Indian Music

For a minute shut your ears from the beatings of the pop culture. We've heard a lot of RnB, a lot of pop rock and rap! Now let's eavesdrop to music from the crevesce of the Indian soul. Take a deep breath and just stride along with the rythm.

Although it may sound like a blab from outer space and the words?...more likely it will be impossible to decipher, you may actually find it soulful, moody and a bit complex once you give it a shot and starts to reel with the flow. The closest thing to compare it with is jazz. However, the Indian lilting sounds are more defined and tight while jazz is slack and rather smooth.

Have you ever heard Ravi Shankar, Ali Akbar, Yehudi Menuhin? If not, you might as well change your mind into getting acquainted with them. They will be future music gems, India's best bet to introduce their music to the world.

This beautiful sound you may want to start humming along with, sprang out of a classical Indian jive. It has inspired many bands and solo career artists both in the region and up across the west. Hopefully, this will lead to a marriage of east and west, at least in music, combining both structures to soothe the listening crowd. .

The recent upbeat child of Indian music is the modern Hindi "pop". It incorporates the hypnotic raga moods with modern rhythms. I've heard this influence not only in India but in famous foreign artists as well. You may want to scurry away from the blast of that radio speaker or the trivial love songs for ages, instead listen this unique culture and hymn.
