fields just make you feel like being there. Let me sum up the movie. Story: Inspiring. It tells the story of a village boy who dares to dream and how he realizes his dream, the director has handled the subject brilliantly. Music: When it is A R Rahman, it has to be top class. I personally liked all of the songs. Especially Tere Bina is very impressive. Acting: Abhishek Bachchan deserves an award - Excellent acting. Aishwarya Rai was also very good. The acting was just too natural. I had a fear that they might not fit well in Gujarati characters but I am really happy that they proved me wrong. Other characters too did their job well. It was good to see Mithun Chakraborty in a decent role after a long time. R Madhavan looked a lot slimmer than his earlier avatar. Vidya Balan had a very short role but she was good at it. So, overall I would give this movie 4 stars out of 5. It is a must watch. Predicto Meter: It should do very good business all over. - Heres a new way to find what you're looking for - Yahoo! Answers
[arr] Sify reviews GURU....worldclass!!!!!!!!!!!!
Watch Guru for Abhishek`s world-class act Movie GuruDirector Mani RatnamCast Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai, Mallika SherawatPost Your Review -->Meet India's most powerful man, screams the headlines. You want to believe the statement primarily because the man at the helm of affairs is none other than Mani Ratnam, one of the finest talents India has produced. Irrespective of how his films are received by the paying public, you cannot deny the fact that a Mani Ratnam film is special. So when Guru, Mani's new film, makes claims such as the one mentioned above, the viewer saunters into the cineplex with real big expectations. Mani's impressive repertoire includes a few bio-pics and now Guru is a welcome addition to the club. This time around, the supremely talented storyteller narrates the story of a man who rises from zilch and becomes the premier industrialist of the country through sheer hard work, determination, passion and grit. Editor's ChoiceAs a story, Guru is tremendously inspiring and makes you feel all the more confident to encounter challenges and hurdles that may crop up in a journey called life. But by no means is Guru a documentary, as a section of the film industry/media would want us to believe. Sure, Guru chronicles several vital facets of an industrialist's life, but the marriage of enlightenment and entertainment is brilliantly executed here. With Guru, Mani proves that he's indeed the Guru when it comes to narrating stories. Note the poignant moments in the narrative -- Guru's thorny relationship with his father [Rajendra Gupta], his relationship with a newspaper publisher [Mithun Chakraborty], Guru's brother-in-law Jignesh [Arya Babbar] staging a walkout and creating a rift between Guru and his wife Sujata [Aishwarya Rai], the confrontation between the journalist [Madhavan] and Guru at the publisher's residence, Guru's emotional moment in the hospital when his trusted aide [Manoj Joshi] attempts suicide and of course, the finale. The graph of Guru escalates gradually and reaches its crescendo in the concluding reels. Guru's monologue in a packed courtroom -- where an enquiry commission is looking into the complaints against Guru's companies -- gives you goose bumps. The simpleton from a village in Gujarat roars like never before and the impact it creates cannot be described in mere words. All you want to say is, it's the most fitting finale for a fabulous film! Mani's choice of the protagonist -- Abhishek Bachchan -- is equally worthy. You ought to be enormously talented to understand the nuances of the character and Abhishek deserves the highest praise for reliving a complex role. You smile when he smiles, you cry when he cries you relive every single emotion that the character experiences. Only goes to show that the actor involves you at every step with a stupendous performance. In a nutshell, Guru packs in a solid punch in those 2.45 hours. The year 2007 may have just begun, but one can confidently state that this Mani Ratnam film will rank prominently amongst the bests of the year when we go into a flashback mode later this year. Put your hands together for one of the most courageous attempts on the Hindi screen. Guru is a film not to be missed! In a small village of Idar in Gujarat, a young man dreams of making it big some day. His father [Rajendra Gupta], the headmaster of the village school, tells him that dreams never come true. But Gurukant Desai [Abhishek Bachchan] dares to dream! Set in 1951, Guru tells the story of a ruthlessly ambitious villager who moves to Turkey first and Mumbai later with his wife Sujata [Aishwarya Rai] and brother-in-law Jignesh [Arya Babbar] to fulfill his dreams. In Mumbai, truth dawns upon Guru that the business world is a closed community ruled by a handful of rich and influential people who don't believe in giving opportunities to new players. Despite barriers, he starts a company called Shakti Trading and climbs the ladder of success at a furious pace. Manik Dasgupta aka Nanaji [Mithun Chakraborty], who publishes a newspaper Swatantra, treats Guru as his son. But when he learns that Guru's means to make it big are not right, he along with the Editor of his newspaper, Shyam [Madhavan], decide to expose Guru's unjust ways. Even though Guru is a bio-pic, the serpentine twists and turns in the screenplay are the mainstay of the enterprise. You may have heard of a few incidents, but the life sketch of the leading industrialist makes for an interesting celluloid experience. >From the writing point of view, while Guru holds your attention at most times, >there are a few loose ends, though negligible, that you cannot overlook. The >tiff between Guru and his bro-in-law Jignesh is one of those tracks. What >actually brings about a rift between the two and why doesn't Jignesh reappear >anywhere in the

