Eighth Avatar: Bikram Ghosh and "Krishna"



Today's random tune is by Indian tabla player Bikram Ghosh. While he is trained in various styles of tabla music, and performs Hindu classical music, he also is well known in the style of Indo-fusion music between the Hindu classical and other forms such as rock, new-age, and film music. Ghosh has performed with some of the greatest names in classical music, including Ravi Shankar with whom he performed for over a decade. However, he has also made his own name, establishing the band Rhythmscape and composing for 21 feature films. You can find this song, Krishna, on his 2011 album Drum Invasion.
