Illayaraja's Experimentation with World Music(Excluding WCM)
Post the songs which Illayaraja has experimented in tamil film songs like tholin mele from thoongathe thambi thoongathe which had african rhythms. I believe you got the idea that im asking for songs which he had used other types of world music like south american rhythms...red indians etc etc.

-I think "Panimazhai Vizhum" (Enakkaaga Kaathiru) has heavy Oriental (Chinese/Japanese) influence in the orchestration. The same can be said of "Sempoove Poove" (Siraichalai).
-"Kaattu Vazhi Kaalnadiyaa" (Athu Oru Kana Kaalam) as most of you know has Celtic-sounding interludes.
-"Ilaiyanilaa Pozhigirathu" (Payanangal Mudhivathillai) was as far as I know the premiere Tamil film song with a Latino touch. "Saalaiyoram Solai" from the same song also has Spanish influence in its interludes.

What about the song "Thai..thaga thai" from Anthapuram? I just love the orchestration/rhythm in this song. I am amazed at IR's skill in handling the orchestration/rhythms. Is it our very own folk/tribal music or can it be attributed to some world (african??) flavour?
thanks,
Krishnan

I think I should also mention "Shubhavelai Naalainthu" from Thangamalai Thirudan (a Telugu dubbed film). The song starts with a Native American flute solo, and then we hear some Oriental-sounding music before KSC starts the song. The interludes however are more of the traditional Indian-Western type.
