Very nice.Educative. good way to improve Swara Gnananm.Remember madhura mani iyer

His Kaapi’s are heavily flavored and highly addictive: 
Of the 5000 plus songs composed by Raja sir, the kaapi raga song Thumbi Vaa has been re-used for a record number of 6 times including the original. Thumbi Vaa (Olangal), Sangathil Padadha (Auto Raja), Aakasham Enaditho (Nireekshana), Monday To Utkar (Aur Ek Prem Kahaani), Mood Kapi (Live Concert in Italy) and Gum sum Gum (Paa). Balu Mahendra sir who is also the Director/Cinematographer of Olangal, Nireekshana and Aur Ek Prem Kahaani thanked Ilayaraja sir for giving this outstanding melody to his film and said that this is the best song of Ilayaraja sir for his films during the Neethan En Pon Vasantham Audio Launch held at Nehru Stadium in front of 5000 plus packed audience. 
Mood Kaapi went on to become one of the celebrated compositions of all time including a strong fan following in Italy and many European Countries. 
The song of this post is an outstanding composition in Kaapi Ragam, one of the 4 songs sung by Dr.Rajkumar in Raja sir’s music, three for this film Nee Nanna Gellalare (1983) and the last one in Ramesh Arvind starrer Hoomale (1999). In this song Jeeva Hoovagithe, the phrase "I love you" has been used harmonically as per western classical music and in the prelude where the hero and heroine are shown romancing in slow motion on the road, it has been used as NERAVAL -  a carnatic concert technique where a single word or a particular phrase is taken and the singer keeps manipulating the melodies within the confines of the raga. Example the line "rara devathi deva" in the song Balakanakamaya (You may listen to Salangai oli or Sagarasangamam).  Even though this song was a super hit in Kannada, one of the recent renditions of a young girl in Kannada Super Singer type of program won SPB sir’s big appreciation which introduced this song to the current generation of youngsters and children. 
The song according to me is also a classic example of the composer’s selection of keyboard tones which are extremely pleasing to the ear and does not give a feel of electronic sound.  
Complete song list in Kaapi:
1.	Sirithal Sirippen aval oru – Mariyamman Thiruvizha (1978)
2.	Hey Padal Ondru – Priya (1978)
3.	Thumbi vaa – Olangal (1982)
4.	Sangathil Paadatha – Auto Raja (1982)
5.	Thaayum Naane – Engeyo Ketta Kural (1982)
6.	Kanne Kalaimane – Moondram Pirai (1982)
7.	I love you (Jeeva Hoovagithe) – Nee Nanna Gellalare (1983)
8.	Thanni Thotti – Sindhu Bhairavi (1985) – No other composer in the world would conceive a song for this situation in a heavy carnatic raga like Kaapi and handling it so light exactly suiting the situation and maintaining the status of the carnatic musician in the film JKB can sing only classical even if it is a dappankuthu
9.	Aakasham Enatidho – Nireekshana (1986)
10.	Ada maappilla – Siva (Rajini starrer) – 1989
11.	Chembaruthi Poovu  -  Chembaruthi (1992)
12.	Sami Kitta Solli Vachu – Aavarampoo (1992)
13.	Monday to Utkar – Aur Ek Prem Kahaani (1997)
14.	Oranjaram usharayya – Kaakkai chiraginile (1999)
15.	Thiruvasagam – Putril Vaaz (Ragamalika) - Kaapi has been used from "Kiliyanaar kilavi anjen" till "aliyiladhavarai kandaal" (2004)
16.	Sun oh yashoda maiya (Bhajan sung by Preeti Uttam) – Ilayaraja’s music journey – Live in Italy (2006)
17.	Mood Kaapi  - Ilayaraja’s music journey – Live in Italy (2006)
18.	Gum sum gum – Paa (2009)

Now read the title lines and justify the meaning yourselves




His Kaapi's are heavily flavored and highly addictive_Ilayaraja Sir_The God of Music

"The carnatification", a carnatic musical presentation on a electric guitar is what makes the album entirely different from the others in the market. The  carnatification is nothing but CARNATIC MODIFICATION . The album is filled with pure essence of carnatic music of highest order, comprising of high standard and popular krithis by the greats such as muthuswamy dikshidar, thyarajar, periyaswamy thooran , patnam Subramaniayam Iyer, madurai mani Iyer and purandaradasar. And as a highlight have my first composition too, a peppy ragamalika number. 
               
                   THE UNIQUENESS 

               The album is distinctly unique for the style of playing with double octaves , harmonies, and artificial harmonies and highly grooved swara sections which are completely new to the audience of carnatic. . I LL assure it to be a youth favorite because of the electric guitar factor and the recording quality and the brand names in the album.

              BIG SHOTS IN THE ALBUM

            THE CARNATIFICATION  has some real big names who are currently at the peak in the carnatic feild. I have been accompanied by my dad and percussion maestro Prapancham Ravindran on the mridangam , kanjira maestro B.S.Purushottam and hugely reputed DR.S. Karthick on the Ghatam. The 3 rhythm heroes have provided some brilliant grooves with the electric guitar , thus making it sound epic.
