Music Review (Tamil): Imaikka Nodigal

Music Review (Tamil): Imaikka Nodigal
Music Composer: HiphopTamizha

Kadhalikathey is the hackneyed hiphop  Tamizha's tune with the dose of his usual Nadhaswaram solos peppered on the mass-friendly lyrics. HipHop Tamizha's vocals are strictly functional supported by Kaushik Krish. One wishes that the song could have used much better rhythm structure rather than this generic arrangement.In Vilambara Idaivelai, Hiphop Tamizha sticks to an easily accessible ear-friendly tune and Nadhaswaram solo by D Balasubramani works like a charm. Christopher Stanley and Sudharshan Ashok ace the rendition while Srinisha Jayaseelan's fangled rendition works to the song's favour.

Neeyum Naanum Anbae is another ear-pleasing tune but the track has nothing outstanding to offer and composer strictly confines to his territory without much experimenting. The only highlights being the violin solos and Raghu Dixit's singing is ably supported by Sathyaprakash. HiphopTamizha's neatly done arrangements make this an engaging song despite the passable tune. Kadha Oru Aagayam is an another Hiphop Tamizha's melancholy sung effectually by Teejay and Al Rufian. Once again the track has strictly pedestrian tune and slightly better arrangements from the composer, Thanks to the affecting violin solos in the interludes and relatively better Charanam portions. Lion Vs Hyenas works beautifully for Magizh Thirumeni's exciting story telling which is bound to raise the expectations for the psychotic villain. Though the initial two minutes mainly focuses on the vocals with minimal background, the instrumental reaches crescendo towards the end with ample support from Joseph Vijay's screeching guitar riffs.The underplayed background score in Lion Vs Hyena's comes to the front in Rudra's Symphony and Hip Hop Tamizha ensures that the instrumental is top notch which fits the racy thriller genre perfectly. The highlight of the instrumental is undeniably stupendous strings by Czech Orchestra Rec team.

Verdict: Hiphop Tamizha confines to his tried and tested soundscape and the composer's instrumental tracks work better than the easily accessible vocal tracks.

My Rating:7/10

Pick of the Album: Rudra's Symphony, Neeyum Naanum Anbae, Vilambara Idaiveli