hi frds, i agree TOTALLY with Haja Nawaz. HJ is stealing the limelight with his mediocre tunes. Even me as a neutral listener would go in for HJ and say that it is more hummable than arr's. i say this with a heavy heart. Reason... hj synchronisation is repetitive.He has to prove a point to the audience that he is innovative though he really fails on more than one occassion. Even ARR wanted to prove a point in his beginning that he is the king by giving pin point precision in orchestration.oh wat a lovely song "Romeo attam potta" was.Or for that matter any song before he entered the useless hindi film industry. I personally feel that ARR thinks that he should use all his precision and wonderful lovely innovations only in the hindi and hollywood productions. now there is no distinction to be reached in tamil as he feels that he has done his bit. But in the process he has lost many fans who were simply listening to his songs only for its innovative musical arrangements and fantastic orchestration which arr is giving very lesss attention to in tamil this is where hj scores. he is simply toeing the line that arr took to reach stardom..but not in other innovative areas of a song.he can never compose song like "innisai" or "theekuruvia from kks" which needs indepth knowledge of carnatic music. the missing factor: --where is the innovative flute pieces that used to adorn many of arr's tracks... --where is the innovative musical pieces in a songs interval that was arr's forte and that was the deciding factor in a songs popularity.. --where is the pinpoint precision and sync in orchestration that is usually assc with arr in tamil industry. if some of the true fans simply say that arr is vintage stuff and takes time to sink in true 100% true but how do u explain a song like "thazhuvude nazhuvude" or an idiotic "maja maja" which in my view is "the worst arr song ever". so if these songs were for commerial purposes than iam sorry folks they did nothing but dent arr's credibility... Then why not arr go in for 100% commercial aspects as he did in his earlier days like love birds,mr.romio,may madham,thiruda thiruda,alaipayuthe .. and so may vintage stuffs. This is cry from a true fan who has been battling and forcing my friends at office to listen to an arr tune.arr has simply disappered from their radar. I hav tried explaining them a million or even a TRILLION times that a very ORIGINAL tune takes time to evolve and arr is the only original md in the whole universe.But all this is immaterial to them. Even am planning to write a letter personally to arr in this issue. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED RIGHT NOW. i need arr to concentrate more on tamil and take only take up innovative projects in hindi. arr please forget subash ghai and other mediocre dir's they are a waste of ur precious time. I NEED U BACK WITH THE SAME VIGOUR AS U USED TO WORK WHEN U WERE TRYING TO ESTABLISH URSELF IN TAMIL. GIVE EVERY SONG OF UR'S A REAL A REAL WACK IF ITS a BEAT SONG. GIVE US BEAUTIFUL FLUTE,SAX INTERLUDES IN EVERY ROMANTIC SONGS LIKE "MARGAZHI POOVE","MUNBE VAA" in hindi compose only vintage stuff like, rdb,bose,lagaan,guru, Be 1000% vintage in hindi and hollywood, Be 1% commercial and a teargerker in tamil.. an album like rhythm,alaipayuthe is a long overdue from u master this is real warcry from a maaad RAHMAN fan. thax guys, bye, krishna Send free SMS to your Friends on Mobile from your Yahoo!

