Mind twisters!

Songs written to reach the mass audience are always inharmonious; this was my opinion before listening to the songs from 'Raktabhisekham'. Raaja’s ability to amazingly decorate mass lyrics with His novel tunes and masterly orchestration, created interest in the songs which are usually avoided by class audience who think that these songs are not for them. Bringing richness to the songs meant for mass audience and elevating their standard of listening, is possible by one and only Raaja. Instruments become central and lyrics become trivial for me in these songs. Voice too, becomes an instrument and the feats of these instruments are heavenly. These are the must listen songs for all fans of Raaja, who explore His music.
Listen to this melody from Ashwamedham and enjoy the ride.
