  • it os really very interesting............

  • Hmmm. I think the South Indian konnakkol artists do this much better. South Indian percussion is much more complex and challenging, and more interesting to listen to. The majestic South Indian "mridangam" is truly the king of percussion instruments. North Indian percussion seems to focus on speed only, and the taal patterns are so simple that any untrained person can count along easily, unlike with South Indian laya. But, as with Microsoft and Apple, the lesser instrument became more famous...

  • Geniusss!!!!

  • SIMPLY OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!

  • i love bickram. when i was in india i even got a chance to meet him and jam with him in kalcata at my mates house.

  • The face, torso and mouth aren't household objects, ;)

  • He's really good at tablas but this clip isn't so good.

  • Sickenly amazing. Imagining what it would be like to just come out with that when showing people around the flats I'm selling! Why do people buy childish pop music when there is so much more?!
