Fusion & Contemporary Rhythms

I love to experiment by blending the timeless sound of the tabla with modern genres like hip-hop, electronic music, and jazz. This section shows how I can create unique tabla loops, collaborate with western instrumentalists, or add a fresh rhythmic layer to your contemporary track.

Solo Tabla Compositions

This collection features solo tabla performances where I explore intricate compositions, complex time signatures, and traditional 'kaidas' from different 'gharanas' (schools of tabla). This is a deep dive into the technical and artistic possibilities of the tabla as a solo instrument.

Beyond Tabla: Percussion & Sound Design

While tabla is my primary instrument, I often layer other percussion to create a fuller sound for a track. This section shows my work with the Cajon, shakers, and even a modified tambourine, as well as my process of using Ableton to sample and produce rhythm tracks.

My Gurus & My Legacy

My music is a direct reflection of the invaluable lessons from my gurus. This section is a tribute to my father and Guru, Pandit Sunil Banerjee, and my other teachers who have shaped my journey. Their guidance is the foundation of every beat I play.
