| Sitar Mania by Ashwin Batish |
 |
Sitar Mania is the title track of Ashwin
Batish's raga rock fusion Sitar Power album
#2. As with the other Sitar Power songs, this
one is highly energetic and will make you
want to dance! You can visit Ashwin's web
site at www.sitarpower.com and review a huge
collection of old articles, pics etc
Ashwin Batish is an extraordinary sitarist
and tabla player. He received training in the
North Indian classical tradition from his
father S.D. Batish and later created his own
unique fusion of Indian classical sitar with
pop, rock, jazz, calypso, funk... an example
of a few hybrids he excels at. He is famous
for such songs as the Bombay Boogie, Raga
Rock, Raga Jazz, Casbah Shuffle and Sitar
Mania.
Ashwin is also very well know for being an
educator. His series of instructional videos
for the sitar, tabla, dilruba, dholak,
vichitra veena, harmonium and tanpura that he
has produced with his father Pandit Shiv
Dayal Batish have become a very sought after
commodity by the Indian music student. Ashwin
gives private and group Indian music lessons
at his Santa Cruz, California USA facility
and is often called upon by various music
festivals and universities to perform his
sitar and be a guest lecturer for weekend
workshops and seminars on Classical Indian
music, raga jazz, ethnopop, and raga rock
sitar fusion styles.
Ashwin Batish's pioneering effort in
worldbeat music called "Sitar Power" has
earned him some critical reviews and great
respect in the music community. The sitar is
ageless in Ashwin's hands. It is souped up
for amplification and effects! We hope you
get to catch one of Ashwin's electric
performances. His music is as dynamic as his
stage presence. Visit his web site at
ashwinbatishdotcom and check out media
reviews and sound clips.
