What an amazing explanation and method to hear and single out the basslines. I play the piano and now picked up the bass for about a year and can totally relate to your teachings. Thank you so much for this wonderful video! Subscribed instantly! Proud of our tamil music.
As a kid when other kids used to beatbox to ARR songs, I used to mimic the bass lines but they would not understand what I was doing lol. Only if I had mics those days.
@@rohitkanisseri4822Bass or any other instrumental lines since almost all folks in general would like to hear is vocal melodic lines in general rest they'll consider as accompaniment they don't care and treat as white noise. Whereas me who's really into music composition & arrangement and also into instrumental in general since a kid since I'm a full jazz fan, used to listen to stuff my dad used to keep on stereo like many hard bepop jazz, modal jazz & all. So i loved to focus on instrumental lines and interludes of ARR music cause that's what i love the most about his is his almost very huge, varied, very unique & engaging instrumental arrangement that i think no other indian composer does like him. Everything is so unusual & unique about him. I get so obsessed about certain embellishments he uses, or why he accented that particular percussion beat in the last antara of *Ghanan Ghanan* like the percussion in that track in general is very visceral and big! But just at that part he accented it just a tiny bit more, i know its a very tiny part but i love it so much! Even to this day! Any other composer would've left that beat as is since he thinks its good enough base to build melodies on but not ARR he still has to bring in something fresh after each interlude in the instrumental arrangement is what i like to strive for as well in my noodling compositions i like to play in my own free time apart from my work.
@@albhem_eh true.. ARR's interludes are amazing and I'm a big fan of those as well. If you like bass, I recommend Ilayaraja's melodic bass lines.. and they are often very complex but fit in just right with the songs!
Thanks.., happy to hear that you enjoyed this! 🌸🙏 I thought it was going to be a quick one-day production episode… ended up taking 3 weeks of rewriting and re-shooting to get the clarity…!
This "muffling effect" happes because of a phenomenon called "diffraction". Basically, sound waves (and any kind of waves in general) can turn around objects of size similar to their wavelength. So, longer wavelength waves turn are not affected by larger objects whereas shorter wavelength waves are reflected or absorbed by larger objects. Bass has longer wavelength, thus is able to propagate to a greater distance where as mids and highs are reflected or absorbed easily. This is the same reason why woofers have to be larger in size to deliver a powerful bass . It is also the same reason why 2.5GHz WiFi has a longer range as compared to 5GHz WiFi. It is also the reason why 2G mobile signal has more range than 3G signal than 4G signal than 5G signal.
Thanks so much for the kind words 🌸… I hope one day I have greater reach towards international audience… because our wonderful composers are the world’s finest… I would like the world to know them better…
Thats why ARR is brilliant. The harmony and perfection in Rahmans compositions. 1994-2011 Prime Rahman. And 2016 with Mohenjo Daro. Isaipuyal ❤. Also the unmatched Soundengineering by Hariharan Sridhar 🤯
Wow, i knew something is special is unique and special about sir A R Rahman's composition but your video has now given me that clarify. Such simple but long lasting bass lines. Again amazing work by ARR since so many years.
Same thing happened to me, when I was a child and I recognised the bassline of the song "Dil hai chota sa" when someone was listening to it in my neighborhood in downtown Srinagar, Kashmir. It was 1994 n at that time, I was a kid n had no knowledge about music but the bass of the same song inspired me and I decided to opt for music on that very day. Legendary A R Rahman is the only person in this sub continent who has taken bass effects to the next life. And thank u for choosing this aspect of Uyire... Loads of respect from Kashmir 💐
Absolutely captivating explanation! The 'muffling effect' really hit me when I experienced it while listening to 'Mustafa, Mustafa'. I was just a few blocks away from my neighbor blasting it on his speakers. 🎶
Love reading personal real life examples. There were other mentions of Mustafa muffling effect too! Mine was Uyire… 😂 morning noon and night boom boom boom! We would be like: “oh no that boom boom thing started”! It’s fascinating when it is not a readily identifiable catchy one and then a bit later you realize “Omg! That wasn’t a noise, that was the bass from Uyire”
@@elroy7351 Kannalane from same album is full of variations… I’d say he does both, repeating and varying… but probably, like you say, Raaja sir does majority varying bass…
These are the best endearing comments on UA-cam… “I’m Pakistani but I love India” or “I’m Hindu and I love Arabic music” “I’m north and I love the south” Everybody loves those comments… It is special to receive them… it is basically like James Cameron’s “I see you” dialog… everybody loves to be “seen”… this is what we need for a better world ❤️🙏 … We need to “see” other cultures deeply, so thank you for your comment!