[arr] ****WORLDS NO 1 COMPOSER*******
hi, Guys I hav been saying this all along.ARR not jus deserves a place in the top 20's but he is the NO1 composer the world has ever seen. Consider the other composers in the list.They were fantastic no doubt but in their own sphere be it musicals or conducting orchestras at Broadway.So to put it in a nutshell they come under the "English Musical Sphere" for instance. Also consider the fellow who ranked ARR.He has seen jus one face of ARR his ie his "PENCHANT FOR COMPOSING MUSICALS". Now consider these facts: 1. ARR is the only fellow in the list "WHO HAS BRIDGED THE LANGUAGE BARRIER" as he says music has no language. 2. He has made Indians listen 2 Broadway musicals and made the English Audience take note of the power and substance of INDIAN MUSIC combined with technological advancements.I don't feel this has happened the otherway round with the other composers in the list. When noted actor Kamal Hasan was asked , " If u were born in America u would hav won 2 , 3 Oscars by now, he said that the real skill lies in taking the opponent on, in his own battleground and that one could prove oneself from where they are and need not complain about own place. In my opinion its ARR who has done it hands down.He has faced different situations and has excelled in each one of them. So in the revised list ARR is the No.1 composer considering all his feats.

Re: [arr] How can it be ilayaraja for sivaji??????????????????
hi, Its 100% A.R.Rahman for SHIVAJI,so nobody needs to worry about it.Remember one thing , these kind of suspense phenomenon happen only with ARR as other MD's would have given more than 100 interviews if they had been selected for SHIVAJI. It is only ARR who takes everything easily as he has worked with both Shankar and Rajini before and this not a big achievement for him to be selected for SHIVAJI.Another thing is shankar can find noone except ARR to match his wavelength.HJ did that to an extent but won't suit SHIVAJI as he can compose only for soft films. Even I read in Ananda Vikatan that Vidyasagar is the MD for Shivaji but i just brushed it aside.These things are OUT OF THE QUESTION as this not just a Rajini film but a SHANKAR film n Shankar doesnt comprise on QUALITY n he is not a person to go in for cheap songs for his films publicity alone.

Re: [arr] Re: The Hindu I'view
Hi, Here is the HINDU's review of A Aah: http://www.hindu.com/fr/2005/09/16/stories/2005091602700200.ht Ah ... Aah ... Genre: Romance Director: S. J. Suryah Cast: S. J. Suryah, Nila Storyline: Suspicion enters the lives of a pair of lovers and plays havoc. Bottomline: Love with a code of conduct! Unlike Jeeva's `12B,' which confounded viewers, Annai Mary Madha Creations' `Ah ... Aah Anbae Aaruyirae' (U/A) prepares you for what's to come, with a clear intro that melds beautifully with the opening song sequence. It is the story of estranged lovers re-united by their own thoughts only that their feelings for each other are given a human form. Thus we have another pair along with the original. And if you saw the influence of the Hollywood film `Big,' in `New', in `Ah ... Aah ... ' you notice traces of the Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, Whoopi Goldberg hit, `Ghost.' After `New' Suryah probably feels double entendres are his film's USP. That's why in many sequences you have dialogue obviously censored but clearly mouthed. Also sublime love slips into a mere physical plane very easily. The screenplay is smooth but the story falls into a routine quagmire in the climax, thus making `Ah ... Aah ... ' sag towards the end. How it goes Shiva (Suryah) and Madhu (Nila) represent a permissive mindset, as they are lovers living together. Things come to a pass when the possessive Shiva grows suspicious of his girlfriend and they decide to go their own ways. Suryah the filmmaker, has proved himself even earlier. But the actor has a long way to go. Looking painfully thin, Suryah is also too loud-throated for a young, broadminded man. Strangely his voice that booms into your ear, and his intonation, remind you of comedian Paandu! In fact certain sequences, such as his showdown with Nila, offer much scope, but the actor fails to make use of them because of wrong modulation. However, as a dancer he shows incredible agility. Nila, the debutant, is Suryah's offering of a Simran-like face. Santhanam is slowly but certainly making his presence felt as a noteworthy name in the comedy line-up. But the actor had better watch his weight. You may never come across a psychiatrist like her, but for Urvasi even one scene suffices to make you laugh. How is it the real Shiva suddenly understands that the look-alike whom he has been trying to chase out all these days is not the real Madhu? Also Suryah could have avoided the lengthy sermon in the end. It's not for nothing that Vaali remains the uncrowned king of words. The lyric of the title number in particular is out of the world in content and thought. Hats off to the septuagenarian song-writer! `Anbae Aaruyirae ... ' zestfully sung by A. R. Rahman, the melodious `Mayiliragaai' and the charanam of the `Thala Thala ... ' song are a treat from Rahman. From production to direction, story to screenplay and dialogue to acting, `Ah ... Aah ... ' is a Suryah show through and through. When the onus is immense, certain departments tend to suffer. Here his acting does. Nevertheless you have to give it to him he has tried something different though with the common line of pining love. edwardian10 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hello Manoj,Kindly give the link.Takecare,Jawad.

