Demonte Colony Songs - Music Review

Ramesh Kannan S

Keba Jeremiah who did wonderful guitar works for Rahman in Rockstar, Kadal and in many other notable films turned into composer with Demonte colony. Let's check out how well songs turned out.

Vaada Vaa Machi:  (Listen Here)

Vaada Vaa Machi has an undeniable Anirudh's composition stamp all over it and the feel gets further accentuated by Anirudh's vocals. However, cult Thalaivar dialogue and guitars in the prelude along with enticing nathaswaram work throughout the song deserve special mention.The passable tune is the minor grouse in this composition.

Dummy Piece (Listen Here)

Keba Jeramiah shows his prowess in guitar work with Dummy Piece and Imman rendered the song with enough liveliness and his fangled rendition aids the song very well. Apart from guitar work, brass sections, country styled sax, percussion elements, acapella by playback chorus are also enjoyable.

Trap of the beast (Listen Here)

Trap of the beast sticks true to the title of the song with frenzy, brilliant guitar work by Keba Jeramiah. Arunraja Kamaraj tries to bring out the beast in his voice, but lyrics got totally sabotaged. Ranina Reddy fared better in that aspect by maintaining a fair balance in rendition and feel. 

Mystery unfolds 

Mystery unfolds, expansive theme with grand intimidating piano in the start and ends in a high note with exploding guitar work. Icing on the cake is surely Andrea Jeremiah's stunning backing vocals although confined to mostly humming.

The curse of Demonte 

The curse of Demonte is another neat instrumental theme by Keba Jeremiah where sweeping string sounds steal the show. Surely this will appeal much better with visuals.

Verdict: Keba Jeremiah's debut soundtrack is short, confined well within the genre of the movie. Although album sans any standout tracks, instrumental theme delivered by Keba surely will elevate the mood of the visual.

My rating: 2.75/5
