love it how you guys have a racist debate, yes, both sides are pretty racist. By racist I mean ignorant. And by ignorant I mean the title's spelling is "precussion"
Wow you guys need to chill out. I clicked on this vid to see a drummer I never heard of, not a bunch of racist comments. Music is suppose to bring people together! Also, I cannot believe this is the 21st century and you guys can't have an intelligent debate. How about talk about what music means to you and your favorite artists instead of immediately yelling racial slurs at one another. You should use this media to learn about one another, not to spread hate.
u cant critisize a percussionist as sivamani sir ...first all of u should know about him properly ...wat he has ..all his achievements and everything..and then critisize.do u know how much of musical and percussion background he comes from !?.do u pl kno how much of an experience factor he has!.behind the screens do u know how many ppl he'l jammed with !...do u kno how many western drummers look upto him wen it comes to independence and style!? bloody yuck it seems! canon balls to all of u!
I don't think it has anything to do with being white or non white. Shivamani is honestly not a world beater by any standards. He was born in a time when drummers in India were obscure. Hence the hype. And don't tell me I don't know about music, be it Indian or American. I am classically trained and have an ear for good music. There are many traditional percussionists in India who deserve this attention. Shivamani is average at best.
@TejasM14 Absolutely right. People who think Sivamani is great don't know anything at all about percussion. Saying white people can't drum is absolute nonsense if they haven't listened to the greats out there. (Pert, Portnoi, and several others.). Even in India, there used to be this guy called Roberto Narain (ex drummer of that stupid metal band from bangalore.. i forget the name.. cos they really sucked). But he broke off and started playing with some Jazz and fusion people. OMG!
western drumming is good but jus bout any tom , DICK, n harry can do it... (pun intended)... this guys a genius cuz he can blend 2 different styles in one n get the ppl tapping their foot... so all u die hard metal fanatics n wannabe western drummers can suck ur own drumsticks like a cock!!! SIVAMANI RULZZ!!!
@westeast1800 REALLY? Shivamani sucks. Seriously, most western drumming is so much more complex than this. Listen to Tomas Haake, Danny Carey, Mike Portnoy...
you white people should know that all you talk about is while keeping metal drummers in mind...but this man is a percussionist and he's got the indian beats..as we people can dance !!
and if you come to india you dont get the western beat..this is the indian beat..learn to appreciate cultures !!

this is pure bull crap. he is skillful. he can play fast and that's about it. music is not about how fast you can play. it's how good you compose and if you can play fast, it's an added bonus. i did not want to write it but i wrote it anyway. you guys are blind. i am indian btw :P
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I dont see anything unique in him.Why is he called the king of percussion? Is it because he is surrounded by 100s of drums all the time??..He just hit the drums.Thats all.Theres isnt anything creative.Its a pain for the ears sometimes.
will i agree with you that the nation that pioneered many of the advanced mathematics we still use today are dumb?
a bad school system? it's not the greatest maybe, but we don't need to prosper in india, we're indian, we take your jobs away from you in your very own country, whether you are dutch english american, no matter, you have a good education system, we'll take advantage of it
now don't respond to me, my first comment was responding to someone who was insulting indians
@BoxerMonkey Well, there are non white people who also think Sivamani is actually well below average. He is popular just like how britney spears and mallika sherawat are popular - bells and whistles. No real substance. If you want to listen to good drumming.. in the western world, listen to Mike Portnoi, in India, try to go to a concert by Roberto Narayan.
