Subject: [arr] TO Vijay Iyer - How ARR
Composes tunes ???
This message is mainly to Mr Vijay Iyer and those associated
with ARR closely as working team.
I am keen to know as to how AR
Rahman approaches any movie assignment.
1. What comes first in case of
ARR, the tune or the lyrics ? 2. What does he prefer, first the tune or
the lyrics ? 3. Does he keep a song bank from which the movie producer
chooses some or all of his songs ? OR do the producers demand all new
tunes ? 4. During actual recording, say for a duet, are 2 or more singers
present at the same time or they record individually as per their
lines ? 5. Does ARR use substitute singers to present the song to the
main singer as a guideline ? 6. If he gets inspiration of a tune, how
does he store the notations, that is, does he use a paper and pencil or
directly goes to the recording equipment and records the tune on a walkman
or laptop ? 6. When do the musicians ( instrument ) and chorus singers
record their parts ? At any given time, how many participate in the
recording process?
As a keen follower and fan of ARR's art, I am
keen to know the logistics of song recording ( what goes behind the scene
). So if the information requested is not a secret one, I request those
close to this process with the BOSS to enlighten us.
I understand
that Rahman himself reads some of the messages of this group. I hope he
goes through this one and answer to my questions if he can.
But to
answer, if he has to spend time and that means recording one song less,
then I feel, these questions are better left un-unswered !
SO VIJAY
IYER, YOU DO THE HONOURS !!!
