(South)Indian music Rockzzzz !!!

With so much of marketing and publicity hype associated with films releasing off late , one can fear that the starry PR efforts are going to take away the honors that many movies deserved.

I still keep wondering the need of the lead actors stealing the limelight of the audio releases of these wonderful musical movies. Perhaps the astronomical budget threatens the makers to go for cosmetics well before the release of the movie, not realizing that good music can even make a difference to those movies.

Commercialization of everything obviously prefers change in good conventions. But from my personal experience, the music compositions of a few movies have been received even better than movies.

Jodha Akbar, Dhaam Dhoom and even Himesh's innovative attempt of Dasavatharam find special mention from that long list.

Its only obvious that these music genii can better themselves every time , the reach is beyond horizons which makes me feel proud.

Rahman is growing better every day like old wine, Harris though gives great tunes though the style has been predominantly the same.

I know I would invite wrath by adding Himesh to this crazy list but 2 of his songs from Dasavatharam make me feel that he has something to offer to good ears too !

I have become so crazy of good music because in such a profession other organs are bound to get exhausted so easily that I rely upon ears to refresh a bit of me everyday.

My three cheers for ecstatic composers who are taking our music to greater heights, perhaps to more listeners amidst the starry affairs which dominate the modern day media.

Cheers !
