I like to hear in the line of Mudhal Mariyathai type of songs from Paruththiveeran, not some synth-based songs came out in BR movies later that killed the nativity. Am I asking too much? :roll:

Hi all,

Ilayaraja's New album Madhu going to release by 02-03-2006 (Thursday).

That is great !
So we can expect this thread to become active again after a looooooooong slumber :)

I hope it turns out to be a better album like ONOK.

Madhu audio released. IR vows to work with new directors. He also claims all the top notch directors worked with him before they became famous.

Its time for celebration :D As 'Madhu' is released. I've listened to it around ten times and Raja has delivered his best for this stereotyped 5 songs movie. Three melodies one kuthu song and one western dance no.

1.Dum iruntha Munnaley Vaa.. Is a surprising Dance no. From Raja. Its been along time since we listened to dance compostions with guitar, trumpets, and nice percussion from Raja. Reminds his 80's compostions like Yaee unnaithane...and Ilamai itho itho though its lacking those kind of Heavy orchestration.
2.Intha ulagil... is a soft melody with heavy synth induced music. Preferably Iam getting bored with Raja using synths in all his recent movies. Though the tune and the whole song is pleasent after repeated litenings.
3.Nilavai Sutri... The tune and orchestration again lacks his vintage style. Though the interludes and the rendering by tippu is good.
4.Ketkavillaya... Is a haunting melody again spoilt by synths. Though Raja is coming up with good tunes this is the area where he has to go back to his roots.
5.Immathundu manasu...Is again a surprise from Raja. Better he does more kuthu nos. where he cant use Synths :) The song has some beautiful fusion of WCM and Folk. The interludes are awesome reminding songs like 'Singari sarakku'
My pick of the album is Dum iruntha munnaley vaa and Immathundu manasu for not using synths. :thumbsup:

isai mazhai has become isai bOdhai...(according to the cover.jpg that rs posted)...
