I feel he has a unique style which some composers like sandeep chowta and at times Shankar ehsaan loy, have tried to emulate, but they sumhow fall short on quality. I first heard Rahman's music in Roja, though at that time I was too young to appreciate how good it was at the time. After listening to Dil Se..i was really hooked. But what really made me a huge fan of his music was the album 'Taal'. For a long time i thought that Taal's depth, diversity and scale would never be matched..and I was almost right The only person who could outd Taal was Rahman himself. Its been quite a journey for the maestro. Although some of his albums have been quite pathetic (One 2 Ka four, Doli Sajake Rakhna, Mangal pandey..which was a disaster)..and some which bordered greatness (Thakshak, Saathiya, Zubeida)..his music has always offered new sounds and melodies. . I wasnt too impressed with Rangeela..tho it was his first purely hindi album. His greatest works include, apart from the ones i mentioend earlier Swades, Lagaan, Meenakshi, Jodha Akbar and several others A little bit about myself...i was a student of indian classical music for several years when i was younger..thus Rahmans music appealed to me even more. Talking of recent albums, well Delhi-6 is such a great album..it ranks alongside Taal and Dil se in my books. I sincerely feel that Jai Ho did not deserve an oscar. Being an ardent fan of Rahman I feel that he has made several much better songs in the past. Im extremely happy for him, and feel that his award was long due..but It would have been better if he'd got the award for some other song. (eg Luka Chuppi from RDG or Rehna Tu frm Delhi-6...which are both infinetly better numbers) The greatest strength of Rahman is that he is always up to date with technology involving music. Always experimenting with different instruments, creating new sounds and composing new melodies is what makes him such a winnerThere is a great difference in the Rahman of Roja and Bombay, and now. Lastly, I would also like to say that apart from Rahman I simply love Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy's music ..they are No.2 on my list of best composers in the country. .. I do not understand any south indian language as im from Mumbai, so pardon me if I have missed out on Rahmans Tamil films( I know there are many !) Anish.

[arr] ARR Trivandrum Concert shifted to Calicut
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: It is ‘Jai Ho... Kozhikode’. The mother of all live shows, A.R. Rahman Live, the maestro’s first live programme after winning double Oscars at the 81st Academy awards, will now be staged not at the Chandrasekharan Nair Stadium here as was earlier planned, but at the Corporation Stadium in Kozhikode. The programme has also been postponed from April 14 to May 3. Since April 14 was just two days prior to the polling day in the State, there was a realisation that it would have been difficult for the police to provide adequate security cover for the country’s most popular musician. The show is organised by Keraleeyam - Global Kerala Initiative to raise funds for HIV-affected children. For Thiruvananthapuram, however, the euphoria has been punctured. Expectations had reached a crescendo when a two-member team in charge of the technical and production aspects of the Rahman show landed in the city in the middle of February on a one-day recce mission. The team visited the Chandrasekharan Nair Stadium, the main stage where Rahman was supposed to perform live. They had inspected the venue, the ground and the natural acoustics and were generally satisfied. It is the capacity of the Chandrasekharan Nair Stadium that has now blasted the capital city’s chances to host the show. Its total capacity, gallery and the chairs included, is not more than 35,000. In the case of the Corporation Stadium in Kozhikode, it is nearly 70,000. What’s more, the Corporation Stadium is fully covered and has efficient flood lights. To make up for the low capacity of Chandrasekharan Nair Stadium, the organisers had even thought of arranging live digital projection of the show in two other stadiums in the city. Even the combined capacity, it is said, could not have matched that of Kozhikode. But the crucial factor that led to the choice of Kozhikode over Thiruvananthapuram was the former’s proximity to Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. If the show is held in Kozhikode, the audience can have a mix of people from most of the South Indian states. Kozhikode is easily accessible to those in big cities like Coimbatore, Madurai, Bangalore and Mangalore. A.R. Rahman, it is learnt, wants his show to be accessible to the largest number of people. The show is said to be the Madras Mozart’s only show in the country before the start of his second world tour. This means he will not be able to perform in any of the Indian cities for at least five years. The team that had visited the city in February had given an inkling of the kind of show A.R. Rahman Live would be. ``We don’t know what Rahman has in mind, this is the first show after the Oscars. He would definitely want to give this show a completely new feel, something that has never been experienced before. He might even have a unique theme for the show. It’s Rahman, anything is possible,’’ Shailesh, who was in charge of production, said. ``Normally, a Rahman show will have ten big singers and 40-odd musicians. However, for this show, we feel it might be bigger. We will get a clear idea after we meet the man himself,’’ he added. http://www.expressbuzz.com/edition/story.aspx?Title=No+%E2%80%98Jai+Ho...%E2%80%99+for+cityartid=IEvd|xLu4Ss=SectionID=lMx/b5mt1kU=MainSectionID=lMx/b5mt1kU=SEO=A.R.+RahmanSectionName=tm2kh5uDhixGlQvAG42A/07OVZOOEmts Naveen

