Maestro ilaiyaraaja news & titbits

[rajaramsgi]

Was there a music program after the Vishnupuram awards function? It don't look like both the Raja sir show and the award function are held on the same stage. What is this music show about and where it took place?

Musings of a maestro

By Subha J. Rao (From The Hindu - December 24, 2012)

"Why classify music? Does music need visual props? How many singers can sing for five minutes at a stretch? Composer Ilaiyaraaja, who has just been chosen for the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award, is full of questions."

Kovai concert

Not sure if this is to be posted here but anyway :

Was listening to this song which came in the soundtrack of the game "Sleeping Dogs" my brother was playing. I realised that the background beats of the song from 0:00 to 1:26 is very similar to thalaivar's unique disco sound. There is even a sitar/veenai music piece playing as well! Anyone knows which song of Thalaivar matches the beats and the sitar?

Song is actually composed by Flying Lotus, an American Artist who is well known for mixing various soundscapes. Song name is "Flying Lotus - GNG BNG".

Watched NEPV. Couldn't stand the movie. No story at all. Came to know a few new things: One of them is that there's a country called Malta--No idea why the heroine went there...

Well. Under the pretense of producing an entertainer, such movies give youngsters an illusion that they can keep fighting and joining with their lovers without worrying about their future. Jeeva joins Samantha after the reception-- what happens to the girl whom he ditched ? If she commits suicide, who's responsible ?

I hope the college goers take such movies just for entertainment.
