GVM explaining how music of NEPV was made. You guys need to read it. Pretty interesting. GVM says, he got everything he wanted.

GVM is a hardcare guitar fan I guess. Yesterday, I watched VTV and songs/BGM was flourished with guitar!
thanks,

Guys ,
The link posted by Krish is the edited version of the interview ..
Please read the full interview of Baradwaj Rangan here ..
GVM has mentioned a lot about Raaja and the music of NEPV
I call it the Raaja Genre
http://baradwajrangan.wordpress.com/...he-raja-genre/
what an interview. One of the best ever!
The fan in Bharadwaj Rangam comes to the fore. Brilliant questions ("What is this new sound you are talking about?"). He did not let the director away with surface level and abstract answers. He really probed every step. Bharadwaj should be commended for this indepth peek. Amazing! This interview is for keeps.
Coming to what GVM has done, its amazing. I dont know how the music will be... but the whole interaction between GVM-Raaja seems to be different from the interactions between other directors & raaja. Not that I heard those interactions... but somewhere, there is a sense of being 'specific' ("first male voice, then I want the guitars to creep in"). I dont know if any director earlier had so much leeway in telling him when and which instrument should come. And what is important is that Raaja has given him that space (signs of *Raaja's flexibility*?). And I like it that GVM said "Stop", after 3 songs. Yes, Raaja could have delivered all 8 songs. But GVM slowed it down with a "take it easy dude.. lets savour this first" :-)
More thoughts later!
Good one from Gautham Menon, now we are getting to know more and more of Raja sir's style of working. All of our expectations are running high on NEPV. Can't wait to hear it, I want to get few CDs and distribute to my friends.Quote:

Contrary to many thinking that BR is "well-exposed" to IR, I think he has sampled him too less (even from 70's / 80's)... too much stereo typing of IR like this flute thingy :mad:
Also, his questions are not that extraordinary IMSO! Any average hubber from this forum would have done the same job, easily (I mean even me)!
adhukku oru NA winning critic thEvaiyE illai :mad again:
With this interview piece, BR is proving that he has "lost it".
Very mediocre!
This 'rAjA genre' thingy is a hub-copyright! If anyone, rajasaranam is entitled to it :-)
Appreciate Gautam for being in sync with the hub :-)
(BRangan using it as the heading for his blog is quite unimaginative)
Hubbers, please don't praise sky-high such mediocre blog posts! Simply because this BRangan had been in the limelight doesn't entitle him to write vAikku vandhadhu about rAsA!
There had / have been much better discussions / analysis of IR music in tfmpage!
IR was playing benefit match for MSV prior to agni* (mellaththiRandhadhu kadhavu).
How on earth would have MR approached MSV?
Absolute trashy writing with simply no reverence to history or the phenomenon that is IR :more mad:
idhukku appuRamum he can't claim the "IR fan" tag!
Also where is Bharathiraja in TF market? (or any market?) Should he be even a point of discussion when talking about IR?
Also, MR left him for sheer political reasons (not like Sridhar leaving MSV or KB leaving MSV. They ran to IR to add commercial value! OTOH, MR was part of the industry conspiracy to kill a rare talent like IR when he was at his peak. thaLapathi is still considered a momentous album! Was MSV in such a position when people feverishly signed up IR? oLaRal...also, at the time of agni*, MSV was not in any reckoning anywhere. Now, while IR is not a force in TFM, he is still considered valuable in other markets! ).
Trashy blog post!
ivanga (MR-BR-vaigayaRA) Odipponadhukku appuRamum, Kamal was with IR. Fazil stuck to him. Balu Mahendra continued with him.
There was this Bala who did a few (award-winning) movies with IR and Sethu was a commercial biggie as well. Thangar Bachan made azhagi and opened his directorial account gloriously.
BRangan is like 'kaNNai moodikkoNda poonai' - correct illustration by V_Sji in another thread :-)
Just for the sake of record, another "new age" director also worked with IR, after proving himself successful with another MD for two big hits (Mysskin).
Though he is not in the same league as Gautam (struggled to release nandalAlA), for argument's sake, he "preceded" Gautam!
Another youth case is Suseendran. He did a huge VKK hit with a newcomer MD. Then did a reasonably successful NMA with Yuvan.
He could've continued with such youth talents. However, signed up IR for ASK :-)
BRangan idhellAm gavanikkaRadhE illai pOla!
(Just for the same "records" purpose, Hariharan-MT had come for the first time to IR for PR, after phenomenally successful with Bombay Ravi for many of their movies prior. Sathyan Anthikkad came to IR only in the late-90's. He was also a big musical success with other MDs prior...to this day, Shyam's 'vaishAka sandhyE' for his nAdOdikkARRu is a big fav with me. His is another case of "reverse")
I remember reading an IR interview in vikatan around the time of KM / devadhai (late 90's).
He said in that interview, that, like a star batsmen, he had always been scoring runs. People in the stadium got their attention diverted from the batsman to a kavarchchi nadigai who entered into the audience area (new age composers).
app_engine, edited version of his interview with GVM in http://www.thehindu.com/arts/cinema/article3536499.ece has the correct dose, that is what we need to account bharadwaj for. he can say anything in his personal blog, which we don't have to care much. Same as you, I did not enjoy much of his 'introduction' to the interview and also 'after the interview'.Quote:

