Hahaha... The strange this is that people go to "jazz" classes for 10 years or so to learn alternative beats, off-time rhythms and so on.. These guys learnt it in a completely different setting then any american jazz musician could imagine :)

You are a pathetic, ignorant and arrogant person. What do you know about Indian music? BTW, the third person is not a white man, he's Indian, but an Albino. His name is G Harishankar and arguably the best kanjira player, bless his soul!

The 3rd guy over, the white guy that looks out of place, is probable the ugliest "drummer" I've ever seen. I bet the whole place smells like armpits.
By: jazzbummer. on 17 Oct 08, 19:05:00
Do you understand what is going on in their minds while they are playing thise stuff? Meaning, can you explain the music/composition? Because, I am sure you know, its all improvised, played in a matter over like a hundred measure before coming back to the beggining while they are playing 11 over 5 (polyrhthms) without playing each note. meaning they will syncopate whatever number they are playing over 7/6, 4/9, 11/10, etc. Changing meters throughout each raga. That my friend, is what I desire.

Thankyou chykm! The US drumcorps can go and stick their drum sticks halfway down there arse cracks! they have nothing on these guys, nothing! if you dont understand music, dont bother commenting on it. The stamina, control, talent and unison of these three is beyond belief. They are magnificent in every respect. Open you "ears", listen to variation in tones of every beat, bass drop..all controlled by precise finger placement. you are a first class idiot, just enjoy what you have & stop moaning!!

That's what a Red Neck Skate Boarder would say. I'd drum you and your divorced parents into the ground Banjo Boy!

It's almost like this lame white guy found the American Drumcorps style of Percussion and thinks he has it all figured out... ...Open your ears.
By: defdeezy. on 28 Aug 08, 06:41:40
no, actually. i think it's your ears that have been left. it is you who has the lost the race! what a shame.
By: DrumlineFraternity. on 08 Aug 08, 16:13:43
It's almost like a race, and the musicality is left in the grandstands.
By: njochoa1. on 30 Jul 08, 15:52:54
this goes to show that the only great thing to come out of mankind is music.
By: schopenhauersring. on 14 Jul 08, 03:04:39
Speechless. Simply incredible. The speed and precision was awesome.
By: Mryaggi1. on 10 Jul 08, 22:59:06

Retarded Indian music? Listen closely from 1:35 to 2:02. And you will realize how retarded you are for saying that. Open your mind fucko.

I don't have to display my gender, because it's obvious to anyone who isn't an imbecile. And you're the dickhead who came here to cause trouble. Earn some more money sucking migrant workers' cocks, and then go back to school.

Oh, and it appears that you're even dumber than I thought. I'm not a lesbian, so no thanks. I don't need a girlfriend.
By: mistyblue221. on 12 May 08, 23:40:08
Check my page, moron. It says USA. Born and raised. If you think "shut u mouse" makes any sense in English, INS will have an easy picking you out and deporting your transvestite ass back south of the border.