just experienced the bass guitar that is mild and vibrating in hooo lalala from Minsara Kanavu.. specially in the lines Mazhaithuli mannil vanthu . the reason y we still celebrate Rahman of 90s
Yay! The UA-cam Algorithm is working! The right content creators and the right audience are getting matched! To be fair, this cannot be called as an ARR specialty because muffling effect will happen from anyone’s composition… it’s just that this was my personally eye opening experience and I shared… The decode videos about Ponniyin Selvan on this channel are truly about ARR work in depth… watch it here: ua-cam.com/video/ld9hnpKHGOw/v-deo.html
The actual specialty may be the degree to which they isolate the bass line from the low frequencies of other instruments like drums during ARR’s mixing process… someone who works closely with him can enlighten us…
As a kid unable to explain this using a DAW was explaining bass patterns to my friends. Unfortunately, none of them had music knowledge, sense of frequency or absolute pitch and looked at me like an idiot. I can at-least now tell how ARR used the EQ techniques to instill his music into hearts of many music lovers.
Great video! thank god for youtube recommendations. Could you also a do similar one for minsara kanna from Padayappa, the bass line used in that song is just next level! also how Arr used waves in Kadhal Sadugudu. Genius is an understatement.
Top bassists around the world, create their base lines of their own accord, doesn’t need a MD to tell them how to do it. Your video made my day madam, it’s fantastic. Have a nice day 👍💐🙏
Yes… agree… I’d imagine there would be so many styles of getting a song out… In this channel, I’m just making videos keeping in mind “what excitement will a non-musician feel when they discover interesting details about the music they love?” So some of this content may get this response from the professionals: “why such a fuss over a basic thing?” It’s because the primary audience is the non-musician music lover! Glad u enjoyed! the comments left may be the only motivation for small-to-medium creators like myself. So thanks! 😃🌸
So kind of you madam, to spare your valuable time to give a reply long enough 🙂 I met Mohini Dey a couple of times at music expo Mumbai some time ego. Working with ARR she automatically knows, out of the hundred and one, which combination ARR would prefer. Watching her performances I’m spellbound, she used to be so simple those days. Your videos are an enlightenment to me thank you so much madam 👍💐🙏
Amazing... Just wow!!! . This is the first ever video am watching thats made by you... Hats off. You have touched a very impressive, sensitive aspect of sound in film songs. AR no doubt utilizes technology in his music but it would be immature to say his music is technology driven. He has tremendous understanding of sound say by birth or whatever. It is this understanding that makes his deliveries so punchy and peppy. I could recall only one composer who unfortunately passed away very early without getting to see todays technology that would have been truly exploited by him for music lovers. Yes am talking about RD Burman. He used bass guitar in Bollywood songs at a time when other composers did not even bother to understand the potential of bass guitar. RDB once had said in an interview "Remove the bass sound tracks from my compositions and I would be lost in space..." So true. Well. Am in no way comparing any composer to other. Each stalwart has contributed in taking music to next level. It was RDB and Illayaraja yesterday, ARR today and maybe someone else tomorrow. Well. Thanks again for this excellent video. Ableton gives a good interface to understand whatever you have tried to explain above. ❤ From Pune.
Thanks for your detailed thoughts and support. 🌸 if you like the topic of bass, you might enjoy this fun video, where Filmy Kuthu songs are compared to Cheese dosas… Bass is the cheese 😂. (Guess Why?) This is the link: ua-cam.com/video/W4iKhm3J2Ag/v-deo.html
To know BASS please listen to Raja songs, where he writes separate notes for bass in each song. Samples : kadhal oviyam, Idhu oru nilakaalam, Ponvanam paneer thoovum, Paattu ingae, Thumbi vaa.. and so on.
