I know Raaja's earliest basslines were played by Vasanth, Andrews & Viji. A thread through the night on the ones I think were performed by Sasi. Do correct wherever I am wrong, if you guys have info. Starting with Bach running through the veins. GOAT bass
Kodai Kaala Kaatre. What beautifully crafted and performed basslines man
When the bass guitar played a thillana. here is the knowledgeable @violinvicky writing a wonderful note on that. Bass guitar in lead role with chorus vocals backing a thillana in Mohanam for climax BGM. Wild. https://solvanam.com/2012/12/25/%E0%AE%AA%E0%AE%BE%E0%AE%B8%E0%AF%8D-%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%9F%E0%AE%BE%E0%AE%B0%E0%AF%8D-%E0%AE%A4%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%B2%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%B2%E0%AE%BE%E0%AE%A9%E0%AE%BE/
The GOAT among 7/8 songs. Alternation between Mridangam/Tabla in charanam and 7/8 brilliance aside, how the bass cuts it at every second beat is magic
Title theme sampling kung-fu sounds. Absolutely groovy and funky af basslines
Well of course
One of my most favourite bass covers of the song



Prasanna doing justice to Thumbi Vaa. GOAT song https://www.facebook.com/guitarprasanna/posts/10158771392323956?__cft__[0]=AZUQo1eRbHjOfhvgzOD0HrT9hzVaWToZ1CivGM4IQBO_k8sbYkIrQg5Z2CCXdq0EXyqzqk5Xv8Aa2ndoxSa-apo48L8XIVrWz9SAUVZacfKPZEUQplgZ_veKLWK4N1hvSRbJaV7kgiS3O0_K3Bse-sptXsctsi3K1oAn4gPJHlJKZg&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R Song
To quote @dagalti, the instrument bass guitar was invented in the 1930s for this song to be composed in 1984
The basslines of this song gets seldom spoken about. Absolutely magical stuff. Excellent drumming from the late Puru too.
Gorgeous basslines. Thanks to @AynavaramGopal for reminding
Lovely cover of Kanmani Anbodu
The entire stretch from 1:13-1:35. கெட்டவார்த்த பேசித் தான் பாராட்ட முடியும். வேற என்னத்த சொல்ல...
The bass slaps and riffs from 3:05. As kids these days say, vera level
Very cool basslines and excellent classical guitar riffs too (Prasanna's first song for Raaja: https://www.facebook.com/guitarprasanna/posts/10158768934428956?__cft__[0]=AZXIdlM8oQbusOTYTC7fdXPmoANPFTs_VutFAjBtB6qT2w8L0gz2AtAfvlEeOZ-SVMu98EWtnfg2nsidK6-iWDlAXXmhhFBcGEonEwi-sXlirK18lN2nlhpTKFBoz3j8GfL8Ht10Mtezu28VCFIcTzcf&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R)
The bass adds its own life to this song already full of life (thanks to @podidosai for reminding)
Little known film (poorly made film is evident if you give a cursory glance at the trailer) but the bass riffs and slaps in the title theme from 1:16 absolutely crazy stuff <end thread> RIP Sasi.
@podidosai this was the theme.
