Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na: Audio Review

this movie seems to be a promising love flick with Genelia D'Souza oppositte Imraan Khan who is the nephew of Aamir Khan. the movie is produced by none other than our Aamir Khan. the movie promises more with debutant director Abbas Tyrewala penning down his exquisite lyrics joining hands with our musical wizard A.R.Rahman. the audio seems to be the best of this year with Rahman bringing some scintillating youthful tunes giving a break to his epic and historic genres. the album is a melange of jazz, pop and symphony.

the movie has six tracks, the album's first track is

1.Kabhi Kabhi Adithi Zindhagi -- Rashid Ali which has already captured so many hearts and seems to be the current buzz of the bollywood industry. the first thing that strikes on your mind listening to the song seems to be the pleasing voice of Rashid Ali. there has been phew critcs on this song for its similarity with "Adada Adada" from Bommarillu but few resources confirm that this song has been completed by Rahman two years back and when it comes to the feel of the song it seems to be far ahead and it could noway be compared. The guitar strums and flute interludes embellishes the song more. The song has all ingredients of making it a super hit. The scale transition in the middle paragraph seems to be very unpredictable having very good phrasing and tune flow. The song is right away the pick of the album. Its Rahman at his best.

My Rating (9.8/10.0)

2. Pappu C'ant Dance Salla -- Anupama, Benny Dayal, Blaazee, Tanvi, Darshana, Satish Subramanium, Aslam.

this song is straight away dedicated to the dance floors. the song seems to have humms like "kiti kiti na na" with a classical touch in it. Nothing special musically speaking, a lotta sound and audio engineering involved in it , probably an experimentation by Rahman. Blaaze gives his best with his rap & lyrics. the song is a pure classical fusion. the song's lyric plays an important part depicting a character called "Pappu" who has got everything but can't dance. the song is fast paced and soon would be heard everywhere. Ultimately a commercial song.
My Rating (9.3/10.0)

3.Jaane tu Meri Kya hai -- Runa

this is a unique composition with percussions at its best. the piano pieces seem to have traces of "Yanni' overlooked by Rahman's style.. the song is a pure melancholy with explicit singing. Runa does a great job showing her excellence bringing the exact feel. the scale transition in the middle parah seems to be odd first but then grows on u slowly and captures u. the scale transition shows Rahman's high standards and brings the reason why he is different& unique from other composers.. Altogether a superb compostion..
My Rating (9.7/10.0)

4. Nazrein Milaana -- Benny Dayal, Satish Chakravarthy, Naresh Iyer, Darshana, Shwetha, Tanvi, Bhargavi, Anupama

the song is sung by a bunch of singers. the song is energetic which has the trademark Rahman stamp in it. the song has traces of his previous track "Yuhi Chala" from Swades. the song starts with an acoustic guitar wit a country feel. the pretty orchestration of the song would capture anybody in the very first listen to carry the song along. A good song..
My Rating (9.5/10.0)

5. Tu Bolo -- A.R.Rahman

the song is one of Rahman's best compositions of his last few years.. the best ever jazz number done by an Indian composer.. the song purely has an International feel. the song is probably the theme song of the movie. the song seems to have a feel of 60's jazz. themes with same sorta feel where given by Miles Davis, Buddy Bolden, Louis Armstrong during the 60's. the songs speciality is its usage of trumpets and soft drums.. the arrangements of the song at its best adds an International flavour to it. the song has too much of knowledge & experimentation behind it and I guez the track can noway be reproduced because of its complication. Rahman has done a great job singing it elegantly. In terms of knowledge and musical appreciation I feel this is the song of the album.
My Rating (9.9/10.0)

6. Kahin to Hogi Ho -- Rashid Ali ,Vasundra Das

this song is a beautiful song made for Rashid Ali, none other than him could have rendered it better. the feel of the song is quite amazing which causes addiction. the song is soft, romantic and soothing which would make the listener to float. this would surely make Rashid Ali reach places and wud be remembered for several years to come..

Review Incomplete -- to be Continued..

Nature An Introduction

the word "nature" has infinite faces and meanings so that it cannot be depicted that easily. So many topics involved in nature seems to be a mystery, thats one of the reasons for one cannot depict the whole significance of nature . here I give u a small portray or depiction of nature. the term "nature" means essential qualities or characteristics by which something can be recognized, or it could be a causal agent creating and controlling things in the universe. A nature of a person is the complex of emotional and intellectual attributes that determine a person's characteristic actions and reactions. stating the word nature rite away takes any mind to its beauty thats because of its admiration. Nature is one of God's gift, so learn to enjoy god's creation. Nature is differentiated by its various forms. Oceans, mountains, the muddy shores, deap sea vents, animal species, worms, reptiles, micro organisms , plants, human and many more all these come under nature.

AUDIO Review SAKKARAKATTI-::

People the audio review of Sakkarakatti seems to be a kinda late from my side as the songs are already familiar and topping the charts. But before that I would like to mention the reason for publishing it late, its simply because Rahman's compositions have a lot of knowledge behind it and it takes a bit of time to grow on the listener. Another important reason behind this, is that his music contains too many background layers, new scale transitions and new experimentations that aren't familiar. So, it takes time for us to understand. Thats the reason why people call his compositions "A Slow poison" (i.e)

( it starts of worse and when days go by, it grows on u, creeps and stays forever)..

Here I start.. This album is gonna create history no doubts.. Each track is good in its own way and the tracks in the album contains variety of genres..