Hope, we will hear those stories from the concerned directors themselves one day but we may not because no one cares anymore to share history :-(
Also, I wonder if GVM has bi-polar disorder?? Though he has all the rights to choose his crew to work with, choosing Prasad Studio and Panchathan Inn on successive movies is bit too much. I am not saying Raja sir and ARR are enemies, but their style of functioning is completely opposite and how GVM makes himself fit into both worlds?

How To Name It
(Music, Audio CD)
Label: Saga Music
Price: Rs. 116
One also shud consider that its IR who refused Maniratnam's offer when he came for Iruvar.
Again it is IR who said no to Rajini when he approached IR for baatshah
A small bit is, K.B approached IR for his movie Kalki (thru some mediator only!) and IR rejected that too
App, rajaramsgi - I am with you on the B.rangan introduction like comparing MR going to MSV but I liked GVM's explanation as he was explaining with complete passion and the surprises which he got during his interaction with IR
Coming back to the forum after a decade.. BR interview was terrible and child like...going after composing nuances of IR, which has been oft repeated a zillion times in various platforms. There is nothing new in the composing process, in fact it remains the same from Annakili days,it is just the creative energy and willingness to experiment which is fascinating at this age.
This guy will clearly go down as India's greatest composer( I am including all genres... far surpassing the trinity and anyone above the Vindhyas)

Kumudam Nool Veliyeetu Vizha - Official Vijay TV Video!!
See the beginning! When they mention about Raja's other language films, see what films they show! Vijay TV :clap:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VqWfhaY-dA&feature=plcp
AM - Anand Mahadevan?
For long I have lamented that IR didnt have a Kannadasan like MSV did. It turns out I had been looking at it too literally - expecting a lyricist like Kannadasan to be IR's Kannadasan. Actually, in this generation, IR is Kannadasan - the Lord and Master of his field, whose works made it clear that there wasnt going to be a challenger in terms of quality in centuries even during the time of the creations - and Kamal is his MSV. Wonderful, wonderful speech by Kamal again on his lover.
The guy who sang Poongaathu Thirumbuma is a great find. Good voice, breath control, combined with superb diction. Nasal male singers, with attrocious Tamizh pronunciation, make way for this new voice.
App,
Thanks for echoing my thoughts with more details :clap:. I have registered my concerns there as well.
sakala,
Thanks for the video. Yes, Kamal's speech is truly wonderful. This is the real bond of love he has for Maestro and his music. :notworthy:
BTW, did I see my favorite Ramarajan, when Madura marikkozhunthu was on? Good to see him after a long time. Another double surprise moment to me today is, as soon I watched this video and was watching TV (again Vijay TV) where they were showing Prasanna-Sneha wedding. I got to see another my favorite Mr. (Mike) Mohan wishing the couple. Double surprise. Can they spring back in action?
His name is Mukesh, an excellent yet simple budding singer. Introduced by ARR in kangalal kaidhu Sei on the Song thee kuruviyai (my favorite) See http://www.thiraipaadal.com/singer.php?SGRID=Mukesh He is much better than many singers singing for Raja, hope Raja liked his voice from that program and will give him a chance.Quote:

