1] whats your opinion on the analogue digital debate . do you see any
new developments in recording technology offering the bast of both
worlds?
2] have you heard of mr mark levinson who endorses a certain BURWEN
BOBCAT technology which according to him gives the analogue warmth
to all digital recordings ?
3] have you ever toyed with the idea of setting up an affordable high
end audio gear brand to make quality stereos and individual
components ?
4] do you foresee a day where no records are released and artistic
work is simply showcased via different media and all revenues
streamlined along those or live performances ?
5] some leading musicians of previous eras have lamented that music
has no real ability to result in any real action in the real world [
bob dylan & frank zappa most prominently ] whats your take on that
opinion?
6] any plans to reissue quality pressings of your earlier work ,
background scores ?
7] do you foresee a revival of indipop and non film music anytime
soon ?
8] why do you think that the late 90 s indipop rush died an early
death , was it an overdose of bhangra ?
9] do you think regional musical bands will ever be a part of indian
mainstream musical scene ?
10] can we expect pure , intimate unplugged or acoustic tours from
you in the future as opposed to the massive shows [ not that i have
anything aganst them] that you have become synonymous with ?
11] your music suggests your love for improvisation and jamming . how
come we haven t seen much jamming from you outside the studio . any
plans to bless us music fans any time soon ?
12] whats your opinion about extreme musical forms like free jazz ,
death metal & black metal ?
13] most western music legends have resorted to outrageous things in
personal and public lives , in comparision most indian musicians are
well behaved and have decent personal profiles . do you think we have
more integrity as people ?
14] you once stated that most western scores have now become about
ambience rather than any purposeful melodic structure , your slumdog
millionaire is old fashioned in that sense that it allows the music
to shine , do you foresee a trend of reversal of the current norm ?
15] a lot of hollywood composers feel [ john williams for example ]
that it is the primary purpose of a score is to support the on goings
on screen and it doesn t matter if it doesn t have any musical value
outside its context , that if a piece does develop an identity
despite all this [ starwars and indiana jones themes for example ] it
only an added bonus . what your opinion on the issue ?
16] do you foresee songless indian films [ an increasing number of
films are being made ]?
17] progress in your label front please ?
thank you
