do not mess with his creative process by referring to 'i want a song which is like the other one' and so on - once it is done, then a template gets formed in his subconscious and however he might try, it wont go away and somehow kills his creativity!
GVM is probably one of the very few who let him do what he wanted - leaving aside the pre-condition of 'i want the guitar placed there' and so forth!
so if we want some mind-bogglingly creative stuff from IR, the benchmark for approaching him would be:
1. just explain the situation to him - and make sure the person explaining is passionate abt what he/she does!
2.articulate the situation with as much visual imagery and finest details as possible
3. most importantly articulate the thought/emotional outcome that one expects from the musical product!
4. having done this, give him - budget permitting - the freedom to choose the recording studio/orchestra!
even if 4 is not possible, the first 3 would ensure some extraordinary music from IR !
if 4 is possible, then we are likely to get albums 10 times or more the quality of NEPV !
may all filmmakers/producers who approach him in the future use the above template!