Re: [arr] ayaiyo song...
hi, Remember 1 thing none of the composers, be it MOZART or RD r SD composed music beyond their territory or for that matter any composer in the world.Can u name any composer in the world who has done such a feat.Only ARR has. What ever u hav said is true 2 an extent n the only reason why we support ARR is that he is "THE MOST GENUINE" composer the world has ever seen. One can make it big in the international scenario only if ur novel in ur approach and ARR has done it hands down not once but time and again.This again proves the fact the Arr doesn't COPY. Last but not the least NOBODY in this world is 100% perfect except GOD and ARR submits all his feats at the ALMYGHTY's feet.This facet of ARR is enough 2 wash any blemish that u think he has.

Itmight not be known to the outside world, but why do you discount thepossibility??A good musician gets good films, good respect from the singers andthose who do business with them and his/her own personality.

EvenMozart *lifted* a tune which was played in a Church and which was keptsecret so that no one else (other than those who come there)experiences its devine bliss. But because Mozart *did* copy it anddistributed the notes, many people were able to enjoy it.Was he right or wrong??What would you say for Rahman's version of "O saathi Re, tere bina bhikya jeena" which was "O Bhaavray...dekho in deewaanonko"If you know tamil very well, sing this: "thanga padakkathin mele"(MSV's number for MGR film), which became one of Rahman's hits: "Ennaviai azhagay". Any non-arr-fan would say: "wow. good xerox technology!"There are some more examples of this kind of ___ (you can nameit), but one thing is for sure...Rahman definitely is blessed with some kind of devine grace.

Re: [arr] ayaiyo song...
hi, Kudos 2 ur wonderful inferences n examples of the RIPPING syndrome prevalent in the so called home 2 Indian cinema Bollywood.Don't ever coin the tag COPYING with ARR.He is the ONLY genuine MD India has ever produced. Even the so called LEGENDS of music like RD Burman SD Burman don't deserve that status as seen from the type of rehashings they hav done 2 attain that position. Finally time and again any dicussion that crops up on such subjects ultimately prove that ARR is knots above the so called legends of Indian cinema.

