Travel Through World Beats
Traditional Instruments, Modern Production
World beats layer regional instruments and rhythms over contemporary drums and bass, which keeps the character of the source material while making it sit in a modern mix. Tabla, dhol, sitar, bansuri, kalimba, oud and hand percussion all appear alongside programmed low end.
- Regional percussion driving the groove instead of a standard kit.
- Melodic instruments carrying scales and ornamentation outside Western pop convention.
- Contemporary sub-bass and drum weight underneath for modern playback.
- Arrangements that leave the traditional instrument exposed rather than buried.
