I too felt the robo sounds a lil old school. but then I navigate my ipod to 
listen "Rock that body" by black eyed peas, the most current in this genre, and 
teh little old Imogen Heap-"Hide and seek"..I dont see a lotaa difference. 
ofcourse we cant expect an "owl city" kinda music which may not support the 
character of a Robot!!Rahman might have done justfication based on the 
character but the movie has to support it. 

my favoroties:
Pudhiya manidha
Kadhal annukal
Irumbile oru idhayam
Kilimanjaro
Arima
Chtti dance

Im havin a hard time to get on groove with "Boom Boom Robo". the rap part is 
very low, the 1960s tune(siki mukki, automatic kara) of the song kinda dragging 
in bwteeen a fast pacy robo song..there are some good parts of it ofcourse!!
