Mickey J Meyer, the music director of Mahesh Babu’s ‘Brahmotsavam’, has dismissed the allegations that the background score of the first Teaser of Brahmotsavam that was released on New Year’s Day was copied.
After the teaser was released, many alleged that Meyer copied background score from a pop Song. Meyer broke his silence to make a lengthy post of denial.
“To my well wishers and music lovers – the teaser of my upcoming Movie released today., and I was pleasantly surprised to find a song with a similar guitar riff – (a guitar chord progression that goes with the same chords that I used in my song) and some people started writing that the song is copied, well., it obviously isn’t and it is a original composition.
( the tune/melody/ orchestration ) a guitar chord can be same for many Songs.,, no one has a copyright on a chord structure., I have over the years been non – vocal about my music and creative works in the social media., but with this incident I had to step out and write this post. It makes no sense to not voice the truth.. Atleast for the fans and friends who know me as a person.
I don’t have to steal., I have my skills with me., I am not in a rat race., and no, am not pressured by any directors to steal.. ( not Srikanth Addala for heavens sake !!!!! To say the least) Having written this my heart is a little lighter now., as I pray to my lord Jesus Christ to take me further into my musical journey and create music that will be appreciated by everyone. God bless everyone., and have a great New Years ahead,” said the talented music director.