Loved your scientific explanation and practical applications. I am so glad UA-cam recommended you! Subscribed right away! I would love for you to do series of all/few Roja songs. I feel like they marked a new era for Indian film music in multiple ways : musically as well as crossing the North South musical barrier. Would be great to analyze that time frame.
That's awesome as usual sis😍😍😍 Got back to my nostalgia of How ARR Pulled me into light music... Because it was only after chinna chinna aasai i showed interest to singing 😂😂😂 Was on a tree along with other mischievous 5 along with me on a deewali day when i heard the first beat of the sound with bass 😅😅😅 Jumped from the tree , and went running home to listen to that ...THE SUN WAS RISING AND MADHUBALA STARTED CHINNA CHINNA AASAI🥰🥰🥰 THE BASS 🤩🤩🤩 (Earlier music composers have really given great bass work but the Quality of that Sound was not enhanced...) Loads of love and prayers to SuKrish 😍💞🪷
Thanks for that wonderful story! 🌸🌸🌸 Jumping down from the tree is the best part 😂… Cant imagine what it feels like to be able to make so many people so excited?!
Ma’am you have the inimitable rare disposition to shrink versatile genre of abstract musical secrets and present them with absolute clarity. Something soulish about your presentation which seamlessly connects the head and the heart! God bless!
Keep doing more of this analysis videos, I've been following you for a long time and i would like to see more of thalli pokathey, puthiya manitha type videos
Last tip was lit😂 as a bassist I've had a lot of difficulty hearing the bass parts of old tamil songs while transcribing them. That tip would be useful
Nice explanation madam. Wish to know more about music from your channel. We use to increase the bass volume to feel the effect. Your explanation with a software demo is interesting. Keep it up.
😊 Thanks… the first hope of this channel was that non-musicians would appreciate music better… happy that this content is beginning to feel useful for musicians also…
Wow, why hasn't your channel popped up in my search before? LOL. I've been on the lookout for music review channels, and here you are! I'm really digging your content, big kudos to you. There's so much to explore here, I can't wait to dive in!
@@suvaissance Exactly what I was looking for! I love how the creator represents music metaphorically, and how they represent stories with the help of music.
Hey Krish, just watching your videos one by one... It would be great to have a detailing video of kandukonden kandukonden song, which has a small tick sound, and same kinda sound i found in edho edho ondru song from "enaku 20, unaku 18" movie.. Btw, your details are really interesting and awesome..❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for great explanation. I wish similar videos on how movie melody songs are created and would like to know is there any such common patterns or hidden techniques implemented hy musicians
Glad you enjoyed! There are psychological tricks everywhere… Composer Harris Jayaraj is a master of creating a certain set of sounds which we associate with “modern youth”… after his era, the use of “wohu wohu wo” increased… (La la la or roo roo roo would be older 80’s fashion compared to that). Little things, big things… so many techniques they use…
You are an audiophile, without any doubt. What IEMs and headphones do you use? Is there any DAC & AMP combo that you would recommend? I use RME ADI-2 DAC and Focal & Audeze headphones. I have a couple of IEMs Campfire Dorado, Io, Polaris and BGVP MD8,
Lower frequency has long travel and requires thicker material to absorb while high-frequency can be absorbed by curtain also. Therefore low frequencies are felt by neighbors. When I go to toilet during song or movies I only feel low frequencies from my subwoofer.
Most of the arr songs contains the ostinato that forms the base of the song for rhythm section that caters a grandeur in vocals and the song looks wholesome without the emptiness of sound or a pause anywhere in between the song.. this was told by a musician recently in some other platform. Now, you have brought that into layman understanding and also a practical method of how to identify that pattern. This is amazing.. great effort is seen here to make this episode. Outstanding.. if u can interpret the song periyone from adu jeevitham and vida karo from chamkila, pls make them.. eagerly waiting to see your brilliant interpretations Ma'am.. thank you for this infotainment🙂🙏
If you hear munbe vaa, first 1 :30 min the base will be different and unusual but after 1 :30 we can hear some unusual drum kick, that bass hits different, whenever I listen to this song I focus on it and whenever neighbours playing this song this unusual bass kick will be heard outside and not the vocals and can easily guess they’re playing munbe vaa
Interesting. I like your discussion on the practical implication. However, I did not quite understand why you defined uyire's bass line as unrecognizable (even when compared to urvasi). Isn't this bass line one of the most iconic?
