Asian Groove CD

Product Description
The percussive music of Punjabi harvest festivals inspired the beginnings of South Asian bhangra-sung couplets about love and celebration accompanied by percussion on the dhol and tabla. Today bhangra has become a contemporary dance pop movement whose epicenter isn't Bombay, but Birmingham, in the midst of England's South Asian immigrant population. Funk, reggae, hip-hop, electronica, and Bollywood put a metropolitan spin on rural bhangra sounds. Artists on this addition to Putamayo's Groove series include Indian-Trinidadian sitarist Mungal, Indo-jazz flautist Deepak Ram, and singer Yulduz Usmanova who blends traditional Uzbekistanian music with modern pop.
