jagadhanandha kaaraka reminds me so heavily kunnathe.. the saarangi and the bass lines are so "Kunnaaththe"...

Nice recollection kiru.

I remember that kiru. Even my dad used to say that and even remember doing that. As Suresh ji said you, jai, every one please write about these songs in detail whenever you can. Will be glad to read it.

The unfortunate fact about 'thandavakone' is that it is still not available in stores in Chennai, forget Bangalore. I don't know why this is happening eventhough someone like Agilan is supposed to have the rights. You can buy it online but not yet in stores. I do hope someone who has been in touch with Agilan mails him and checks as to when it will be available in stores.

very unlucky. Then what is the purpose of 'Isai Veliyeedu'?

All in all, as V_S says, Raja wants to create a soundscape which put us in midst of the 'Thandavakon'. Very apt for this movie.

Thalaivar is probably the only composer who balances his composing techniques well with the film he is dealing with, yet comes up with techniques probably only he can decipher.
Is this the first time a magudi has had some sort of orchestration besides the usual sound they always show in films? Trust thalaivar to disguise the instrumentation in his own style so well that you can easily replace the magudi with a shenai and they still have the same effect.

சரியே. "மாறாச் சுடர்" என்றே ஒலிக்கிறது. பதிவை திருத்திவிட்டேன். நன்றி.

Hulk,

Well said. And in a completely tangential reference, I remember you having uploaded the two songs of the Velu Prabhakaran movie, 'Kadhal Kadha' (?). I don't have those songs. Can you give me the link if you still have them up.

Venki: Thanks once again for the lyrics. Very enjoyable.
