Oru swapnasundara...
Oru swapnasundara... Lyrics & Chords
My first upload for the year.Here is another song from my album ‘Rajneegandhi’. A romantic duet composed as a simple melody. I have used very little of synthetic tones to create a period effect. The use of the Hawaian guitar and santoor in the first BG should be listened to in this context.Upcoming singer Kabeer who has many albums to his credit sings the male lead with Aparna.

Rajeev etta….what a wonderful composition ……and a great way to unwind my night listening to this lovely song. Both Aparna and Kabeer has rendered this brilliantly….loved Kabeer’s manly and Aparna’s sweet voice. The beginning swaras and the santoors took me to a diff world ….the use of santoor and the low notes ….enhance the beauty of this composition…just lovvved it. Your arrangements are special as you dont go for synthetic instruments….kudos.

Fabulous composition – love the selection of the ragam(s), the tune – the BG is very aptly subtle for the setting but felt the guitar chords could be a bit more to the front but that could just be a recording mix artifact – and the singers Aparna and Kabeer are par excellence in both their voice qualities and the expressive renditions. Kudos on this project and good luck for the success of this album.

What a lovely piece of serene music. Loved the soothing arrangement esp the Santoor and Flute. Flute pieces were really calming. About the vocalists, they did full justice to the expressions this song demanded. Overall it is a 5 Star composition !!!

Flabbergasting employment of ‘Hawaian guitar’ and ‘Santoor’… Thanks for keeping us informed about the usage of those… Both the singers are class-personified… Great rendering by Aparna and Kabeer covering all those subtle details with oodles of expressions… Good Luck to the team and wish this does a grand business in the market… Thanks for sharing this and great to have this as your first upload for this new year…
Thanks,

Rajeev, this sure sounded a song from a different time – but then most of yours that i have heard so far does have that feel – BG or not :-). Very good work again, Rajeev. (Interesting and unexpected landing of naam there) Aparna and Kabeer were very good too. Enjoyed listening to this,

Rajeev Sir: Lovely song – a soothing melody and well sung by Aparna and Kabeer. As always, loved the choice of instruments. Interesting rhythm towards the end (Ganjira?) Is it brindavana saranga?

Lovely melody – was such a pleasure to listen to this song. The orchestration was very well knit and the whole song gelled together beautifully. Aparna & Kabeer have done a great job emoting – liked their voices a lot. Thoroughly enjoyed this song – a very hummable & catchy number. Wishing you all the best for the album.

Lovely song, Rajeevji, beautiful raaga to base it with – Brindavani sarang right? I liked how you chose to bring the poorvanga aspect of this raaga in the vocals for the pallavi. Soulfully rendered by Aparna and Kabeer. As always, your orchestration was rich and mellifluous.
All the best for your album,
-Sudha

Hi Rajeev sir……
What should i comment about such a neat & clean work by an outstanding artist like you !!!…….BRILLIANT & VERY SIMPLE IN IT’S APPROACH !!!
We people (trivandrum guys) always feel very romantic & nostalgic towards such kind of numbers……Kabeer’s entry was perfect Rajeev sir………Superb voice na……Hope he will get lots of chances soon…….Aparna also sung very well……….But the real hero is the composition itself……….It reaches our heart very easily & convincing all the facts involved in it…….Great work sir……
All the very best & goes to my favourites….
