Kaantha
Singers: Sooraj Santhosh, Varun Sunil
Lyrics: GKB

The unconventional album begins on a classical note with shades of Raaga Harikambhoji and Sahana in full flow. The song has various shades of Hindustani Music as well as modern rock with live drumming and lovely strings. The master stroke occurs with the usage of Saarangi in this regard. The flavor of Masala Coffee is evident throughout the composition with the fusion touch.

Maane Maane
Singers: Anthony Daasan
Lyrics: Anthony Daasan

The detour occurs almost abruptly with a heart wrenching folk rendition of Anthony Daasan with peppy Electric guitar fused with thavil and bass riffs.  The chord progression is out of the world with timely changeovers and pitch perfect presentation. The usage of digital keyboard and trombone in the first interlude is another master move from the composer.

Agnikunjondru
Singers: Sooraj Santhosh
Lyrics: Bharathiyar

A crisp finale occurs in major shades of Carnatic Raaga Sindhu Bhairavi with angry electric guitars and live drumming joining the musical feast. Set in aggressive 5 beat khandam cycle, this is a mesmerizing pandemonium. Masala Coffee gives a new a meaning for Bharatiyar’s legendary poem in the so called Alternative Rock style with fantastic rendition as well. A straightforward winner!
