David (Music review), Tamil – Prasanth Pillai, Bramfatura, Remo Fernandes, Anirudh Ravichander, Maatibaani & Modern Mafia
Bramfatura’s Vaazhkaiye is entirely within their characteristic moody electronica sound, with Siddharth Basrur doing a wonderful job with the vocals. Maria pitache is yet another Remo template – catchy, albeit...

Odum unakkithu is powered by Anna Katharina’s racy vocals and pulsating mod kuthu percussion that Gopi cleverly employs. Mukesh is in his elements with the spirited and superbly catchy Yemathitta,...
