Over the last eleven year's TIFF has slowly become a major when it comes to Academy Award winners. Two of the last three Best Picture winners ( Slumdog Millionaire and The King's Speech ) were also winners of TIFF's prestigious People's Choice Award. 2009 Best Picture winner, The Hurt Locker , did not win the People's Choice Award, but it screened at the festival the same year as Slumdog Millionaire . If you look closely at the Best Picture nominees over an eleven year span you will noticed that eighteen of the sixty-five [...]
I don't do drugs, I am drugs. ~ Salvador Dali Miracle Worker - SuperHeavy - SuperHeavy is a super group comprised of Joss Stone, Damian Marley, Mick Jagger, A.R. Rahman (composer, Slumdog Millionaire) and Dave Stewart(Eurythmics). This track is dope. I will say however that I'm not crazy about Mick's vocals on this. Maybe it needs to grow on me or something, but it seems off to me. But overall jammerstiltskin… Drive it Like You Stole It (King Fantastic Remix) - The Glitch Mob [...]

Filed under: Around the World "Not like this before." That's A.R. Rahman 's answer when asked if he'd ever done anything comparable to the current tour of elaborate dance numbers staged to highlights from his vast catalog of music composed for Indian films. "It's a combination of Broadway and a rock concert and Bollywood," he says. "I've been wanting to do this for ages." Well, when you've become the first Bollywood composer to win an Academy Award (he actually won two: one for [...]
Oh how I would love to be the fattest man at a music festival, so fat that it's hard to tell whether I'm face up or face down when I recline in the grass. As you can tell, today's kind of a slow day so far (although we do have a brand new podcast thanks to our resident postaholic Nathaniel)... We haven't done one of these megaposts in a while, so I figured I'd give it a shot at upload a bunch of my favorite remixes. Plus, after the crap that DreamHost put us through [...]
check it - this song kills it! college a capella group stuck in the middle just put out their latest album "clap.stop." & it's pretty awesome stuff. below you can check out three of our favorite tunes from the album, including highlight jai ho, their take on a.r. rahman's academy award winning jam from '08's "slumdog millionaire" - the production on the track is mind-blowing, almost unbelievably a capella, & in addition check out their versions of wyclef's sweetest girl & timbaland + one republic's apologize.

Come on guys do you think were stupid? Slumdog Millionaire stars, Dev Patel and Freida Pinto were snapped leaving a New York restaurant together and decided to leg it for fear we would put two and two together... ...guess what guys, we already have! The young lovebirds seemed to find the sunny side of things though and playfully laughed and ran away from the persistant snappers. Rumours have been circulating for months that the pair were an item after their on-screen [...]

I'm a big fan of Bollywood (or "filmi") music, so I was intrigued (and admittedly a bit incredulous) when I heard that the Pussycat Dolls were recording a version of A.R. Rahman 's Oscar-winning " Jai Ho " (from the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack ). Now [...]

click here to watch anything with Michelle Rodriguez in it gets our support! The team from Addictive TV pitched this video to us...yeah...good stuff indeed... It is also interesting how the mash up remix culture is making its way into more mainstream areas..we think that's the way it should be! (As long as something cool comes out of it at the end.) Have a great weekend...more soon with news for Alec Empire's "Shivers". from the Addictive TV camp: "In the wake of Addictive TV's remix of Oscar winning [...]
Ouch this is hot. Snoop Dogg dubsteps it up and come up with a great new sound for himself as only he could. He ain't done this on his own props also go to the Hustle Boys and Tanvi Shah - vocalist from Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack. Download Link Below DOWNLOAD: 'Snoop Dogg Millionaire Feat. Tanvi Shah of Slum Dog Millionaire'
Snoop has released a new track entitled "Snoop Dogg Millionaire" guessing the name comes from "Slumdog Millionaire"... just a guess though. Snoop Dogg has went to the next level by taking an old dupstep tune, "Eastern Jam" by Chase and Status, and throwing a sick flow over it. i would never had guessed that he would have done something like this in 100 years. "Throw Your Money in the Air" [...]
ChordStrike appreciates good music writing as much as the next reader, which is why I recommend David Yearsley's "Sonic Fakery in Slumdog from the Mozart of Chennai." The Mozart in question is, of course, Slumdog Millionaire composer A.R. Rahman . Yearsley begins: "A. R. Rahman's two-fisted Oscar haul a couple of weeks ago was richly deserved. Without his soundtrack, Slumdog Millionaire would have been largely unwatchable. It was the palliative of Rahman's score that allowed the movie's grim images of poverty and violence to be served [...]
< > Più o meno questo devono aver pensato le Pussycat Dolls ascoltando "Jai Ho", uno dei brani più accattivanti della colonna sonora del film acchiappa-oscar "The Millionaire" . Le bamboline e il loro entourage non hanno perso tempo, capendo le potenzialità della hit; hanno chiesto ed ottenuto il diritto di adattare il pezzo con un testo in inglese (nella loro versione infatti c'è la coda al titolo "you are my destiny") e coinvolto nel progetto l'interprete originale A.R. Rahman. Il risultato della operazione riciclo lo trovate [...]
This is the cover of Khan's tres bad first single, "Daniel" from her second album "Two Suns." It's not as bad as the album cover for "Two Suns," but the song is.
