1. Sattendru Marudhu Vaanilai
Music composed, arranged, and produced by Girishh Gopalakrishnan.
Lyrics by Snehan
Vocals by Shreya Ghoshal and MS Krsna
Language: Tamil
Genre: Light Music/Pop
Mood: Romantic
I loved this album, “Sattendru Maarudhu Vaanilai,” and gave it a good rating of 3.5/5, with two outstanding songs. This title song was one of those favourites as Girishh shows his capabilities as always. The lead vocalist is Shreya Ghoshal, and it is, in my opinion, one of the best by Shreya in recent years, demanding her to sound beautiful without gimmicks. It is a deeply engaging romantic song , with Shreya expressing some vulnerability as well. The rousing nadaswaram solo by D Balasubramani in the intro is outstanding, especially to hear the shift in Octaves. The moment the last melodic phrase on the Nadaswaram comes, it reminds me of something similar , the violin interlude in “Aagaya Vennilaave”, by Maestro Ilaiyaraja. This is why I was certain that the song’s melody has influences of Raag Darbari.
Medha Ramaswamy accompanies on backing vocals, singing the same melody, and after that, the pallavi is mesmerising with the song's rhythm guitar, by MS Krsna, Shreya’s sultry singing as well. The anupallavi with “Seendal Ilai, Theendal Illai” with MS Krsna’s additional vocal layers and the stylish rhythms take the cake. Shreya and M Krsna singing in harmony works like magic, especially since this is a romantic single. Snehan is the lyricist, and he does quite an impressive job throughout. Sayee Rakshith makes you want to weep with that seductive and melancholic violin solo in the interlude. Kudos to Girishh for writing this interlude so beautifully. Shreya is killing it with the line” Nee illamale ennul unai parkirene” in that contralto register. The subtle but succulent vibrato on “ bodhai kolven” and “enna velven” are examples of how brilliant Shreya has been in this song.
Another stunning piece of magic is the landing phrase that leads up to the pallavi, “ nee illai endraale naan enge povathu,” with faster guitar strumming. The Nadaswaram can be heard in the background playing some fine counterpoints in the outro. The recording engineers are Amey Londhe and AR Subbaiah, with the amazing Sai Shravanam on mixing and mastering.

2. O Meri Jaan
Composed and Produced by Sanyanth Naroth
Lyrics and Vocals Anurag Mishra
Language: Hindi
Mood: Romantic
Genre: Pop
The sound of the Guitarlele, by Rohit Lalwani, feels like the sound of water flowing in a stream amidst all the silence of a thick forest. The lead guitar starts to take control with Sharad Rao in charge, and the catchy rhythms slowly ramp up the ante and tempo. The sound design feels like I am about to listen to “Chura Liya Hai Tumne Jo Dilko”, and the humming by Sanyanth only does things to mesmerise our senses. The song is composed and produced by Sanyanth Naroth, with lyrics by Anurag Mishra. Who better to deliver the vocals than Anurag Mishra, who possesses a certain magnetism in his voice?
Sanyanth plays the rhythm guitar, and Sharad is the bassist. The song is reflective of a simpler time that had some great music, as it feels like something from the 70s. “Na Parwah Koi Bhi…….Ude Dil, Kahin Bhi” is my favourite line, and the intermittent guitars and rhythms keep us engaged and moving our heads in utter delight. The core beauty of any song lies in its melody, and Sanyanth proves that with the subsequent line, which throws a few surprises in terms of the notes and chord progression in “Woh yaadon mein hum , hamare siva na koi”. The lead guitars are a terrific component of this song, and they spark up such electrifying beauty in just 6 notes, filling in the pauses between “woh karwaan” and “ab hain kahan”.
Ashish Kujur is on keyboard programming, and the song’s one more unstoppable force is the continuous backing vocal layer that comes and stays in the verse, chorus, and bridge. “Par har jagah lage pehchani mujhe, yaad teri jahan bhi keeche mujhe, tujo mila laga woh” is probably the song’s bridge, but instead of being placed just before the outro, it comes ahead of the second verse, and I love the melodic phrases written here by Sanyanth. “Hamari Kahani , kisi Ko na sunaani” is so enchanting to hear, as Anurag sings it with such dreamy exuberance, and he uses such gentle falsettos to impress as well. Sharad Rao is determined to pulverise your heart and kidnap your senses to a faraway place with his lead guitar solo in the outro. The recording engineer is Tejas Ratnaparkhi, mixing is by Nitin Muralikrishna, and mastering is by Ronak Runwal.
3. Subah
Music Composer: Ana Rehman
Lyrics and Vocals: Shubham Shirule
Music arranged and produced by Shubham Shirule.
Language: Hindi
Genre: Tumri-fusion
Mood: Mild Pathos
These two are extremely talented, and their strike rate for creating beautiful songs is pretty high, so when I saw the names Ana Rehman and Shubham Shirule, it looked mouthwatering. The satisfaction is immense when we take bets on certain talents, and they live up to it, too. This song from the new Amazon Prime movie “System” is composed by Ana, and the lyrics are penned by Shubham. The song placement tells you that the situation demands a bit of pathos, and it is delivered thanks to the tempo, the vocals, and the sound design. We have the strumming of the rhythm guitar and harmonies by Pooja Tiwari, Ana, and Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari. Shubham captivates you with the vocal tone as soon as he starts to sing “ Subah Hone Tak”, but I cannot wait for the morning, because the melody and his soothing voice are captivating.
I do sense some Raag Bilawal in the melody, and Shubham wins points for keeping the arrangements and music production minimal. Ishan Das and Deepanshu Sharma are the guitarists, with the latter also involved in additional music production. The beautiful aalap entices you further, and as the song progresses, I also get a hint of Raag Bihag. especially when we hit the Antara. The song continues to tread along as a mix of pop and Indian classical Tumri, and the authenticity of the latter is given more meaning with Shubham’s harkatein.
The mild intervention on the harmonium is, and it is constantly playing, just feels closer to home , but the highlight was the interlude on the Sitar, and the introduction of the Tabla. This bridge section is where Shubham explores the higher end of his vocal range as well. “Meri Aankhen Saari raat” is where I am reminded of the phrase “aaja saanjh hui” of AR Rahman’s “Luka Chuppi” from the album ‘Rang De Basanti’. Shubham plays the Tabla and the mild flute in the outro as well, and the tracks are mixed and mastered by Pranav Gupta.

