Maestro Ilaiyaraja New Albums 2011 - Hello Jaihind / Sri Rama Rajyam

"Gonjasufi" samples IR's SADMA (yeh hawa yeh fiza) track for his "A Sufi and a Killer" (year:2010) album. Song is titled "Sheep". Never heard of this GonjaSufi!

I was searching for a better quality "yeh hawa" song (just for the mind boggling base guitar). I found the below link, which again talks about the sampling, but the audio quality is very good.

The base guitar is much much more enhanced in the sampled track "sheep". I am listening on a bose headphone and its is very very addictive!

thanks,

Krishnan

P.S.: Wondering if the base is enhanced (if it is enhanced) a tad bit more!

Regarding Vizhiyile, the 1st time I heard when it was released. At that time I would have a feeling that I was being taken on a space trip at dawn. The "dawn effect" may be due to Radio Ceylon broadcasting it everyday early in the morning. Interestingly till now I get the same feeling as like taking off into space during the start of the song and landing on earth at the end of it.

IR's first movie in Marathi language. Uttam Singh is arranger.

http://www.dnaindia.com/mumbai/repor...arathi_1559187

Movie name is "Hello Jaihind". Curious to know how the theme is handled in the movie and how IR has approached for the music/BGM.

Recently read in an article that Kailash Kher has also sung for IR. Was wondering when did he sing for IR. Looks like it is this movie.

The movie is slated to release on November 25th. The year is not mentioned though

.

From the article, it is seen the crew has great respect for IR.

thanks,

Krishnan

Superb News krish! Thanks. BTW how did you find out this news, amazing search!

**Sureshs65** · 26th June 2011, 10:59 AM

V_S,

krish is master of the search. I don't know how he does it but he is generally the first with all new news about Raja. He is one reason why I stopped searching

Watched 'Azhagarsamiyin Kudhirai' yesterday on DVD. A very simple tale and told well, though I feel he could have told it better by avoiding the mandatory villain in the second half. Lot of colorful village characters, without any depth though. Raja's music is superb. Very jazzy and fits the mood. As writer Pa.Raghavan said, Raja in this movie has scored for the mood and emotions of the movies, not for the authenticity. Certain pieces show how well Raja is clued in into all forms of music and how well he can integrate them into his own genre.

V_S, Sureshs65,

Thanks for the compliment, but the real master is the net and Google! I was and am always curious to know what's latest about IR's music, so I started (about 4-5 years back I guess) to search once or twice in a day using google with IR's name. Even today, I kinda religiously run the search at least once or twice in a day

.

thanks,

Krishnan
