The first thing that strikes you in a Raghu Dixit soundtrack is the eclectic nature of the sound. After the phenomenal success of Psycho songs and a long wait Raghu Dixit is back with Just Maath maathalli. The talented musician has scored some soulful numbers in JMM, nevertheless the buzz he created with Psycho for some reasons seems to have died down in Just Maat maathalli. Here we take a peek-a-boo at what’s in store.

Just Maat Maathalli: Raghu Dixit uses his rock star voice and a western instrumentation. The short, catchy title song is the soundtrack’s breezy highlight.

Yello Jhinugiruva: the rhythmically persistent bass and Shreya Ghoshal’s cheerful rendering of this track make it worth a listen. Although this song doesn’t have the typical Raghu Dixit touch that we witnessed in Psycho, it’s still a chirpy number and the lyrics by Sudhir Attavar & Raghavendra Kamath are tailor-made for this song.

Munjaane Manjalli: It’s interesting how Raghu Dixit manages to be melodious in this song even with relentless bass and his own unforgiving voice. The song has a decidedly western balladic touch to it.

Ee Kaninalli: This one seems more like a Ragu Dixit take on the hit Pichle Saat Dinon from Rock On. While Lakshmi Manmohan’s voice provides a bouncy overtone to the number, the track isn’t something to rave up all about.

Baanina Haniyu: A gloomy violin and a gloomier Raghu Dixit in top pitch try their best to make you experience the seriousness of the situation. They succeed to some extent, ably supported by Manojava Galgali’s philosophically depressing lyrics.

Marubhoomiyalli: Well not being harsh, but to be frank this one’s a forgettable track in every aspect.
