Interesting going ons with Water.......
What was released from Varesesarabande yesterday is definitely
different from what we heard back in October. The soundtrack minus
Bangari Marori is a loss, but I am truly swept away by the other
tracks. The added instrumentation in my opinion beautifully
embellishes the songs and does not overwhelm the great singing and
melody. For those who think that the added instrumentation is
awkward, just think that if you never heard the version that came out
earlier, you would not be thinking that the instrumentation sounds
awkward at all. Unbelievably brilliant and mindblowing score by
Rahman and Danna did a good job too, but not as impressive as Rahman
with those 5 songs. These songs by Rahman, including Bangari Marori,
are undoubtedly one of his finest and also undoubtedly one of the
finest compositions to ever come out of Indian cinema.
There is another CD version out there somewhere with the songs that
was leaked out by mistake in October and under the Indian music label
of Saregama. Mahiram was supposed to be the carrier website for this
version. Since the movie was banned in India and most of South Asia,
the soundtrack release under this label with the songs that we heard
earlier is on hold. Let's hope that the movie does release so that
the soundtrack will release. It's a shame that the low quality MP3s
of that version are being sold. If the movie does not release, let's
hope the Indian version soundtrack in high CD quality can be
available. I really do hope that you all in India can gain access to
this music as I do feel very bad that availability is not in India,
the country from which our number one composer gave birth to such
music. India and all of South Asia deserve to hear this beautiful
music.
Bangari Marori is a beautiful piece and I am glad that we got to hear
it earlier. Actually, even though the song is heard in low quality
real player format, because there is hardly any instrumentation and
the focus being on the voice and melody, the song does not suffer
sonically in my opinion with the low quality version. In fact, with
this low quality version, it sounds very raw and innocent, like a
tune heard from olden times when sound quality then was also low.
The other songs, however, do suffer a lot with the low quality
sound. I previously downloaded Bangari Marori and yesterday recorded
it as the sixth song with the rest of the 5 songs on a separate CD
for completion. The songs of Water are going to live a very very
long life and will be a golden highpoint in the career of A.R.
Rahman.