Yep! Sure… one can argue that it is iconic… there is some subjectivity in this… in fact one other person I spoke to while testing the episode for clarity asked the same question as you… But others didn’t. My guess is that if you line up a 100 people who lived in the 90s era and play the bass alone for Urvasi and Uyire, Urvasi would be more popularly guessed. More would be able to hum Urvasi bass from memory too.
Those who want to experience music in pristine quality , please get a IEM if not headphone. They cost cheaper than your TWS and sound as good or even better than high end TWS like Airpods.
Hello madam. I have accidentally met with this video(Uyire)and it made me to watch all of your videos. Your observation, decoding and explanation are so thought provoking. And from this i got inspired and wanted to ask you something about my observation. Colours seen in your videos. 1. Pink : A) Your channel name(Logo), B) Your background colour and C) The colour of your Jacket(Coat). 2.White : A)Your channel name at the corner, B)White keys in the piano, and C) The text or boxed items displayed for our understanding. 3. Black: A)Black keys of the piano. B)Colour of the garment wore under the coat. 4.Reddish Pinkish tint: A) On the wall behind you, B) Colour of your lipstick (Could not see clearly because of the background color) Is there anything that could be decoded from my observations. As the master of decoding most unobserved intricacies, i humbly want to know is there anything you colud tell us about keeping all the same colours constant in every video. Thank you madam.
Hahahaaa you are in my tribe. 🙌😂 Yes the choice is deliberate… Rather than typing answers here… I will let it happen as an episode, it will be more fun 😃. I will remember this comment… 👍
So kind of you amma. A small request from my side. I would like to know why these songs keep on going in my mind. Something like my all time favorites. 1.Newyork nagaram from Nuvvu nenu prema or tamil version. 2. I Giorni by Ludovico Einaudi. 3. Planet earth 2 suite by Hans Zimmer(4:30sec) 4. Arrival of birds theme of Crimson wing a Disney nature documentary. 5. That....ARR humming in the song Sankuratri kodi(Sandai Kozhi) 6.Title music of Paperman short documentary of Disney, to mention a few that have striked at this moment.
You can easily compare Uyire from Bombay to Thoda Thoda from Indira. As we go lower down the frequency range, the sound gets more omnidirectional, this is the simple science behind this phenomenon. That's why placement of sub-woofer in a home theatre can be tricky to get right otherwise the bass can get boomy due to the side wall reflections (for which we use bass traps).
Wah..Awesome example with awesome bass… For me, Vadivelu version made it legendary (even though it’s the comedy troll version)… if it gets re-used in other creations, it gets its status a culturally iconic creation!
@@suvaissance very true! I used to hum these basslines a lot for no reason sometimes, like "Katre En Vasal & Thaniye Thananthaniye from Rhythm", and in Hindi "Dil se re & Satarangi re from Dil Se", "Dil Chahta Hai & Thanhayee from Dil Chahta Hai" are a few of them.. crazy unique basslines with the exact value you are talking about... also, I just visited the Ghajini song after commenting, and believe me I too remembered the Vadivelu version so much... :D
I heard a lot of songs in my childhood at 55 years back the analog period not digital.try the song engirintho aasaigal from chandrodayam and find the base instrument definitely not electric base guitor or rytham generator.did you hear songs by valve radios from neigbours house?
What an amazing explanation and method to hear and single out the basslines. I play the piano and now picked up the bass for about a year and can totally relate to your teachings. Thank you so much for this wonderful video! Subscribed instantly! Proud of our tamil music.
Thank you! Happy to hear… me too, so proud of our composers! 😊🌸

AR Rahman is like MCU of music. You never know when he uses a style in some song, and entirely references it decades later!

Very valuable lesson oh my this will absolutely change your students
Thank you! 😊🙏
Keep doing more of this analysis videos, I've been following you for a long time and i would like to see more of thalli pokathey, puthiya manitha type videos
Thanks for the inputs!
