Time is flying. I'm not going to promise consistency over the summer - will be a huge distraction - but I will do my best to avoid big gaps in posting again. In any case it was not meant to be another month break. It's been a vicious couple of months, hasn't it? All my best wishes go out to anyone caught up in any of the chaos.

 

Anyways; This is one I've been meaning to post since the last spread. So finally now, I've compiled a list of tracks for anyone unfamiliar with what music can do to your soul. Good words and fine sentiments are not enough. The music must move us.

A good night's sleep really means feeling good at every step of the way. For example, one can pass out pretty happily after a big weekend evening of drinking, but I bet you he'll toss in the middle of the night and awake with a headache that really ruins it all.

Sometimes one may go to bed early and sleep really well through the night, but awake feeling grumpy and tired for no discernible reason. Both of these are problems and these songs will solve them both... and much more of course...

Malaragle -- Kanavaaaa

Yet another sweet melody by A R Rahman brought to life by Hariharan & Chitra. The songs traverses through the beautiful ragas Saraswati and Hameer Kalyani. This semi classical song starts off with a brilliant prelude with synth effects followed by shrill steel flute along with the bass, electronic piano and violin playing the prelude.

Chitra starts the song accompanied only by a very few soft instruments; violin and hit-hat in the backdrop. Then as you move on to the 1st interlude you realize the song is all about grandeur with exquisite pulsating beats, violins and upright/slap bass complementing each other. Al though the beats are ripped off from Paul Young's 'Love of common people', from the album 'No Parlez', released in 1983 which also happens to be commercial loops which anyone can use. A R Rahman's usage of the beats in this song is just magnificent! 

Hariharan starts only after the 1st prelude but adds much more beauty to the song by his Hindustani classical laced singing switching frequently from bass notes to higher crescendos. Brilliant display of his versatility when he sings:
"Vaazhvodu Valarthidai Thaane Vanna Nilave Nilave Vaanoda Neelam Pole Ilaindhu Kondadhu Intha Uravu... "

I wanted to share this video of a super singer contestant singing this amazing song with amazing perfection for her age: I hope you enjoy it as much as the original at least for her effort!




And this just for fun:



Malargale Malargale Ithu Enna Kannavaa Mallaigale Mallaigale Ithu Enna Ninaivaa Urugiyathe Ennathu Ullam, Perugiyathe Vizhi Vellam Vinnodum Neethan Mannodum Neethan Kannodum Neethan Vaa Vaaa....
