Its time to remember another gem of a composition. Kannai Katti track from Iruvar has great lyrics and an amazingly simple arrangement. This song has the lyrics to power it and ofcouse the music to maintain the momentum. I think over years, some of the great tracks get buried in the noise that comes out often through the tamil and bollywood factory. My attempts in recent times has been to sort of remind the visitors to my blog on those tracks that do not deserve a reminder. One such track is this one – An ever green upbeat song with equally superb lyrics.It is all about being sensible!
As a norm, i tried a version of my own here which i present.The thing about Rahman’s tracks is that there is usually a subtle increase in energy levels towards the end of the track. Perhaps because of the awesome layers he incorporates or the catchy hook that is looped many times using instruments and vocals. I tried a similar technique here with layers. I am sure you will find an increase in the energy levels of this mix as you listen to the end.
Hope you like it! and if you do. Check this super interesting Malayalam version mix! after you are done with this.