1. Eley (Singers Krish, Naresh Iyer)--

This composition is very new to Indian music. Here Rahman introduces the genres Irish jazz and the blues.. The most intelligent aspect of this track is its orchestration, it seems to be accompanied with acoustic guitar that brings a country feel so that it could be listened even by a lay man. This is basically for commercial aspects, as pure Jazz & blues requires a different taste and could be listened only by purists. The usages of "Brass", Violin & Organs brings the Irish-jazz feel and the scale transition gives u the blues feel.. The genre "Blues" is identified by its different method of strumming and scale transitions. This so called blue transition can be found in the second stanza when the "Eley" part seems to be repeated. The lyrics seems to be very suitable for the tune, it purely shows the writer's imagination. This song is one among the youth anthems.
My Rating (9.7/10.0)

2. Taxi Taxi (Benny, Blaze and Vion)--

The song is a pure youth anthem on cards.. The song is already a chartbuster. It is said to be the song of the season and according to sources the video of the song has recently been changed. The track has an International feel. The song seems to be of the Hip Hop genre. They also call it "Rompe". The background pads and bass seems to be the best part of the song..

The song has French lyrics..

"il faut que je me depeche parce qu'on m'attend au chennai il faut que j'aille prendre le taxi à Paris" which means that "it is necessary that I myself depeche because one awaits me to the chennai, I must, will take the taxi to Paris"

Another attractive part of the song is its lyrics on friendship..
My Rating (9.7/10.0)

3. Marudhaani (Madhushree and Rahman)--

This song is gonna be the song of the year. The melody ,the tune and freshness in it can beat any track. Nothing special about the loop as it is a very simple trance loop but the tracks tune obliterates its orchestration. "Oh My God" the stupendous feel seems to be straight away from Rahman's corridor. The first piano interlude starting of with a minor transition just flows in your mind straight away and the middle paragraph's highlight seems to be our Rahman's humming, it comes in and fades away within a phew secs. The song's lyrics seems to be very colorful which portrays the tradition of a gurl and her love.
My Rating (9.8/10.0)

4. Naan Eppodhu (Reena Bharadhwaj)--

This song would capture anybody in the very first listen. The tune floats anybody with its feel. This song is a remake of a super hit song "Yeh Ristha" from the hindi movie "Meenakshi". The best part is that the remade lyrics suits well in tamil. The gorgeous voice of Reena Bharadhwaj seems to be a plus. I feel this song seems to be different in tamil. The orchestration has different sounds and mandolin is the instrument used in the first interlude.

My Rating (9.7/10.0)

5. Chinnamma (Benny Dayal, Chinmayi)--

This song seems to be a pure south Indian composition. It makes anybody to dance. Probably a next "Chayya Chayya" on the making.The voice of Benny seems to be better than that of Sukhwinder's and Chinmayi, I doubt whether it was her voice because it was totally different from "I miss you da" (another track from this album) this shows her versatility. This song would be a mass hit. The lyrics, tune and change in the rhythm pattern seems to be even more better in tamil.
My Rating (9.6/10.0)

6. I Miss You Da (Chinmayi)--

This song tune is of 50's type but the song's beat and orchestration seems to be a trance and a mixture of the genre arabic in the interludes. This song brings an erotic feel. This song is like a dream and nobody could imagine an orchestration this way. Tamil ppl would know more regarding these sorta compositions because these kinda songs where given by MS.Viswanathan in the past 1950's. Tracks like "Maalai Pozhundhin Mayakam" is considered to be a super hit in the 50's which is too of the same kinda genre. I feel he is trying out a new style, bringing out old 50's music touch using today's technology. His recent tracks like"Mayail Iragae","thigu thigu", "Munbae Va", "Inisaai", "Thazhuvadhu","Maja Maja" will all come under this category. The track "thottal poo malarum" new was too a track of M.S.Viswanathan re-tuned version of Rahman..

I feel these tracks are for late generation who would generally prefer these kinda songs because the old type music feel is still considered to be evergreen. And since it has been softwares dominating the period of time, there's nothing wrong in Rahman trying out something new to look back.

I feel this could be a trend change. Soon there would be a demand for these kinda songs. Whenever I listen to this I find something new. It grows on one slowly.

My Rating (9.5/10.0)

Normally I would not get completely satisfied with an Arr album but this album seems to be something above expectations.

So, lets hope the best & pray for the Director to equalize the expectations & standards being creative in his videos because videos generally play an important role to make the songs familiar among ppl.

MY IDEAL & MY LIFE

this is not a blog but my life.. this blog is to just make u understand how an ideal person can bring a drastic effect or change in a person's life.. the special person has not only transformed me but has made me into a distinct individual with ambitious goals & has totally changed my attitude and way towards life.. this person is my life time ideal and I wud like to follow him in all aspects of my life.. his qualities has made me learn so many, starting from interests to attitude. So many concepts like relating ur eternal life with real world, balancing ur routine life with work, handling politics with simple concepts called Love, Affection and Services to ur society. Concepts like visualization towards ur dream, laws of attraction, concepts on increasing ur creativity, removing expectations and to bring acceptance.. the service he does for our country is something outrageous & extravagant.. that could be the reason for his popularity.. You can take all experts who have achieved big in their life, they all follow the same principle called "the secret". they do it in a different path but they end upp at the most expected destination which is the one & only "Success" or a concept called "Searching is as important as reaching the destination". Well!! why to get this complicated but just to learn to continue & concentrate on your work ignoring feelings and emotions..

Well!! I could never imagine how spiritual I would have transformed, by reading this paragraph u could well find that lol!! Guess I've deviated from the topic.. Here I get back with a surprise disclosing my ideal person.. who is none other than "Our Music God" A.R.RAHMAN..

Well!! I dedicate this Blog for all Rahmaniacs..
