Temeraire art for Yuletart, and a hindi song

[ileliberte]

The yuletart reveals were today. I did Temeraire art for _bounce_, who asked for Laurence and Temeraire having a moment of quiet. First time I ever did Temeraire art and I'm kind of happy with they way it turned out :)

Here's some music to go with this not-quite-an-art-post. It's from the movie Dil Se, (awesome, amazing)music by A.R.Rahman. The song, Chhaiya Chhaiya has a wonderful dance-y rhythm, interesting instruments with fun little interludes in the middle, a lovely male voice and an awesome video to go with it. The song's on my server, so please right click and save :)

The monster was cool, it actually convinced me to check all the stuff out!

I took my time and listened to some repeatedly to figure out if I would listen to them again - these are the ones I kept: jpeg for my tabs (http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l212/nargynargy/ililibmusic.jpg). Haha, I'm too lazy to type them out. The first tab is Anbae (from Rhythm) in case you're wondering. You're very right, he does have a lot of skill in mixing completely different styles - I was expecting that becuase of Dil Se (tamil and muslim influences right? I'm a bit uneducated in styles but I think hear that) but this was way more eclectic than I imagined! I think the arab style songs really surprised me.

My favourite was actually Ada, so beautiful in it's simplicity. I have a thing for poetic lyrics (hindi songs do that so well GAH) and I just kinda melted at the without land/sky part. Schmoop, I do love it so :D.

ALSO, headdesk, apparently I've been listening to Rahman's compositions for a while now without realising. My older brother, who's more Indian movie inclined than I am, used to play Guzarish and Tu meri Dost Hain all the time! I just didn't know and referred to them as 'Tu meri adhoori pyaas pyaas' and 'Aaja main hawaon pe bithake le chalun' in my head because I'm lame like that (I googled the spellings \o/). I do like those songs a lot :D

So yes, I will be downloading those tabs a little later. I think there are many many factors that make me like a song so this may be hard for you but yeah, I might ask for some other recommendations - especially of the Ada variety? His Dil Se songs are still my favourites though if that helps :).

I just posted two songs that I think you might enjoy, interesting lyrics, not too busy or at least not in a complicated way, and really good voices. I'll just upload a few at a time from songs I haven't yet shared (you've gone through all the ones I posted, right?) that I think you might like :)