Last tip was lit😂 as a bassist I've had a lot of difficulty hearing the bass parts of old tamil songs while transcribing them. That tip would be useful
Nice explanation madam. Wish to know more about music from your channel. We use to increase the bass volume to feel the effect. Your explanation with a software demo is interesting. Keep it up.
Keep making this type videos. .Thanku❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻
What an amazing explanation! ❤
Thankyou Mam for this depth analysis ❤..I'm sure it will inspire many musician's to create good music 🙌
😊 Thanks… the first hope of this channel was that non-musicians would appreciate music better… happy that this content is beginning to feel useful for musicians also…
This is my first video of yours. Instant fan. Love such videos ❤✨ Beauty of UA-cam. Thank you for the recommendation
Welcome to Suvaissance! 🌸 Thanks for leaving your comment! That’s my reward for making these videos…
Kaadhal desam- "mustafa mustafa"
Good Lesson 💙💙💙
very interesting observations and explained well with hi-cut audio filtering.
😃🙏
Awesome explanation, Thank you
Well explained.
Wow amazing sister. Can you analyze river's gbb wildcard 2021?
Wow, why hasn't your channel popped up in my search before? LOL. I've been on the lookout for music review channels, and here you are! I'm really digging your content, big kudos to you. There's so much to explore here, I can't wait to dive in!
@@suvaissance Exactly what I was looking for! I love how the creator represents music metaphorically, and how they represent stories with the help of music.
@@sheikhafroj9415 sorry my comment disappeared. Welcome to the channel again! 🌸 You might like the Uttama Villain decodes…
Wow
Oh my God. Subscribed❤
I think you must decode the famous Kadhalikkum Pennin song from kadhalan 😊
Hey Krish, just watching your videos one by one... It would be great to have a detailing video of kandukonden kandukonden song, which has a small tick sound, and same kinda sound i found in edho edho ondru song from "enaku 20, unaku 18" movie..
Btw, your details are really interesting and awesome..❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for great explanation. I wish similar videos on how movie melody songs are created and would like to know is there any such common patterns or hidden techniques implemented hy musicians
Glad you enjoyed! There are psychological tricks everywhere… Composer Harris Jayaraj is a master of creating a certain set of sounds which we associate with “modern youth”… after his era, the use of “wohu wohu wo” increased… (La la la or roo roo roo would be older 80’s fashion compared to that). Little things, big things… so many techniques they use…
@@suvaissance thanks a lot for explanation
You are an audiophile, without any doubt. What IEMs and headphones do you use? Is there any DAC & AMP combo that you would recommend? I use RME ADI-2 DAC and Focal & Audeze headphones. I have a couple of IEMs Campfire Dorado, Io, Polaris and BGVP MD8,
Just my Beyerdynamic for now! 😊
Omg you're awesome mam 😅
Thanks for the video ❤
Thanks a lot 😊
Lower frequency has long travel and requires thicker material to absorb while high-frequency can be absorbed by curtain also. Therefore low frequencies are felt by neighbors.
When I go to toilet during song or movies I only feel low frequencies from my subwoofer.
If you heard about sathosa kannerey's song, it's the same as starting from the same bass beat 💓 💓
Awesome..... Subscribed....
Thanks and welcome to Suvaissance!
Most of the arr songs contains the ostinato that forms the base of the song for rhythm section that caters a grandeur in vocals and the song looks wholesome without the emptiness of sound or a pause anywhere in between the song.. this was told by a musician recently in some other platform. Now, you have brought that into layman understanding and also a practical method of how to identify that pattern. This is amazing.. great effort is seen here to make this episode. Outstanding.. if u can interpret the song periyone from adu jeevitham and vida karo from chamkila, pls make them.. eagerly waiting to see your brilliant interpretations Ma'am.. thank you for this infotainment🙂🙏
Thanks! Aadu Jeevitham is on my to do list!
@@suvaissance thank you Ma'am.. eagerly waiting 🙂
Thank u so much for this video!
pls breakdown the song "Marudhaani" from movie sakkarakkatti (tamil). nice job🥰
If you hear munbe vaa, first 1 :30 min the base will be different and unusual but after 1 :30 we can hear some unusual drum kick, that bass hits different, whenever I listen to this song I focus on it and whenever neighbours playing this song this unusual bass kick will be heard outside and not the vocals and can easily guess they’re playing munbe vaa
Nice, will try it
thank you.