மேலும், ஒரு கிளாசிக் விழாவிற்கு நிகழ்ச்சி தொகுப்பாளரை எப்படிங்க செலக்ட் பண்றாங்க, ஆச்சர்யமாக இருக்கிறது.

ராஜா மீது உள்ள பற்றைக் காண்பித்துக்கொள்ள இப்படியெல்லாமா உளறுவார்கள்?
Sample 1: நான் ராஜாவைக்காதலிக்கிறேன், அதனால், நான் ஒரு ஓரினச்சேர்க்கையாளன்! (I love Raja, so I can be considered a homosexual)
Sample 2: மனதோடு மனம் கலவி கொள்ளும்! (love-making between two minds)

lol at parthiban going by the post above...
he always tries to impress ppl/audience in any function...
extreme version of wat kamal says 'unga kaithattukkaaga dhaaan naanga idhellaam seirom' and this RP says 'ungala kaithattavekka naanga enna venaa seivom'...
எனக்கு ஒரு விதத்தில் இது நல்லதாகவே பட்டது. உதாரணத்திற்கு ராஜாவின் பேச்சைச் சொல்லலாம். மொழியை விட இசையே பெரியது. பெயரை திருப்பி சொன்னால் பொருள் கொடுக்குமா? ஆனால் இசையை திருப்பி வாசித்தாலும் பொருள் கொடுக்கும். சுரங்களை முன்னதாகவும், பின்னதாகவும் சொல்லிக் காண்பிக்கிறார். இந்தக் கூத்தையெல்லாம் எப்படி மொழிக் காதலன் கமல் பார்த்துக் கொண்டு இருப்பார்? (கமல் அதையும் சகித்துக் கொண்டே இருப்பார் என்பது வேறு விஷயம்!). இந்த வறட்டு கெளரவம், கர்வம் (மொழியெல்லாம் தூசு! இசைதான் டாப்பு என்ற சித்தாந்தம்) ராஜாவுக்கு பல வருடங்களாக உண்டு. அவ்வப்போது வெவ்வேறு வடிவங்களில், வார்த்தைகளில் வெளிவந்து கொண்டே இருக்கும் அவரது உரைகளில். இனி கமல் போலவே நானும் பாதி வேளையிலேயே எழுந்து செல்லலாம் என முடிவு செய்துவிட்டேன். ஏனெனில் ராஜாவின் பேச்சில் இருக்கும் இனிப்பு சுவையை இதுபோன்ற மிளகாய் நெடி ஒட்டுமொத்தமாய் சிதைத்து விடுகிறது. ராஜா நீங்க இசை ராஜா! (அவ்வளவுதான்) என்னுள் இருக்கும் அந்த பிம்பம் கடைசி வரை உடையாமல் இருக்கணும் என்றால் அவரது பேச்சை முழுவதுமாக புறக்கணிப்பதைத் தவிர வேறு வழியில்லை.Quote:

Naanum idhai avvalavaga rasikkavillai. However this is very tricky statement. First I take lyrics instead of langauge but still I think raaja indirectly said language (sound form) is subset of sound (music) and hence big, small concept comes. So ithoda vittudalam :lol:Quote:
