As a classical rock, i got to IR very late. I tried playing all IR songs. They didnt sound half as good as the real chords. I tried to replicate the chords by playing some occult shapes. much late later i realized that the freakin bass was the the real magic. The pure genius in the bass...omg. If somebody asks me what is IR known for, today i will say its the bass. Contrabass!!
Omg...omg, this is mindblowing !! So many different types of bass patterns just in one single song, n that too over a single drum rhythm that runs thru out the song...throw in the amazing chord progressions n the lovely bass runs in between in all types of tempos, the folk bit in stanza n ur own improvisations, u get nothing but a masterpiece....just how many bass techniques incorporated into one song, what was Raja sir thinking when he composed this...n Aalap ji u hv made a technically complex bassline look easy, that shows ur immense talent on bass, top class bassist, such tight playing n ur rhythm sense is world class, the grooves oh wow...keep doing this, looking fwd...just to add m just thinking how wld this bassline look on written score sheet, most players will run away...it will be that complex...
RAJA has done a lot like this. And lot of hidden magics are yet to be revealed. And I'm so thankful to Aalaap, for bringing out such compositions to limelight. To be frank.. I'm a BASS fan, in Raja's songs.
People would have listened to this song 100s 1000s of times but,if they come here and listen just to the bass lines,wow they would surely think its a new and refreshing song...
I was mind blown when i heard this song as a 10 year old on the big screen. Always wanted someone to cover the bass. Thank you dude. My veins are all flowing with eargasam...Vaazhge Bass Guitars and Bass Guitarists
If Maestro is the Ultimate name for music, then Alaap Raju is the Ultimate name in Bass Guitar.... This is it, nobody can play beyond this. Great work Aalaap ji... Please do the bass cover for malayalam song Puzhayorathil poonthoni etheela from the movie Atharvam, which is also a gem from Raja sir.
Just now I heard the song in IMM and was amazed by the bass guitar. Was searching for the Bass Guitar cover and here I am. Man what a performance..goosebumps.
The drums pattern suddenly give away to congas....and without batting an eyelid transforms back.. sheer genius! #RajaSirGreatest Thank you Aalaap for bringing out the nuances not just in your playing, but with your selection of songs as well saho. God bless!
amazing bass lines ... played amazingly well..! the way you express yourself is beautiful.. listened once for the bass, once for your expressions, once overall and many more...!
Whenever I heard this song, I skipped paying attention to the Bass lines that literally define the chords. Henceforth it's never gonna be that way. You've worked hard on this track, amazing job Aalaap 🙂much appreciation n respect my friend. I loved the way the lines went at 0.51-2.04. And then the higher octave phrasing at 2.50-3.05 there's so much flourish to the sound. At 3.14-19 those notes are not easy to figure out n it's difficult to maintain the tempo there lol. Totally killer stuff. I'm sure so many are gonna learn from this cover. I hope the man himself gets to hear you play his songs. Cheers n God bless your sincere efforts ❤️
Lovely videos brotha! Your videos reignited my love for ilayaraja, this song in particular takes me back to my school days when there were no responsibilities and life was simple. I always tune in to your channel when I have a beer after a long days work! Please do more Ilayaraja covers 🙏

Monster of monsters, Maestro Bass Boss, and Aalap yours is master class rendition, easily you are already or soon to be the top bassist of India. Felt like the bass guitar le oru Kuthu...awesome. Since there are lots of requests for Maestro's other language songs, whenever you get a chance may be a poll from all the youtube viewers for your upcoming songs will be good. Lastly, the extraordinary efforts, passion and practice by you is awe inspiring 👏👏👏 Love from NY
Mind blowing cover dear. Wow this song is one of my favourite during my teens. Another song from the same movie "Vaanam namakku veedi" has some amazing bass lines.. i remember during those days we need good stereo-set with big speakers if you really got to hear those bass lines clearly. Thanks to the technology these days, that a bass freak like me get to hear the bass lines distinctively played and over layed well with the song. Amazing!!! Your play is very precise and perfect. 1000 likes from me :-)
Hey❤❤.. I couldn't note anything to point out here 😍🥰😍 . From the beginning it's mind blowing 💕💞 . U added a new fresh color to dis colorful song😍🥰😍😍🌹🌹🌹
Wow! Amazing work! Perfect timing, zero missed notes, excellent flow, sliding, seamless alignment with the rhythm and excellent control! You are an Asuran of bass for sure!! Thoroughly enjoyed!👌😍
ஒரு முறை Dr SPB எங்களிடம் அவரது தண்டபாணி பதிவு கூடத்தில் சொன்னார் .. " நீங்கள் ஒரு பாடலை பாடப் போகிறீர்கள் என்றால் அந்தப் பாடலை நேசிக்க vவேண்டும் காதலிக்க வேண்டும்"" என்று .. அப் ji..நீங்கள் எந்த அளவு பாட்டையும் இந்த bass guitar ஐயும் காதலிக்கிறீர்கள் என்று ஒவ்வொரு video presentation போதும் tதெரிகிறது ..புரிகிறது .. இந்த notes இல்லாம கண்ண மூடி அசத்தறீங்க பாருங்க ..அங்க தான் நீங்க இருக்கீங்க Alap ji. Left speechless on seeing this. Sandhana kaatrey ...please As requested.
You made these timeless maestro bass lines (guess Raja wrote these lines or was it the bassist Shashi) sound splendid yet again... Anyway Aalaap as always ur playing looks effortless with these complex pockets and fills and with lots of grace too. Good work bro!
Unbelievable bass lines...This album is just world class...But people are still not recognising it as a gem of a creativity...
Oru Oru Songum oru PHD maadhiri irukku... Thats Raaja..
Exactly

And the Trumpts .. The heroic feel you get by trumpets in IR songs you won't get them in heavy metal songs
The Maestro is not bound by anything...Just Boundless like the universe...

Mind Blowing!!!!👏👏👏👏
Nobody will be able to compose a song like this except Maestro Isaignani!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
this is absolutely a flamboyant show. IR's Bass notes are complex composition which no one can perform in the planet.
Brilliant. Great fan of you 🎉

This entire album is a bassist’s dream … And you sir are kicking ass throughout..
Yes totally agree...Anjali movie songs were made just for the bass guitar...the bass shines in all the songs...it's a bass album
That’s why Raja is called ‘Bass, Mottai Bass’ 😀
Just now I heard the song in IMM and was amazed by the bass guitar. Was searching for the Bass Guitar cover and here I am. Man what a performance..goosebumps.
Amazing 😻, Sir please do Mottai madi cover
The drums pattern suddenly give away to congas....and without batting an eyelid transforms back..