Interesting. I like your discussion on the practical implication. However, I did not quite understand why you defined uyire's bass line as unrecognizable (even when compared to urvasi). Isn't this bass line one of the most iconic?
Yep! Sure… one can argue that it is iconic… there is some subjectivity in this… in fact one other person I spoke to while testing the episode for clarity asked the same question as you… But others didn’t. My guess is that if you line up a 100 people who lived in the 90s era and play the bass alone for Urvasi and Uyire, Urvasi would be more popularly guessed. More would be able to hum Urvasi bass from memory too.
Those who want to experience music in pristine quality , please get a IEM if not headphone. They cost cheaper than your TWS and sound as good or even better than high end TWS like Airpods.
I learnt it when I was a child. Basic physics.
Me too. 🙌
Hello madam. I have accidentally met with this video(Uyire)and it made me to watch all of your videos. Your observation, decoding and explanation are so thought provoking. And from this i got inspired and wanted to ask you something about my observation.
Colours seen in your videos.
1. Pink : A) Your channel name(Logo), B) Your background colour and
C) The colour of your Jacket(Coat).
2.White : A)Your channel name at the corner, B)White keys in the piano, and C) The text or boxed items displayed for our understanding.
3. Black: A)Black keys of the piano. B)Colour of the garment wore under the coat.
4.Reddish Pinkish tint: A) On the wall behind you, B) Colour of your lipstick (Could not see clearly because of the background color)
Is there anything that could be decoded from my observations. As the master of decoding most unobserved intricacies, i humbly want to know is there anything you colud tell us about keeping all the same colours constant in every video. Thank you madam.
Hahahaaa you are in my tribe. 🙌😂 Yes the choice is deliberate… Rather than typing answers here… I will let it happen as an episode, it will be more fun 😃. I will remember this comment… 👍
So kind of you amma. A small request from my side. I would like to know why these songs keep on going in my mind. Something like my all time favorites.
1.Newyork nagaram from Nuvvu nenu prema or tamil version.
2. I Giorni by Ludovico Einaudi.
3. Planet earth 2 suite by Hans Zimmer(4:30sec)
4. Arrival of birds theme of Crimson wing a Disney nature documentary.
5. That....ARR humming in the song Sankuratri kodi(Sandai Kozhi)
6.Title music of Paperman short documentary of Disney, to mention a few that have striked at this moment.
Fantastic list… thanks… will check them out… if I am able to crack and present in an interesting way will do… 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much amma.
You can easily compare Uyire from Bombay to Thoda Thoda from Indira.
As we go lower down the frequency range, the sound gets more omnidirectional, this is the simple science behind this phenomenon. That's why placement of sub-woofer in a home theatre can be tricky to get right otherwise the bass can get boomy due to the side wall reflections (for which we use bass traps).
Great example! 🙌
another lovely video.. for another great example you can take the song "Suttrum vizhi sudare" from Ghajini :) keep more videos coming krishhh :)
Wah..Awesome example with awesome bass… For me, Vadivelu version made it legendary (even though it’s the comedy troll version)… if it gets re-used in other creations, it gets its status a culturally iconic creation!
@@suvaissance very true! I used to hum these basslines a lot for no reason sometimes, like "Katre En Vasal & Thaniye Thananthaniye from Rhythm", and in Hindi "Dil se re & Satarangi re from Dil Se", "Dil Chahta Hai & Thanhayee from Dil Chahta Hai" are a few of them.. crazy unique basslines with the exact value you are talking about...
also, I just visited the Ghajini song after commenting, and believe me I too remembered the Vadivelu version so much... :D
"Ragasiya kanavugal " from bheema
What is the software? By the way phenomenal videos started with this one and almost watched some videos continuously
Thank u! I used Logic but you can get the equivalent filter function in any other music composing software: Protools, Cubase whatever…
Amazing video
I heard a lot of songs in my childhood at 55 years back the analog period not digital.try the song engirintho aasaigal from chandrodayam and find the base instrument definitely not electric base guitor or rytham generator.did you hear songs by valve radios from neigbours house?