Make sure u read the following article.. happy reading and this makes me a proud ARR fan..Music it's the basis of a unique reputation that Indian films have. Musicals are what the west likes to call our films. We're accustomed to seeing new audio releases every third day in India. With so much music being produced, wouldn't there be a high chance of repetition? It's safe to say that the music scene is flying high with some great tunes in the recent past. We've heard Shantanu Moitra's dazzling score in Parineeta. We heard Himesh Reshammiya lend his voice in his top-selling album, Aashiq Banaya Aapne. And we've heard Pritam re-energize our souls with the flashy soundtrack of Chocolate. Yeah, we got a lot to be proud of. What if I told you that TWO songs from EACH of those three albums were stolen? Not so proud anymore eh? It's true. Shantanu Moitra, a man who has seemed to captivate music lovers this year with Parineeta has stolen two of the seven tracks. Kaisi Paheli Zindagani was lifted straight from Louis Armstrong's 1951 track "A Kiss To Build A Dream On." And a line from Soona Mann Ka Aangan was plagiarized straight from Tagore's "Phoole Phoole." Himesh Reshammiya's hit soundtrack Aashiq Banaya Aapne has two lifts in it also: 1) Dillagi, which is taken straight from Pakistani pop singer Ali Zafar's "Rangeen," from his 2003 album "Huqa Pani." 2) Marjaawan is a blatant lift from Fakhir's "Marjaawan" from his 2002 album "Aatish." Oh yeah, Gela Gela (Aitraaz) was copied note for note from R. Kelly's Thoia Thoing from his 2003 album "Chocolate Factory." What's sad is the fact that our composers go on and on about cleansing our industry of plagiarism. Yet, they seem to have no problem taking tunes from right across the border! And as you will come to find out, Reshammiya isn't the only culprit in this hideous case. Pritam is known as the King of Dhoom. Well, he stole a track in there also, Shikdum. Personally my favorite piece, I was disgusted when I found out that he took it directly from from Turkish singer Tarkan's "Sikidum." And when asked about the word Shikdum, Sameer and Pritam never once stated the original piece. Where's the justice? In the just recently released Chocolate, yet another hot selling album, Pritam steals Zahreeli Raatein and Bheega Bheega. The former lifted from Pakistani pop band Jal's "Aadat." The latter is lifted word for word from Abrar Ul Haq's "December." As is the case throughout Filmi Music's infamous history, most of the tracks that stand out as classics in the mind's of music lovers are the ones that are plagiarized. You start to question the talent and competence of some of these composers respect is soon lost. To add insult to injury, the originals (especially the Pakistani originals) are far better than there uncredited Hindi versions.Only a fraction of "inspired" tracks are legitimate ones. Recently, Dharma productions paid a hefty sum for the rights to recompose Pretty Woman in 2003's Kal Ho Naa Ho. If others do have the common sense to credit the originals, they'll simply put a name beneath the song. What's in a name? Proper acknowledgment and citations include the name of the original composer, the title of the track, the year it was composed, and to what album it belonged. A name. Ha!Just recently, there was a popular soundtrack that released with all sorts of speculation and controversy. Zeher was the name of the film. Apparently none of the songs belonged to the composers of the album (mainly Anu Malik, who is one of the kings of plagiarism). I guess that's why there's no surprise as to why the score was a success. Anyways, the original score was credited to Roop Kumar Rathod. Is that so? It turns out that two of the popular tracks, Agar Tum Mil Jao and Woh Lamhe belonged to, guess who .Pakistan. I think it was just a way for the Bhatts and Anu

After they talked to you, you felt your mind had been expanded - possibly warped for ever.Harrington is the leader of the esteemed Kronos Quartet, who have been producing extraordinary recordings for 25 years, successfully negotiating the tricky world music/classical crossover (their Nuevo album was truly ground-breaking). The late RD Burman's arena, meanwhile, was the wild world of Bollywood soundtracks - and in his Sixties heyday, he threw everything into the musical mix, from gypsy music to Mexican mariachi, via can-can, psychedelia and swinging jazz.This disc contains Kronos reworkings of some of Burman's best-loved tunes, from 'If People Come' to 'In Dhanno's Eyes'. The Quartet are pushed into rethinking their usual modus operandi, augmenting their quartet with massive overdubs, tabla guru Zakir Hussain and Chinese lute player Wu Man. Burman once said the only music he had no time for was Chinese, so I'm not sure he'd approve. But the only possible singer for the project was his muse and wife Asha Bhosle, who reprises some of his greatest hits here - the collaboration marks a real coup for the Kronos. Now in her sixties, she still has the sweetness and fluidity that made her such a massive Playback star in the first place. (Bhosle was even responsible for introducing rock'n'roll to India, with her hit 'Ek Do Teen'.)Bollywood's image these days tends towards the trashy, and, fittingly, that element is present, though underneath the music packs an emotional punch. For many of us, these songs are from the glory days of Indian cinema, when playfulness was mixed up with serious social issues and many films were epic, Shakespearean stories of family feuds, mistaken identity and forbidden love. All of which is reflected in the Kronos arrangements, which highlight Burman's innate gift for melody. His only contemporary Bollywood rival would be AR Rahman, but Rahman is really the Indian Lloyd Webber; with a melodic talent, certainly, but lacking Burman's wit and panache.Decades before anyone talked about world music or postmodernism, Burman was way ahead of the game, a visionary to whom Kronos have paid a handsome tribute.Burn it: 'Beloved, O Beloved'; 'If People Come'This August, Discover the Birth of Your Independenceand The Magic of A.R.Rahman's Music in Mangal Pandey - The Risinghttp://www.risingthefilm.comhref="">http://www.mangalpandeythefilm.comMusic released: Jul 14, 2005 Movie releases: Aug 12, 2005Explore, Experience, Enjoy A.R.Rahman - The Man, The Music, The Magic.Only at arrahmanfans - The definitive A.R.Rahman e-community.Homepage: href="">http://www.arrahmanfans.comAdmin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]To Subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED]To Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SPONSORED LINKS href="">Christian music artists hre

