about

Location: Rishikesh, India

The tablas in the track are sampled from my young guide and friend in Rishikesh named Vijay. He was so kind and helpful, and never once asked me for money, and on my last day there, from the help of your donations and purchases of the tracks, I gave him his wish of a tabla set. (His dream is to be a great tabla master and to make his family proud and financially stable.) So this sample is taken from the very first beats to come from this gift. The woman singing was from a cd of an old Indian folk record, from maybe around the 60's. I picked it up at some random stand and have since lost it. If any Indians or anyone else might know who it is or what song it's from let me know.

There's a video for this track from footage I took of the amazing monkeys in Northern India. Most of it is from Dharamasala, Rishikesh, and Shimla.
