tablas

are great! I was reminiscing of some indian beat stylings that are so familiar to me from being raised around a lot of that music, so i went youtubin' for performance videos of the various instruments.

I found this father and son duo and i watched all 5 parts of their concert. if some of you don't realize, you'll notice that the two are perfectly in sync, so even on the random super-fast hand waving, it is all composed parts written ahead of time. they have very complex time signatures that can be nothing like what we find in any western music, i mean this is the kind of stuff these guys are doing in there head