Re: [arr] Re: Do u feel other MDs have surpassed ARR?
hi, Remember 1 thing a good music fan is surely bound 2 be an ARR fan.Jus becos of the fact that arr is not high profile very down 2 earth doesn't mean that IR or others r better than him. Has IR composed in any other language other than tamil n has been successful? The ans is a big NO.Itz no big deal to be in ur own place n churn out songz n be happy when others call u a genius jus becos u have composed a symphony n jus bcos u hav given some classics.U need a balance in whatever u do.If u call IR a genius jus becos he has composed a so called symphony then take ARR for whom it has become a routine 2 compose for broadway musicals n other projects like Chinese films n what not.ARR always looks for new avenues bcos he knows that churning out tamil or hindi blockbusters is not even 2% of what he possessess. For instance we learn maths at school n college levels.A school teacher teaches us Maths.He is very good at teaching n everybody is amazed by his teaching abilities.One of his students finishes college n takes up teaching in a more easy n understanding manner to the surprise of his students whose standard gradually increases n everybody starts recognising their value. The new teacher gets offers from all over the world 2 to teach n he accepts them n amazes the with his new techniques by breaking old conventions. In spite of a barrage of offers the new teacher hasn't shifted base n continues 2 teach in his place n just goes for guest lectures abroad. So whom do u think is more potent the teacher (IR) or the student(ARR) who has dramatically changed the way the world views Tamil music or Indian music at large.I just gave this wierd example bcos u need view music with another perspective rather than itz glitz or in terms of hits n flops. And for that matter ARR hasn't given 1 nasty stuff in any of his films unlike IR who yields 2 his diectors pressure cos he has become unsure of his future projects.A classic eg. may be Azhagi where there is a 3rd rate nasty song amidst good ones which could have been so easily avoided demeaning his strature of a so called genius.This is not so with ARR cos he sets his own terms while composing n doesnt yield 2 to the directors whims n fancies.In short only a responsible filmmaker will approach ARR.There may be abberations like Star,Parasuram but they only due to ARR's time constraints n busy schedules. I dont think IR or any other MD has that problem n should be churnig out classics all the time.If u cannot remain consistent while composing in 1 language dont in ur wildest dreams compare ARR with the rest of the band.Comparisons must arise only when they hav achieved atleast a portion of what arr has done. ARR is a Padmashree n doesnt display it anywhere.IR is still 2 get one.He has received more than 20 filmfare awards which only 1 can dream of. Hoping for more light in this topic. bye, anushanand <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Ask yourself whether you are a music fan or just a Rahman fan - theanswer to this question will go a long way in defining yourperspective of film music, comparisons like these and how you adapt tothe ever evolving world of music. We all are Rahman fans here, but tocall all the other MDs frogs hopping in their own wells is being a bitinsensitive. Sure, ARR is going places and he makes us all proud, butwe should also learn to objectively evaluate the quality of songs. Britney spears is quite popular today, definitely much more popularthan Mozart ever was, but there is simply no comparison between thetwo. Britney is probably a multi millionaire, but Mozart was buriedin an unmarked grave 'cause he didn't have a cent when he died. Howmuch of an effort has been taken to classify other MDs' songs into thegenres you've mentioned below? Doing this may be a big eye opener. Of all the composers you've mentioned here, YSR needs to get a littlebit more credit than what you've given him. He has come up with someamazing numbers recently, songs that indicate great maturity on hispart. Just because he also uses electronic music doesn't make him 90%Rahman - somebody made a color movie first, doesn't mean that all thecinematographers these days are 'copying' that guy!

