SOK Review...

My SOK Review...

Now, the latest album frm rahman ji is Jillunu Oru Kadhal.

The teasers were released some 4-5 days b4 the actual release of the album. this increased my curiosity further and cudn't wait for it.

Finally i grabbed the songs and as usual cudn't stop the looping.

The songs which are class are:

New York - sung by Rahman himself
Munbe Vaa - Gr8 orchestration and voice
Machakari - My favorite Shankar Mahadevan and Vasundara Das.

The songs that are gr8.

Kummi Adi - By a whole bunch of people
title Track - Jazz Feel

Average

Mazza - Similar feel to Ah Aah..
Maricham - Experimentation number but falter's.

In New York - the start hum by our boss is gr8, then the guitar which is vey evident. excellent. This sets the tempo.. Listen to the song from 0:40 - 0:50 gr8 work. The notes are excellent and will linger for a very long time.

In Munbe Vaa - The place where shreya starts with 'charam' or first stanza. is outstanding. Also, when naresh is introduced it gives a gr8 feel.

Machakari - WoW !!! shankar Mahadevan his rendition is flawless... foot tapping.

As my favorite director said Rahman songs are layers and each layer is noticable after repeated hearings.

I will post one, comparing his song with the OSI model in networking. (Network geek).

On the whole, gr8 quality, composition, experimentation and finally wud give it a
4.5/7.

Enjoy the album and hope it makes big like RDB.
