Nice music. Thanks! Anyone know where I can get a metal frame drum like the ones they're playing?

@BretCohenSounds

Unfortunately, we do not have any but that just means you might have to make a trip to India!

[BretCohenSounds]

@rhythmtraders I just might have to! :)

Cool. Drums sound like a mix between middle eastern and east african. But the rhythm is definitely sub-continent based, like the folk Sufi style of the dhol, and lyrics speak for themselves.

@rhythmtraders That would be great...it's kind of hard to find.