4. Aadat Nahi Hai
Written and performed by Akshath
Music Produced by Akshath
Language: Hindi
Genre: Alt-Pop
Mood: Romance
Akshath Acharya has been on my radar for many months now, and I have mentioned his work on IG whenever I have found interesting tracks by the youngster. This single deserved a feature, and so here we are. Keys and rhythms make the song’s intro, and I loved the pause just when he begins to sing “Jab Tak Sansein Chalegi, Jab tak yeh dhadkan rahegi”. The accompanying lead guitar by Dhananjay Chhetri, keys by Nathan Thampy, and drums by Sahil Shah give that nice colouring of Alt-Pop. Akshath has written the melody, the lyrics, performed the lead vocals and also produced the song. My heart swells in joy listening to sing this beautiful line with gentle harkatein “ Teri hasi, Teri Khushi, ki kami hamesha lagegi”. It is around here that the song’s sound design and tone reminded me of Hoobastank’s “The Reason”.
I love how the intensity rises in the prechorus “Bheed har jagah hai, shor bad raha hai, haan tum to gaye ho kahaan”. And when finally the chorus segment comes after a pause, it's a downpour of musical showers. “Tujko bulane ki, dil ko manane ki, na phone kiye raat mein yun sujane ki, aadat nahi hai mujhe”, is as beautiful as they come, lyrically and notationally. Kudos to this young lad as he excels at singing and the songwriting parts, not to forget the apt music production choices. For example, when the second verse ends, and we arrive at the prechorus, the drums vanish, and his vocals are accompanied only by guitars and keys, which shows creative vision. A nice bridge section follows, making this track feel complete.
Gideon D’Souza is the director and editor of the music video, with Ihjaz Aziz as the DOP. The cast in the video are Gobind Singh Mehta, Muskaan Bisaria and Akshath himself. The tracks are mixed and mastered by Abhishek Ghatak.

5. Mai Na Jaau
Written and Performed by Shyam Jain and Shreya Jain
Music produced by Nakul Chugh
Language: Hindi
Genre: Tumri Pop fusion
Mood: Immersive
Shreya Jain and Shyam Jain write the lyrics, compose the melody and perform the lead vocals of this Tumri pop fusion number. There are strains of Shuddh Sarang in the melody, and the impeccable vocals of Shyam Jain combine with the western electronic pop elements infused by Nakul Chugh as the producer. “Mann ki preet tore, mann hi na maane” with thode dlightful harkatein, and the keys, rhythm programming in the background is a very soothing segment, ideal for the twilight time. The interlude on the Sitar solo with the background female aalap and Shyam Jain’s vocals creates a nice interlude space before Shreya Jain comes on board in the Antara.
Nakul drops the pacy rhythms and goes mild here on production, with only the Piano and the introduction of the Tabla. She goes on to deliver this classical Tumri melody with such elaborate ghamakas, and as we come to the end of the Antara, the harmonies, keys and Tabla combine beautifully. Hearing the outro with both Shyam Jain and Shreya Jain singing in harmony and the striking Sitar solo feels like a touch of bliss.

