"Couples Retreat will have American rom-com music with a touch of my Indianness" - Rahman
By Subhash K. Jha, September 21, 2009 - 03:02 IST
The 'formula' works equally effectively across the cultural divide. If in Bollywood Rahman was expected to do a series of Rukmani rukmani after Roja in the West they want more Jai ho from this composing genius after Slumdog Millionaire.
But Rahman in his own quiet way is determined to not pander to western expectations. He made it very clear to the people behind his first full-fledged Hollywood film that he'd compose exactly what he thought to be the most apt music for the show.
Says Rahman, "Couples Retreat will have music that suits an American rom-com there're no real Indian sound in it. But yes, there will be a touch of Indianness in the sound. Otherwise what is the point of bringing me into the picture?"
Apparently there were numerous brainstorming sessions during which the sound of Slumdog Millaionire kept cropping up repeatedly.
Rahman gently but firmly steered the music away from the expected.
Chuckles the wizard of all composing things, "There's no point in doing something I've already done. I've reached a stage where I've to do new things. There're so many avenues to be explored. So Couples Retreat will be their (read: American) kind of music with my touch, done in my way."
Secretly Rahman agrees with those of his admirers and fans who feel Slumdog Millioniare is not among his best work.
Says a source, "He has done far superior work in films like Lagaan, Dil Se, Roja, Zubeida and the forthcoming Raavan and Blue. Friends keep telling him that. Slumdog was done in a hurry. In about 20 days flat. Rahman feels he could've done a lot better. He now wants the West to see some of his best."
Rahman is looking at Couples Retreat as his real launch into the West.
May be a really obvious answer, but may I ask, why is there a Tamil song for Couple's retreat which is a Hollywood film?
Also let me take this opportunity to mention the mind blowing tracks that I have heard from this album so far. Thanks
Why can't there be a Tamil song in a Couples Retreat? There have been other instances of this, e.g. Chaiya Chaiya in Inside Man and Swasame in The Accidental Husband. The people who scored the music for these films thought they were apt for their particular scenes or opening credits.Quote:

Other world music (eg Spanish and African) are also used in Hollywood movies with no direct relevance to the content of the film, so why not Tamil?
Hi there, I wasn't saying that it is a bad thing.
I was just wondering whether it was some joint Tamil film or what not.
Genuinely would be interesting to see the chemistry between this track and what's going on screen.
May be ARR wants to project tamil language that way...There are lot of musical exchanges going around the world. Our people have embraced styles like Sufi,Pop,Rock,African pop,rap,Latin, Spanish,Irish and so on.....So its now their turn....Quote:

Rahman loves experiments...Isn't it???Its a big gamble...We have to wait for the movie to see if it has any Indian connection...
He could've very well composed a hindi song for that. Why a tamil song? Thats ARR for you. Fitting reply for those jobless ppl who said that he has forgotten tamil.
This is actually very interesting because Hindi and Punjabi lyrics have been quite prominent in western music, maybe AR is trying to popularize Tamil.
yeah, he wants to give a new 'style' for the western with introducing Tamil into the picture. Enough with French, Spanish, Hindi and what not, let Tamil take its walk of fame now ! :)Quote:

I don't mind if he reuses his old classics in Hollywood movies.... His old songs can be very good orchestral pieces....
Chutti TV has already started using the intro music (Newyork Nagaram) for its programmes.
Nammalai vida fast ah irukkaangappa!!

"ACADEMY AWARD WINNING COMPOSER A.R. RAHMAN
MAKES FIRST FORAY INTO AMERICAN COMEDY FEATURE FILMS
WITH THE SCORE FOR "COUPLES RETREAT"
COMPOSED AND PRODUCED BY RAHMAN, "COUPLES RETREAT" FEATURES NEW SONGS "NANA" AND "SAJNA"
LOS ANGELES, CA - September 24, 2009 Academy Award-winning composer and internationally renowned musician A.R. Rahman makes his first foray into composing music for an American comedy feature film with Universal Pictures’ forthcoming romantic comedy, Couples Retreat. The soundtrack will be released via Relativity Media digitally on October 6, 2009, and in all retail outlets nationwide on October 13, 2009.
For Couples Retreat, A.R. Rahman has conjured up the sounds of a tropical island oasis fusing the laid-back rhythms of island music along with his gift for creating golden melodies. The opportunity to work on Couples Retreat was a welcome challenge for Rahman who created a score that complements the film’s light-hearted tone with just a hint of his signature "Indian" sound.
""There are so many musical avenues to be explored," says Rahman. "I’ve wanted to try new things and for a long time and had hoped to have the opportunity to venture into American comedy. This film presented a lot of creative challenges and was deeply rewarding to be apart of. "
A.R. Rahman captured the international spotlight after winning two Academy Awards® for ‘Best Original Score’ for his work on Slumdog Millionaire and ‘Best Original Song’ for "Jai Ho" (Music by Rahman, Lyrics by Gulzar). Rahman also became the first Indian artist to win a Golden Globe for ‘Best Original Score’ and took home numerous awards including the Critics Choice Award, Los Angeles Film Critics Award and a BAFTA for Slumdog Millionaire. Rahman’s score and soundtrack received critical praise from publications including Rolling Stone, Time Magazine, The New York Times and The Los Angeles Times.
A true artist who has redefined contemporary Indian music, A.R. Rahman is an icon in the world of cinematic scoring. He has been hailed by TIME magazine as the "Mozart of Madras" and was included in 2009’s TIME 100, which profiles the world’s most influential people, as well as Fast Company’s 100 Most Creative People in Business. He has also earned the designation of being one of the world’s top 25 all-time selling recording artists with sales of 100 million albums worldwide.
Couples Retreat is directed by Peter Billingsley and stars Vince Vaughn, Jason Bateman, Jon Favreau, Malin Akerman, Kristin Davis, Kristen Bell and Faizon Love. Based on an original idea of Vaughn’s, the comedy follows four Midwestern couples who embark on a journey to a tropical island resort. While one of the couples is there to work on their marriage, the other three set out to jet ski, spa and enjoy some fun in the sun. They soon discover that participation in the resort’s couples therapy is not optional. Suddenly, their group-rate vacation comes at a price. What follows is a hilarious look at real world problems faced by all couples. The film also stars Kali Hawk and Jean Reno.
Undress is awesome (I meant the track)
