Endhiran Music review

The combination of AR Rah man and Director Shankar has brought us some unforgettable music over the years…Jeans still continues to be Sangria of them.

So the Magnanimous production house has it here ENDIRAN. Well! The album fits us with all the expectation we could possibly have. Has all the elements of a big budgeted, Sci –fi and solicitation of Super Star. The album that comes from the fabrication unit of AR and his team composes mainly of modern day revitalized music tracks with ethnic touch, grandeur and the magic of the Mozart as well.

  Arima Arima by msb.bhuvanesh

 
Pudhiya Manidha :A Peak introduction about Endiran by the maestro& Khatija Rahman. The Guinness holder’s vocals come late and preempt to create something that is path breaking in welcoming a new avatar.


Arima (def-male lion) a powerful intro/ mass solicitation, with instruments playing thunderous sounds in the background. AR Rah man has opted for Sadhana Sargam to give the feel through seemingly. Hariharan on vocals is exhilarating. A cornucopia of fascinating sounds… all working in brilliant sync. Chorus singers, Bass guitar progressions& Band players add to the grandeur.


Kadal Anukkal is nothing short of a pulsating celebration of sorts – that punchy science words adds cryptic. Vijay Prakash, Shreya Ghoshal’s superb vocals add to the delight, along with pulsating guitar phrases all alluring the listeners with foot tapping tune. (Note the Spanish style interlude, string progressions that blends well within,)


Irumbile Oru Idhaiyam: This musical piece is simply divine .A sweet whopper! Simple and poignant tune from AR Rah man that is surprising. Lovely melody with marvelous arrangements, unfortunately the track is short lived A breezy one.


Boom Boom Robo Da :YoGi B, the name I believe will soon be associated with ARR’s composition. The rapper is the real highlight. Techno style track .Music is a bit frivolous, but has enough of Rahman’s touches stand apart and enthrall.Tanglish lyrics by Kaarki add to the funky , vibrant, stylish and youthful no.



Chitti Dance Showcase: More: A New-age fusion A mere musical piece that blends classic instruments and vocals fused in proportions with heavy strings, too dense in the backgrounds as it progresses. with symphony orchestration in between. A zingy package.

Kilimanjaro :Starts of with African ,( Tanzania ) vocals . Instantly brought to life by some beautiful vocals by Javed Ali . Musically, the arrangements rest on a semi-classical /folkish platform with a range of classical instruments & hard drums, all meticulously crafted for a soothing and pepped up experience.

A fascinating and diverse soundtrack that deserves applaud and appreciation. Has most varied folksy and interesting soundtrack and most importantly lives up to our anticipation. Thematic music that will be best seen not heard. A musical marvel
