This piece moves through various sections of chinese inspired ambient and rhythmic music. Some melodic elements (Chinese main theme), but also some sections with just background ambience and Chinese percussion.
A dark and ominous piece with heavy use of the Taiko drum and japanese/chinese Gong. No melody, all percussion. Chase scene, etc. Full mix.
Traditional wedding music fom The Kangra region of Himachal Pradesh in India. The instruments used are the Pipdi - a reed blowing instrument some what similar to the Shenai used in other regions of India (Played by Mangal Ram from Bir Village), and the Nagara Drums - similar to the nagras in the plains (these are very old pieces) they are made of metal with skin stretched on the playing surface. The skin is tightened with straps that weave into the edge of the skin and meet at the centre bottom of the drums. Two drums are placed opposite each other and the drummer plays them with a cross stick action. The drummer here is Jondu Ram (father of Mangal Ram.) Please note: This is a genuinely live, on-the-spot recording, and as such, there may be slight flaws in the performance and recording.
Big uplifting African theme, very energetic, happy and driven and sweeping. Percussion, Voices, Strings, Flutes.
Slow reflective tune with acoustic guitar, flute, bassoon and strings.
Continual drone atmosphere with ambient electronics, didgeridoo, gutteral vocal incantations, and ethnic percussion make up this visual, hynotic, smokey tribal piece. Great for Docs, nature and ethnic scenes.
Simple hand drums rhythm, drone guitar, and piccolo flute in a celtic inspired groove.
Smart Folk spectacle with an Irish feel