[arr] 100 Best of Rahman - Compilation rules ! Please add !
From all the Rahman songs I have, I regularly prepare a Play-List / compilation of BEST of RAHMAN for my car MP3 player. Normally one VCD stores around 110 to 120 songs assuming a 640MB storage capacity. I do the play-lists based on following rule, Those who are interested to expand the thread, can add a few practical parameters to refine the final selection of songs. Rules 1. Minimum one song from each movie has to be included Fiza has only one song, but a good one, so no harm in taking it in each compilation. 2. Since ROJA was ARR's first movie and within that Dil Hai Chotaa Sa ( or Chinna Chinna Aasai - in Tamil ) was the first song to be heard in that movie, hence this HAS to be part of every compilation ! 3. Movies first released in Tamil should get preference in Tamil compilation ( Jeans, Minsar Kannavu, Kadhalan etc ). After selecting original scores in that language, then only the dubbed versions can be included next( Desam, Taalam etc ). 4. Instrumental versions can be made into independent play-list so don't add these into vocal play-list. Same goes for Non-Film albums. 5. Max number of songs per play-list = 100 ! 6. For the time being, restricted to Hindi and Tamil only ! So RAHMANIACS ! Make your play list and we will decide how and where to upload all lists ( I will need AMITH / GOMTESH / GOPAL to help in this matter ). Best regards Dinesh Vaidya Pune

Thanks On Mon, Mar 16, 2009 at 3:39 AM, Ramesh R triscod...@yahoo.com wrote: The latest edition of FilmScoreMonthly (FSM) points to a interview by composer Craig Safan (The Last Starfighter) where he says that he thought the SdM score was a breath of fresh air and that the other scores... were technically great but musically boring. He talks more about this in comparison to other scores. Check out the interview at http://www.scorenotes.com/interviews.html (around 11:51 onwards till 15:46) Or the direct link to the mp3 http://www.scorenotes.com/interviews09/safan/craig_safan.mp3 In this month's FSM editorial there's the (expectedly) snarky comment from the editor about the Oscar results- Now on to A.R. (“Top”) Rahman winning for *Slumdog Millionaire*http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/fsmonline/mp3/V14N3/FEATURES/14.3.Jaiho.mp3. I should have been ready for it, but I really wasn’t. I mean, how many years can this happen? I never learn. I should stop holding out hope that the best film music is going to win. But how could I not hope for the best, when there was such a wealth of great composers writing great scores this year: Danny Elfman, James Newton Howard, Thomas Newman and Alexandre Desplat—quite possibly the most impressive foursome of composers nominated in, I don’t know, 20 years? Well, it’s over now, and I think I’ve truly learned my lesson. I vow to begin the process of giving up hope for film music at the Oscars. I trust you’ll all join me. Of course, no sooner do I write that, than I remember that Dario Marianelli (who happens to be featured in this issue) won a well-deserved Oscar in 2008 for *Atonement*. But that’s become a rare exception, and one that doesn’t warrant me getting my hopes up again. Or does it? Damn you Oscars! I guess I’ll see you next year after all… And in response to a question from a reader- Q: How cool was the playing of excerpts from the various nominated scores, especially the close-ups of various musicians, demonstrating conclusively the monstrous miscarriage of justice in the award to Slumdog Millionaire *A: I remember commenting during that montage that it felt like a eulogy for the first four scores, appropriately capped by a handful of banal bars of *Slumdog* pop fodder. *

Khwaja song - my impression (Re: [arr] Let's keep in mind the attitudes and expo
sorry but many points to disagree with. khwaja song might be holding additional value for muslims due to its religious connotations, and for general fans it might have got some high weightage due to the anecdotes of ARR having composed it already and then AG using it in the film. first i would also like to add that though my father did not find it special (in one hearing), it was/is the absolute favorite of my whole family, including my mother, wife and younger siblings. so i must say there is something in it which most of the people are liking. i can agree that part of the reason may be that muslim connection you mentioned, but only PART of the reason not THE reason. and about weightage due to ARR composition, i don't agree as like my family most of the people i have seen loving it don't have much to do with music or ARR. Firstly, the song has some 1:20 initial alaaps that are quire boring to say and kill the entire beauty of song that comes after that. for me those initial parts are absolute integral to the song, the very beauty of the song. also i truly love when he keeps singing khawaja jee, kawaja jee... in the beginning and also at the end of song. Those ya khwaja ji, moinuddin, gareeb nawaz are without any lyrical or music value. So, I think the start itself is badly thought up. same as above. But then the song starts with lovely music BUT, BUT BUT poor lyrics. absolutely agree with you. lyrics are one of the biggest culprits in this case (but only in some places, not all) other being the pronunciation (sadly by our man). A typical lack of creativity in the monotonous, logically-built up lyrics as is usually the case with Javed Akhtar. Khwaja Mere Khwaja Dil Mein Sama ja Bebaso ki Taqdeer Tu ne hai sawari There is no rhyming, no deep devotion. All that dil mein sama ja type of phrases had been used a 1000 times in cheap ladki-pataao songs in 60s. i have to disagree big time. i found them very meaningful, devotional and effective. there is certain beauty in these simple but very meaningful words. pronunciations are also not clear. that bebaso ki taqdeer tu ne hai sanwari, has bebaso and tu ne pronounced so pooorly that one has to strain to hear it and make the meaning of it. rightly said. and especially taqdeer sounds like takhti (slate) or taqdi. ARR should have emphasized more on pronunciation. And then Tere darbaar mein khwaza noor ko mainne dekha has noor pronounced so poorly by our man himself i fully agree. What was so great in mentioning that auliya sar jhukate hain, so what, is that why you feel respect for him? I think the respect should have come from within, not due to seeing how others are respecting him. i don't agree. i must say these lines carry much weight and importance. this is just a way to express how much respected he is. and btw how we learn to respect someone in the first place? i think we learn it by knowing the respected person (what he did that he should be respected) as well as by seeing other respected persons respecting that person. and then tu hai khwaja - rutaba hai pyara chahne se tujhko mustafa ko paya that xxx is still not clear to my aging ears. i fully agree here. this was the most difficult part. it was not clear to me what he says until i read the lyrics on booklet. and lastly that hai mere peer ka sadqa, tera daman hai thama, tali hai bala hamari, chhaya hai khumar tera especially tali har bala was never clear to me, never, until i read the lyrics. boss pronounced it very poorly. I don't get what exactly is the concept. No rhyming, no poetry, just some words have got hammerred in. can only agree about the lyrics and pronunciation. besides that for me rhyming is perfect and singing by ARR is full of soul and spirituality. I would say that ARR's voice is also not as sweet enough as he is famed for, there is a rare shrillness, a hollow in ARR's voice i think his voice suited very well to the song and in fact to all of songs he has sing. i don't feel any shrillness in his voice. Listen to the music between 3:40 - 4:05. That Persian sort of. Now, that is what I call a royal music. rightly said. Compare the above two sounds to the sound at 1:20-1:45. Now this 1:20 sound is what I call a personal sound, lacking royal touch. It is a commoner's, a poor man's sound, now suitable for a period film. sorry but i lost you here. did not get how it sounds as personal or poor man's music. - Jahanzeb --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, V S Rawat vsra...@... wrote: On 3/12/2009 3:11 PM India Time, _Jahanzeb Farooq_ wrote: in fact we watched JA together and during Khwaja mere khwaja as I mentioned that music is by ARR, he said I did not see anything special (sadly enough. may because it was in bad quality. also we know that ARR's music grows but he does not).

