Dear Fan, Rahman follows a new formula of sound production.It cannot be done by himself alone. It has to be a team work. Same goes to harris. He follows arr in many ways. However, inspiration and how you deviate from the orginal tunes makes the difference. To me ARR gives more time and energy to bigger flims.It does irritates when you hear hindi flims like JJTYN with such fabulous songs and in another way sakarakkati with moderate songs.I have said it earlier and would repeat again. ARR should concentrate in tamil abit more.
Using technicians to contribute is the same as doing software prgramming. Its a whole team effort but final mixing and approval will come from arr. As for your comments on Illayaraja's Mondram Pirai...man you are so wrong.Rahman was only 11 at that time. It was more of assistance to the legend Viji Manuel. Rahman then called Dilip was considered too young and he joined back later after 3 years again with Illayaraja troupe. So please do not degrade mastero illayaraja to such. In todays world of music, there is no composer close to illayaraja. This is proven and compositions comes to him in minutes. I am an arr fan but facts must be clear and remember our boss learnt the nuances from Raja sir to some extent. Today rahman can talk about discipline and stuff he learnt from IR but the other truth is how to compose, arrange and etc was definitely learnt as well. Harris and etc are of the newer generation. They clone arr way of work.Harris is talented indeed. Music in todays world is very different from the olden age. Lets be constructive here and with our facts.
