But instead, we get Hey Nijame that reflects the depth in their exploration of love. For example, a Visiri would be the usual ‘newly-in-love’ song. It’s beautiful how Darbuka has reimagined the mood we usually associate with the situations.
The young composer beautifully captures the various moods of love and the euphoria it brings, from the breathless Naan Pizhaipeno, the foot-tapping Thirudaadhe, the soulful Hey Nijame, the saccharine Visiri, to the centrepiece, Maruvarthai. In contrast to Justin’s love for solid sounds, Darbuka whips up 50 shades of trance in this album that refuses to lose its allure. Every song from the album is a beauty - be it the dreamy Pularaadha or the lilting Gira Gira or the charming Aagasa Veedu Kattum.Īnother favourite album of this year would be Darbuka Siva’s Enai Noki Paayum Thota. I’ve always been a fan of Justin’s quiet, minimalist melodies, and he had quite the landmark year with Dear Comrade, which is a beautiful marriage of classic sounds with processed ones. Leading this list, for me, would be Justin Prabhakaran, Darbuka Siva, and Sean Roldan. It has been quite the year for relatively younger names in the industry, the ones who haven’t quite made it into the A-list yet, but are making their mark with a solid dose of fresh, addictive music.
