'''''Kumki''''' is the [[soundtrack]] to the [[Kumki (film)|2012 film of the same name]] directed by [[Prabhu Solomon]], starring [[Vikram Prabhu]] (in his film debut) and [[Lakshmi Menon (actress)|Lakshmi Menon]]. The ten-song soundtrack consisted of seven musical numbers composed by [[D. Imman]] and written by [[Yugabharathi]], and [[karaoke]] versions of three songs. ''Kumki'' is Imman's second collaboration with Solomon after ''[[Lee (2007 film)|Lee]]'' (2007) and ''[[Mynaa]]'' (2010).

The soundtrack which mostly consisted of folk and melody numbers, released at a launch event in Chennai on 1 August 2012, with the album being distributed by [[Sony Music India]]. It received generally positive critical response with praise directed towards its compositions and lyrics and fetched Imman his maiden [[Tamil Nadu State Film Award for Best Music Director]] and [[Filmfare Award for Best Music Director – Tamil|Filmfare Award for Best Music Director]] amongst other accolades.

== Background ==
Solomon and Imman considered the film's music to have a significant importance as it was a [[musical film]], and they believed music would help in enriching the visuals and story.<ref name=":1">{{Cite news |last=Kumar |first=S.

S. Viswanathan]] and [[Kannadasan]] would work on a song together, Imman added "today each is in a different place, one composes the tune and sends it and the other gives the words for it. The director could be in any corner of the globe listening in and giving the green signal. But for ''Kumki'', the three of us were physically present at the studio to decide on the music."<ref name=":0" />

The composing sessions were held at a stretch as Solomon would often meet Imman to discuss about ideas for a new song and would improvise any tunes and compositions.<ref name=":0" /> Imman had further experimented on variety of genres and instrumentations as the soundtrack encompasses folk and tribal music. For the song "Onnum Puriyala", the track was initially recorded with three singers,{{efn|name=singer}} but Solomon dissatisfied with the vocals zeroed on Imman after he hummed few lines of the track, which satisfied their expectations.{{efn|name=singer|The name of the singer(s) were undisclosed by Solomon}}<ref name=":0" /> For "Ayayayoo Aananthamey", Solomon initially wanted to bring two popular singers giving huge remuneration in advance and had recorded in [[Mumbai]], but he was not satisfied as Solomon wanted the feel and expression of a mahout in the voice that should scream of jubilation and should not be digressed. Solomon then narrated the story to [[Haricharan]], who was brought in for recording the track, and eventually sang the song like how a mahout would.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":0" /> [[Alphons Joseph]] sung the track "Nee Yeppo Pulla".<ref name=":0" />

While most of the album consisted of melodic numbers, the film had two tracks "Yella Oorum"—a travel song and "Soi Soi"—a folk number, which were considered to be "racy".<ref name=":1" /> "Soi Soi", according to Imman, was in the same lines of "Jingi Jingi" from ''Mynaa''. Imman used a [[Pipe (instrument)|pipe]] to reproduce the trumpeting of the elephants in particular intervals, as well as roping the [[Vedanthangal]]-based [[Buddhar kalaikuzhu]] troupe for performing local percussions.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Kumar |first=S.
