IR's New albums - Ver 2008

Dont know how far this news is true! IR composing for another serial (directed by BR) to be aired (soon) on Kalaignar TV. Don't know if IR is only doing title song or even the BGM, but BR doing a "mega soap" is a bit surprising.

Whenever I read "vaaram oru paasuram" ,Sujatha's one page write up on any poem of the ALwars in Kalki weekly, a wishful thinking ,what if IR composes for these immortal works instead of scoring for inane movies like "madhu does cross my mind

krish244,

That is an old news ! :)
Going by the track record of Kalaignar TV, nothing great to look forward..

Why do you guys worry about IR composing for TV serials.He is not going to do BGM for every episode.It is going to be the title song alone.That was the case with the other tv serial on kalaignar tv also.

lot of MDs have done so and it definitely is not going to degrade his reputation.

IR has composed a (opening) piece for "Classical Music in the Digital Age" event to be held on March 5th at Earlham college, Indiana.

please anybody give me the link to download mp3 ir's 'how to name it'

i feel a lot of complaints regarding "irritating pauses in his songs, non-sense synths and lack luster/insipid interludes" can be put to rest once u listen to AMMA PAAMALAI devotional album released by Welgate.ENAKKUL rendered by ayya himself as the opening song has the tabla and violins we all miss a lot.I felt as though Ayya was sitting with Mani Ratnam and Vaali inside Prasad deluxe sometime back in 1987 when this song was composed.Ofcourse all the other beautiful compostions have been destroyed to the hilt honestly by Bavatharinis immature,emotionless,bakthiless voice and rendition.A great album which should have struck the right chords if Chitra or Janaki Amma had lend their voice.

rajaalltheway,

What is AMMA PAAMALAI ? devotional on Goddess Mookambika ?

Regd Bhavatharini's rendition, even geniuses like Raja are not able to set aside their "Puthra paasam" for doing justice to their work :(

I still remember the way bhavada sang in Andrum Inrum...mayil pola and Sendoora poove ...was very bad..
And Janani for TIS release...

KKP-> Solla Varum Kadhal and Maalai Nila are outstanding inspite of the familiarity that you find with other songs. Both these songs grew on me on multiple listening.

ABt Bhava , i feel she sangs the devotional songs well, but a bit bland for filmi songs.

She was good when she sung "Enakkoru Annai Valarthanal Annai" at a recent event.

I need the album name of this song, pls..

Sanjeevi,

It is IR's "Geethanjali".

Contains few more excellent songs like "Kamaakshi..", "Nee poorani.." etc. Worth a buy, but not sure if it is available still..

Surprise Surprise

IR's Geethanjali and Ramana malai are available in landmark city centre

Kamakshi was reused in Atma film. The song is Varayo sung beautifully by Mano

Sadly today Mano has been forgotten..what a voice..a singer with 15000 plus songs...

Ask everyone they wud say their Fav singer is SPB KJY Hariharan and i have never heard people saying Mano

kameshratnam,

you always say landmark city centre :)
Which city ? Chennai or Bangalore or any other ?

Being an ardent chess fan, I remember Richard Reti's comments on Akiba Rubinstein's games as a perfect architectural monument well supported by perfectlty placed chess pieces that even a single piece dare not be removed from the plan. I totally believe this to be true from analysing hundreds of Rubinstein's games - he is an epitome of chess perfection.
Similarly, I see that IR's songs to be gigantic pieces of composition, with every instrument working harmoniously with others and giving us a soothing effect. For instance, the Uravenum song, where IR uses even humming and whistling as part of the song grows on us so much, that whenever I think of the song, I can even recollect the entire song with interlude music :)

guys any news on 'Pazhassi raja' ?

Dubbing was under way. Going by the pace the movie is made, doubtful that it will hit screens by Vishu next month..

how abt the music release of pazhassi raja ?

"Aa Dinagalu" won two awards in Udaya sunfeast awards. Don't know if IR won an award.

Manomurthy has won the best MD award for Cheluvina chithara.FYI this was a remake of tamil movie Kadhal and as usual the songs were Duly copied line to line (ofcourse without crediting the original composer).

Sathiyan-Mohanlal's movie titled as "Innathe Chinthavishayam"

I have heard the kannada version (ditto) of "Unakkena" song, but not sure about others. Are other songs also copied?

Its really pathetic that the award should go to copied music (that too exactly ditto) rather than original ones. Of course we know about IR's music in "Aa Dinagalu" is original? What about other nominees...are they also original? Must be I guess.

thanks,

Krishnan

The worst part is the hero became an over night star with this and you should have seen the people lauding the director for his efforts..Cannot crib about this because even here iN TN, we have master remakers.

Kadaluku Mariyathai - Anayathu Paravu
Pokirri - Pokiiri
Chandramukhi - Full Copy - Claimed to be different
Velli thirai - Udayanu Tharam
Kuselan - Kathai parayum Pol
Include 90 % of the movies of Remake Ravi

The problem ( or their fortune ) of Kannadigas is that their general interest on Cinema is far less than what you see in TN or AP or Kerala.

So they really don't peep much in to behind screen things like who inspired/copied whom etc. I think they just watch movies and go back to their business..

Landmark and saraswathi stores have a few copies of the music messiah left with them..

Also they(ECHO) have now reduced the price to 125 for each copy of IR's Special...titled IR sings...4 cds ...all solo songs of IR

and 100% of Remake Raja

i shudder the way they killed "raakkamma kaiyya thattu"... !!! IR composed it with THAT level of King's orchestration and they werent able to reproduce it (atleast in patches) even after 15 years.. shows volumes of genius work by IR and room (in fact, many football grounds) for improvement in Kannada cinema/music.

oru complete industry'ave ippadi pottu aniyaayamaa thaakrathu enakku ennamo seriya padala :(

The other songs are different and I like them more than "UNakenna" song. Only "Unakenna" song was there in the remake. But I feel Mano Murthy is a good music director (Mungaaru Male) . I haven't heard other kannada soundtracks.

There have been good reviews for KKP. One of the magazines said ..in the age of remix and copying..here we have an album which is full of fresh music
