Dear Wasim, Well said! A good clarification on this part for those who doesn`t know things clearly. I really appreciate it.
To all my dearest friends in this group. I hope nobody will refuse to accept that the New trend of music and Technology of recording has been introduced by our Maestro. I was a big fan of Ilayaraja during his golden days. But one thing i had noticed that even the stereo that was introduced to Tamil film industry was ver late when the technology was ahead of its time. Our Maestro had brokren all the records, Just listen to his composition of Roja, it was ahead of its time. A New trend was introduced with a separate track for Bass and Voices.He is the one who took Indian Music to world levels. Before that even a tamil song was not appreciated by the bolly wood. We should really thank him for the advanced technology which is available in India for the Music lovers. All i want to say that, don`t ever write before you know about the subject. It will take just a few sentences to hurt somebody or to comment about somebody, but to win a heart is not a easy job. Lets together enjoy the creations of our Maestro. Keep listening ,Keep enjoying. Peace be up on him and all Syed.M On 28 Apr 2005 09:04:25 -0000, Wasim B <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Hi, > I am bits and pieces musician myself and let me clarify some of those > things posted by one member. > > 1.
