Maathey ( Sudha Raghunathan cover )-Morning Raaga

This is my first recording in almost a month and a half, been posting my unpublished recordings all this while thanks to a nasty throat…

This is from the movie Morning Raga and just brilliantly rendered by Sudha Raghunathan, one of the most innovative carnatic vocalists South India has ever produced.

This is a vocal cut, so have tried my best to make the vocals work with it. And, fulfilling the request of quite a few muzibians who have asked me to sing a classical number. Happy Vijayadasami to all of you….Here goes…

Movie: Morning Raga
Raagam: Khamas
Dharu Varnam composed by: Muthiah Bhagavathar
Originally sung by: Sudha Raghunathan
Original BGM Music by: Mani Sharma
Leads and Mix: Meera Manohar
K-track: Nitin Dubey

Thanks Nitin, appreciate your time on this one :)

Jai: thanks for the comment, and welcome to Swarasthaanam!

I use a Mac platform, logic express 8, apogee duet and a rode NT1A mic for recording. Good tracks are usually very hard to come by. There are some sites which sell it but none of those are gauranteed to be good though. You might want to try musicmusiconly.blogspot.com- this has some for free.

I happened to listen to the song after closing my eyes. Sudha Raghunathan finally has some competition. This can easily replace the original. Fell in love with this. Tight hugs!!

That was soulful. It sounds great with the passion and love shown throughout. It sounds great than the original, with a degree of innocence in the voice. Sad that people wont belive its been sung by someone other than Sudha Raghunathan, for it sounds on par or beter than the original. Keep more of them coming.
