Sakeido's World Music Moment - intense tabla and sitar shredding

sakeido · 09-23-2007, 04:08 PM

I'll do up one of these every week for the next three months. I don't know if anyone else here finds this kind of thing as interesting as I do, but there is some really crazy classical music from abroad out there.

I like it, but I would have loved it with a 8 string guitar on top.

Fucking sweet, keep 'em coming.

How 'bout some Vishwa Mohan Bhatt?

Oh yeah, or if you find a really good hammered dulcimer player. I've found some decent ones before but they're always people on the side of the road or something, never professionals.

I love this stuff though. I spend more time listening to world music and classical than anything else these days.

I'm actually taking it as an option at university right now

I took it just as a GPA booster, but it turns out it is really very interesting and my Western-schooled mind boggles at the complexities of middle and far Eastern music theory.

I always find it very interesting how people's ears develop in different cultures. It's like any sounds that are played frequently enough somehow evolve into something that we consider pleasant (like how 3rds were dissonant at one point as well as 7ths). We're just so used to hearing western scales, chords, and rhythms that when we hear Indian music or something out of the far east it sounds completely exotic. I'm sure to some extent our music sounds just as crazy to them.

I LOVE Indian music!

EDIT: Movable frets FTW!

I am not so sure about that. It is very easy to adapt our music into their systems (from what I have learned so far) but much more difficult to adapt their music to ours, since we do not have fractional steps like they do. If anything, they might be floored by how simplistic and uncomplicated our music theory is