6. My Location
Written and Performed by Akshay Chowdhry
Music Production: Akshay Chowdhry & Vivek Thomas
Language: English
Genre: Rock
Mood: Immersive
I have been a fan of this guy's work, Akshay Chowdhry a.k.a. axe.shay , because not only is he a terrific performer on vocals, but he also gives you some fantastic soundscape with abundantly electrifying guitars. It is almost like a meditative chant as he sings, “ They know my location.” Once we get the triangulation of the location, the song gets a dramatic infusion of rock energy as the drums by the young Floyd Libera, electric guitars and basslines. The singing is evocative with oodles of passion and mild aggression in Akshay’s tone and delivery. The additional vocals that keep coming along with Akshay’s lead vocals are an element that works effectively.
Kudos to the lead guitar solo by Akshay as he gives an obliterating exhibition on the same. I also love how the part where he sings “I am finally free” just ends , and just how freedom and peace would sound, we get the introduction of the Tabla and the guitars and drums fade away. There is a solo on the electric guitar, and this is easily one of the most slick and addictive phases of the song. This face-melting performance on the lead guitar is pure masterclass stuff. The tracks are mixed and mastered by Vivek Thomas, who also has co-produced this track brilliantly with Akshay.

7. Ini Varumo
Vocals: Evugin
Lyrics: Vinayak Sasikumar
Music composed and produced by Anil Johnson
Genre: Soft Rock
Mood: Immersive
Anurag Rajeev Nayan plucks and pierces his way forward with the electric guitar riffs, and the song’s tempo and sound do everything right to keep you in a state of mystery. The movie Drishyam 3 did not get the great reviews and response of the earlier two instalments, but thankfully, the music here doesn't disappoint. Anil Johnson has composed this ballad and also handled all the arrangements and music production. But what truly stuns you is the voice of Evugin, where he reaches for the depths of his vocal range and comes out incredibly good.
Feel the power of rock music entering your domain as the lead guitar solo starts playing those counterpoints, with the resplendent drums by Marc D Muse power through. Evugin has more than a few tricks up his sleeve as he goes on to deliver some sultry falsetto notes as well. I love how all these live instruments come and stay without becoming overpowering, like the faint pianos and the suave bass guitar in the background, which can only be heard on closer attention.
The humming , just after the chorus segment, with the rhythm guitar in the background, and the lead guitar playing the same melody, is simply scintillating as Anil Johnson takes us back to the memory of Bryan Adams’ “Everything I Do, I Do It for You”, but the more I hear this, I was also reminded of “Tears in Heaven” by Eric Clapton. The song truly is captivating thanks to its arrangements, especially the guitars,as we get the constant lead guitar and some breathtaking basslines without any breaks. Vinayak Sasikumar writes the lyrics. Anurag, take a bow for that solo act in the interlude; it is a clear example of why more film composers should write and produce music that incorporates live instruments. The recording engineer is Nikhil Kakkochan, and the tracks are mixed and mastered by Balu Thankachan.

8. Pretty Blue Eyes
Written and Performed by Neil Umwi
Music Produced by Neil Umwi
Language: English
Genre: Folk-/Alt-Rock
Mood: Romance
The sound of the fiddle, and I'm transported to the countryside of the US, remembering the great folk music of the regions. Neil Umwi pens the lyrics, writes the melody, and performs the lead vocals with such style and purpose. What I love is that the lyrics paint a beautiful picture, as though the stuff Neil is describing is transpiring in front of our eyes. “Roll the windows, sunshinelightin up her pretty blue eyes” with the accompanying rhythm guitar and drums is a case in point. Neil plays the acoustic guitar, Brian Daniels is on the fiddle, and Danielle Samrotta is the drummer.
Songdew Network deserves appreciation for promoting and distributing the good stuff, and it helps young artists; at least I came to know of this lad through the network. This week, I cannot think of a better song to play or sing and dedicate to my partner, Neil, who sings “Let your hall fall down while the wind blows, Kiss me on my lips and take it real slow”. The drums, guitars , and especially the lead guitar by Jewel Roy come and just pierce through your heart whenever he intervenes. Despite all the superlative arrangements and music production, none of it would have connected to the listener without Neil’s sparkling voice.
I also like this bridge section that comes and breathes some freshness with the words “blue eyes that chase all my bles away, a pretty smile that can change my day”. A solo on the fiddle teases away, and when we get to the final segment of the song, the energy is infused thanks to rhythm guitars and drums. Simon Johnson handles all the additional percussion and mixing/mastering duties.
