To be frank above REVIEW, is not at all, a good one! Very unprofessional.. Firstly, he never goes in the order of the Original tracklist.. Secondly, he wraps up the description of AROMALE, with a very vague description.
Also... I didnt find anything inspired from that ENYA track... The general GENRE is like this, and many songs use the same kinds of progression, and layered synthpads! And regarding the TITANIC signature coming in shades in MANNIPAAYA, I felt it right from the TIME I heard the AMAZON PROMO... But is that INTENTIONAL???? It is STILL a beautiful track, eventhough the melody loses connection somewhere in the middle. .the tune running slightly directionless.. Kannukkul Kannai, reminds you of the RACY ARR tracks of the 90's and early 2000's. The composition is on the lines of Shakalaka Baby and Yakai Thiri / Fanaa (aayutha Ezhuthu/Yuva). Anbil avan too being of similar kind, but with surprising gospel interludes, making a swift cameo. ARR decides to keep Omana Penne, simple and predictable, while he drives our emotions through those scintillating violin accompaniments and Nadaswaram interludes. I initially suspected whether ARR used the continuum for the Nadaswaram bit, but the tracklist revealed that it had been recorded LIVE. Hossaana certainly is a NEW BREED for lovestories and the concept would certainly be adopted by other Kollywood composers, in their upcoming soundtracks! I would say, ARR worked less while creating the scratch of the song. But the mesmerising vocals, heavenly flow of synthpads and lavishly arranged chord progressions amplify the impact of the song! And ofcourse, those fantastic flue interludes add to the allure. Overall, this is a clever, yet classy work from ARR. The title song, Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya, is soft, subtle, yet, a melodious treat, which would take its time to hold your nerves. Aromalae, is probably the most experimental track, that a Gautham Menon film ever had. The innovative guitar design reminds you, of the Golden Era of bands like 'The Doors' and 'Pink Floyd'. Again, the brilliance of ARR here, there are not more than 4 chords in this song!!! The tune is a brilliantly reworked piece, of 'Ottam Thullal' Chants of Kerala. Overall, Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya, is a completely different experience, as ARR delivers the unexpected. Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya, has the most innovative music design amongst all Gautham menon films!
