Yeah Boss himself is telling that he has experimented something different.
So why don't we fans give him the freedom to experiment. Also I would like
to repost one of the earlier mails of *Vijay Iyer*, when such discussion and
unwanted debates was going on, when only a 20 second promo of Yuvvraaj was
released.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
"When there are no releases, there are innumerable posts on this group
asking for release dates and superlatives going to the extent of saying "I
cannot wait for XYZ soundtrack and believe me its going to be the best" blah
blah...
Simultenously, as people who manage www.arrahman.com, we keep trying to find
out the most authentic information and since we are also part of the group,
it is always the group which gets the information first hand. Also consider
the fact that A R R himself would have worked hard to complete the
soundtrack.
And then at the end of it all, when after listening to 2-4 lines from a
promotional song, comments like "I cant believe Rahman did this" or "This is
really not Rahman of the 90s" blah blah start pouring, one doesn't know
whether to laugh it away (which I have learnt to do over the years) or say
"Sigh! after all the effort, this is really not warranted".
True, every album / soundtrack may have pluses and minuses - And i say this
for all musicians worldwide but a detailed review and thought sharing can
happen later.
Its only 2 days and only 2 lines from a song from a soundtrack which has 8
songs has been played and we are already debating.
By the same logic, please tell me why Enigma, Deep Forest, Michael Jackson,
Madonna, Nitin Sawhney, All the boy bands, Mark Snow, Jean Michel Jarre or
even S E L, Vishal Shekhar, LP, Salim Suleiman, Harris Jayraj, Ilayaraja
cannot re create the magic, popularity and the huge sales of their first few
albums / soundtracks ??!!.
I go by a logic and im urging you to go by it too which is that if we with
our limited knowledge of music and access to limited people and limited
technology know somuch (in our opinion) surely an artist like A R R with the
vast knowledge, access to so many talented musicians , filmmakers and other
creative people and the latest technology will also know not only as much as
we know but surely 2 cents more."
