I liked the prelude of both the songs. First song with the guitar + drums + synth sound. For once the synth effect was not too much. Liked the prelude guitar in the second song.

thanks,

anyway The movie if when dubbed in english should have some good singers with well accented pronunciation this will make classic english song

shankar,
Donot compare MDK and IN and pass this off. you should know that he is well mainitaining his quality.
its us whose taste and listening style which has changed not that his music has gone down qualitatively
if then his BGM's too would've gone down. he is showing brilliance and unparalleled in that dept. being agreed unanimously shows that its us whose taste have changed regarding the listening of songs. Better we riverrt back to his style of presentation and enjoy the songs as always :wink:

Well, we can talk about certain things in non-subjective terms. My Dear Kuttichathan was totally innovative. It was almost symphonic in texture. I was impressed that it was appropriately included in the CD along with Guru (malayalam). That is not the case with this movie. Ofcourse, he gives a melodic number with synth/muted rock guitar.
I do like the songs, but I am not bowled over by them.

Hariharan would have suited well for the second song. It is a soft introspective song similar to "Thamizha Thamizha" in Roja.

IR has some unnecessary quality to grab himself some songs :(

why were we not comparing MDK with Anjali then and said Anjali is not symphonic in texture and full of electronic sounds so it pales in comparison with MDK ????
This is case with both IR and non-IR fans they always try to compare the albums of his to some of his 80's album and denounce the current offerings.
My logical deduction over this is that in the 80's we had the radios and taperecorders playing the songs over and over again making them etched in our memories while the 90's and 2000's are the satellite age where the music/movie or watever crap is to be enjoyed for few moments and we should keep moving on.
Its a fast food world where in atleast Raaja is trying to provide a mini meals.
We got the option of enjoying this or keep bragging about the full meals he was providing in the 80's. while he can always reason out that "naan 80's la full meals kuduthen athaye ippa vera mathiri prepare panni mini meals'ndra perla kudukiren itha sapidu illa poi junk food sapidu! ethu vasathi?" :wink:
You wont be bowled over by them now! I was not bowled over by MDK the first time i heard it. It was over the years that i found the glory of those songs. I can already hear some fans raving about sethu azhagi bharathi ramana MX manasinakkare pithamagan virumaandi and many more of his post 2000 albums who vehemently renounced them on the first hearing. hope after 2 or 3 years same people who renounce IN will have something good to tell about it :)

Ajanta audio release is when...IR paathu keithu rombo naala aachi :cry2:

Digression :)

IR was everywhere in Manoj Bharathi's wedding and he was nowhere in Selvaraghavan's wedding, even though, YSR was the cynosure this time :)

This observation is not to stir up a hornet's nest - albeit, considering the fact that IR was/is a close friend of Kasthuri Raja, I expected him to be atleast there in the wedding......

Ajantha is all set to be released in 2007 in prep for 2008 Oscars contention.

IR is NOT a close friend of Kasthuri Raja. He scored for few of his production house movies and nothing else.

Thanks for clarification. During IR's TV programme last year, Kasthuriraja was heaping praise on him so much as if he was very attached to him :)

I dont know when they reached a parting of the ways - may be when Kathal jaathi was the reason. Was that movie ever released ? It had some good songs though.
