Here is an improvisation on my Hiren Roy sitar to a 6/8 tabla beat I made via my Roland Handsonic. Four different tracks of Indian drums create the majority of the percussion. The other two drum tracks are of a tuned gong and a xylophone in pentatonic scale.Towards the end of the song I bring in the Paul Reed Smith Hollowbody to play lead over the other tracks.
During the filming and recording of the sitar track a thunderstorm caused a blackout in my area. Fortunately the camera and zoom microphone are battery powered so I didn't lose the recordings.
The overall mood is pretty ambient and complex like an elaborate dream hence the name Sitar Dreamscape. Thanks for listening :-)
