hulkster - u r welcome! idhu kooda seiyya mudiyaatti ? :huh:
Hulkster. The best part I feel is that inspite of him being predominantly doing South Indian film music, his music could invoke curiosity and attention on LA based reviewer.
Let god him the way to get his due recognition before his life.
I meant "Let God show him the way to get his due recognition"
If the genius article was founded on real "P O Sh@#" albums like Mumbai Express & Cheeni Kum, then the strategy must pay off for a much more steady and long - lasting flow of global recognition. Set high expectations low to the point that it cannot find the bottom but holds potential for reaching great heights.
irir123,
A great and well planned effort. Hats off to your team :D
But one question..I guess the authors are Namma makkal. Not an American..
How seerious are these articles/journals taken by the people in US ? Or particularly, do people from Hollywood industry read these ?
raja_fan - the author is NOT namma makkal - it is Steven A Kennedy - a seasoned music critic/reviewer who writes for Film Score Monthly - the journal is very professional and they specifically asked for original CDs and not burnt ones which speaks volumes of their quality!
This online journal is quite well-read in LA music circles - its too early to say what the impact will be - we will have to wait and see
irir,
:D Thanks for your effort man. You are absolutely amazing :thumbsup:
Ok the article clearly mentions 80's feel/Style atleast thrice...Iam just wondering is Raaja still struck there :shock: This is shocking because a music reviewer/critic who has never heard Raaja, comes with this comment on his albums of 2000's. Haven't Raaja updated himself :cry: I feel his music is changed from 80's :|
irir123,
Not to devalue your efforts..
but still that American seems to have either used the ideas of some LA based IR fan to review the IR's albums or he just scritinized the article written by an IR fan.
Because an American cannot suddenly comment on IR's regional marketing limitations, Naan Kadavul etc to such depth.
This is what makes me prevent myself from getting excited...
Also I feel very sad that we have to do all this for IR which should have naturally happened..
i.e it is a pity that we have to run with his albums here and there and again and again cry like "Unknown composer, when will west recognize him ?" etc :( :(
raja_fan - do I need to keep reiterating that the article was written by Steven A Kennedy a veterain music critic and not by any IR fan, over and over again ? Steven took his time to do some background research and most likely also visited this forum (we never know), and read a bit about him and his music and then wrote this article
I dont understand, why you should be cribbing instead of being happy about it!
and pls dont make hilarious comments such as things happening naturally - nothing happens naturally, when the CD of 'Mumbai xpress' and 'TiS' HAD to be hunted for, online for several days before getting hold of one and sending the same!