Re: [arr] Re: Do u feel other MDs have surpassed ARR?
hi, U can never use the word competition with arr.All other MDs are frogs hopping in their own well.But Arr is one who goes places establishes his class in each and every arena he has entered (eg. hindi,english,tamil,chinese..). Can u tell me one MD who has composed exceptionally well, irrespective of the kind of film or has any MD been entrusted with subjects as varying as arr has faced, be it hiphop(Rangeela,Boys),classical(Sangamam,Lagaan), historical(LoBS,Bose,Iruvar),Musical( Lord of the rings,Bombay dreams,Warriors of heaven and earth),Mass(Padayapa,Tenali,Muthu...) Since he is busy with lots of projects at the same time he is unable to concentrate so much as he used to during his post Roja days.I can name some films to this effect like May madham,Mr.Romeo,Kadalan,Gentleman, Thiruda thiruda to name a few. Consider the other MDs whom u think are the ''SO CALLED" competitors. Harris Jayaraj: He gets the same kind of films and he does his routine job of regurgitating Arr type musical arrangements(like in Alaipayuthe,May Madham) as he has understood very well that only that will keep him in the reckoning. Exception: May be Anniyan or to an extent Kakha Kakha YSR: He is 90% ARR n 10% IR. the same old story same themes same kind of music with ARR kind of orchestration all through. Exception: Kadhal Kondein reapeated same trend in 7g Vidyasagar: He is good in his own way but no way can near ARR. Bharadwaj: Takes hit hindi songs and recomposes in Tamil.No way In hindi though Ismail Darbar and Sandeep Chowta compose well sometimes r good only in bits and pieces and are too far away in terms of competition.But I feel Shankar Ehsan Loy has in them to make it big real time, though they themselves have admitted that they draw inspiration fron our musical genius.Have not faced different kind of films though.

Re: [arr] vintage rahman.........where is he?? a thought!
hi, the reason u liked those songs(roja jeans ) was that,there were no imitations present at that time.Only original stuff from arr . But now imitations have started flooding the market and also arr got busy with his other commitments ,so vintage arr was lost but not lost forever ,he is back now. A Aaa is just the eye of the storm and the tornado is yet to arrive ,as and when he gets relieved of his other commitments.When he fully concentrates in tamil alone no one can come near him.

[arr] Ah Aah Oh Ooh La La
hi, Arr at his best.Aa Aah song is a techno marvel song and the mesmerising factor in that song is boss' voice. As i said before Mayilragai song is a song from planet 9. What i understand now is that when you are composing original stuff,it takes time unlike others (Eg:u no hj,yu,.) Hj directly takes arr loops and composes and takes credit.I have a list where the musical pieces are directly lifted from boss' songs. Ysr ,he directly takes boss' tunes and then says i fav md' are Rd burman,Sd burman. Fools how long can they cheat themselves and the public. Arr has rang the death bell for all these copy managers. hj follows alaipauthe style in all his films irrespective of the theme and ysr ensures that he gives booming sounds keeping all the equalisers at their peak irrespective of the song( thiruda thiruda style). This is a outcry from a die hard arr fan.Plz apologise if i have offended anybody. BUT HEY GUYS ISN'T IT THE UNIVERSAL TRUTH. what do u all say. bye.

[arr] Mangal Pandey -my view
On first hearing,I wasn't impressed but as all of you said rightly ,repeated listening will tune you up. I was completely floored by the classic Me Vaare number and my favourite is Rassiya. The opening track Mangal Mangal is a rustic typical song set in the 1857 ambiance. The Holi song started off nicely but along the way lost the master's touch.I was disappointed by the way the song shaped up cos boss could have taken it to heavenly levels. Al Maddath Maula is a soulful number and deserves full marks. Takey Takey was a hummable no. but with Sukhwinder at the helm boss could have converted the song into an anthem among youngsters.Here again i felt the masters touch missing. Some glaring facts: In my opinion everything about this album was fantastic but i noticed that the arrangement of music was not upto arr's standards.The music didn't have the boss stamp. For eg in Main vari song the music was ordinary with the exception of the strings which wonderfully held the song on tenterhooks(arr touch).Boss has the habit of introducing beautiful musical pieces between the songs but that was missing in this one. Takia song is a wonderful no. but again the music doesn't elevate the song and boss opts for a more simplistic approach.This particular no. is a gem let down by boss. Above all i wish to say that this is a fabulous album considering Hollywood stds but a fractional letdown for arr fans. Regarding the criticism by a member i wish to add the arr fans don't go by hits or flops but by the quality of music.ARR has gone beyond hits and flops,Also give consideration to the kind of film he is composing. I can guarantee you that for a given situation no one can compose better than boss and this a universal truth.
