SV06. Theme Of Love...



Thamn’s humming is rooted in THIKI THIKI .The composer vivifies yuvan’s THULI THULI(Paiyaa).  Impeccably arranged, functional music… 

‘Yen peru krishnaveni..’ looks similar to ‘En Peru Meenakumar’i from Kandasamy lyrically  . Tune wise it lacks that punchy hook, instead Thaman offers gorgeous semi Hindustani platform and adds charming layers that builds up gradually on and off..

Thaman beefs up with his arsenal in KUTHUDU. Naveen(vocalist) expands all through while Thaman gradually picks up the orchestration, holding back the tune.

Orchestration& tune wise Puducha looks similar to ‘Oh Baby nee devamirdam’ from MALAIKOTTAI by Manisharma. The most striking aspect of the soundtrack is the lack of conventional tune structures- unconventional bits hitting off & on immediately!

An agitated, charged up tune fills up ERAIVAA…a pulsating, non-stop beat; that traverses in many interesting ways, supported ably by the 3 singers.

Theme of love…  a lovely  melody with marvelous arrangements. Vocalist evoke that oomph..

Thaman undeniably has that potential. Yet vivifies others at many places…
