Well here is my first song review...
I have gone absolutely crazy with this tamil soundtrack vinnaithandi vaaruvaya.
One of the songs which really impressed me is this mad track called 'Aaromale'.Ufff
The song begins with a beautiful guitar/string riff.Wow that riff has some kind of an attitude.The singer Alphons Joseph sings with a bizarre voice signifying nothing but madness.
When the song began I thought this must be a complete out and out western kinda number.Well I was wrong!!!
Btw i never got bored of that riff...It was improvised everytime :)
Well I was wrong!!!A faint instrument in the background sounded very carnatic!!!Ya I was rite(A synthesiser kinda sound).Wow a bizarre voice,western guitar riff,carnatic background....adding to this a sankrit chant in between....
Wow what a track!!!
I always have observd that fusion tracks have this model
An indian basic tune,with some beautiful chords in the background,with multiple instruments.
This fusion song is different...exact opposite !!!
There are some beautiful improvisations(listening to the vibrating string at the end of the sanskrit chant) .
This definitely is one of the most beautifully crafted fusion tracks I have heard in recent times.
People rarely observe the subtle sounds Rahman includes in his songs....
hats off to you rahman!!!