I feel he has a unique style which some composers like sandeep chowta and at times Shankar ehsaan loy, have tried to emulate, but they sumhow fall short on quality. I first heard Rahman's music in Roja, though at that time I was too young to appreciate how good it was at the time. After listening to Dil Se..i was really hooked. But what really made me a huge fan of his music was the album 'Taal'. For a long time i thought that Taal's depth, diversity and scale would never be matched..and I was almost right The only person who could outd Taal was Rahman himself. Its been quite a journey for the maestro. Although some of his albums have been quite pathetic (One 2 Ka four, Doli Sajake Rakhna, Mangal pandey..which was a disaster)..and some which bordered greatness (Thakshak, Saathiya, Zubeida)..his music has always offered new sounds and melodies. . I wasnt too impressed with Rangeela..tho it was his first purely hindi album. His greatest works include, apart from the ones i mentioend earlier Swades, Lagaan, Meenakshi, Jodha Akbar and several others A little bit about myself...i was a student of indian classical music for several years when i was younger..thus Rahmans music appealed to me even more. Talking of recent albums, well Delhi-6 is such a great album..it ranks alongside Taal and Dil se in my books. I sincerely feel that Jai Ho did not deserve an oscar. Being an ardent fan of Rahman I feel that he has made several much better songs in the past. Im extremely happy for him, and feel that his award was long due..but It would have been better if he'd got the award for some other song. (eg Luka Chuppi from RDG or Rehna Tu frm Delhi-6...which are both infinetly better numbers) The greatest strength of Rahman is that he is always up to date with technology involving music. Always experimenting with different instruments, creating new sounds and composing new melodies is what makes him such a winnerThere is a great difference in the Rahman of Roja and Bombay, and now. Lastly, I would also like to say that apart from Rahman I simply love Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy's music ..they are No.2 on my list of best composers in the country. .. I do not understand any south indian language as im from Mumbai, so pardon me if I have missed out on Rahmans Tamil films( I know there are many !) Anish.

[arr] Rashid Ali's lucky break
*Rashid Ali's lucky break* Rashid Ali, of 'Aditi' fame, wasn't even supposed to sing the song that's made him a big star today. In an interview to a local website, he said that he was only supposed to play guitar on the song. He said, I was initially just supposed to play the guitar portions of the song. Then Rahman asked me to record the vocals and I just sang it. It all got done in one evening in Chennai couple of years back. I didn't even hear the end product for a long while. Ali says that Rahman's decision to get him to sing the song was quite instant. He says, I've known A.R. Rahman for the past 7 years now. I've done a few concerts with him. I was in India when A.R. thought why not get Rashid to sing this song. Rahman is a guy who makes decisions on impulse and I must add that he has an amazing gut feel about things.” Rashid Ali can now be heard on the soundtracks of Blue and Jaane Kahan Se Aayee Hai. -- http://www.planetradiocity.com/musicreporter/news.php?newscatid=1newsid=1028 regards, Vithur

Re: [arr] Bose
I certainly agree that A.R.Rahman is a living legend..he is the greatest..out of all the people who have won oscars, perhaps Rahman truly deserves it the most. The way he thinks abt music is radical. But, the albums i mentioned as his lesser works..are indeed his lesser worksjust 1 or two good songs dont make a great 'album'...i mean even in the hindi ghajini..kaise mujhe is a superb track...slow, haunting and touching..the best on the album..guzarish is good...but the album as a whole doesnt live up to any sort of quality its pretty shallow and evidently lacks the rahman touch...so in my opinion..thats not a 'great' album...one must give credit where its due..not blindly.

I have been really concentrating more on Rahman's Tamil works of late and have been so enjoying revisiting soundtracks I haven't heard in a while. I need to express my feelings about this song from Sangamam, which really impresses both intellectually and emotionally. The way Shankar M has sung this song is absolutely divine. The infectious dholak rhythm with the Mast Qalandar like melody (not at all copied) makes this song my very favorite from Sangamam. I love it when the second interlude adds this incredibly infectious ghungru rhythm, very similar in pattern to the Taal Se Taal mila, Hai Na, Chale Chalo Mitwa ghungru tracks, taken away, then back again for the final portion of the song. Just pure magic. I truly with Shankar M would sing for ARR again. Heard that ARR said that Mani's next would be kind of similar to the style of Sangamam (folk, semi classical), so we can really look forward to that. Am curious to know what everyone's favorite song from Sangamam is.

Re: [arr] Tasveer Promo
This is not by A.R.Rahman that's for surei dont know why in the promos they are not mentioning who is the MD ? Atleast confusion will be reduced in many people's mind. In Wikipedia someone has added A.R.Rahman as MD so that has added more confusion in people's mind. Refer only the original website of Rahman, other sources are just fake. Its not only with Tasveer even Ashutosh Gowriker's next What's your Rashee? has included Rahman has MD but in reality he is not.

This is one album more than any other which makes me wish that AR does more of carnatic classical based compositions in the future. Each song, each note in this album is par excellence.
