Have you ever heard dholak?
I think everyone should hear dholak. There's no instrument and beat more invigorating and powerful than dholak

DAY 5624
Jalsa, Mumbai              July 11/12,  2023               Tue/wed 4:09 AM     
🪔 .. July 12 .. birthday greetings to Ef Vijay Joglekar from Dombivali .. Ef M. Zaheer Sattar from Malawi 🇲🇼 .. Ef Dr. Pravin P Patel from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦 .. love and prayers for wellbeing from the Ef Family .. 🙏🏻🚩
‘ Sympathy ...you can get it from anybody ...but 'jealousy'...Boss u have to earn it.” ~
great words gifted from Ef Barun .. and how apt they are .. earn it boss, earn it .. jealousy you must earn .. and each day we are earning .. 
music is the food of late night creations .. impromptu, irrelevant but so apt .. much like the genius of many that never realised what they were designing .. and there are examples of such in the annals of music history .. a great composer I know designed a symphony on paper .. never played what he had written .. never heard it .. but it was sent to a philharmonic orchestra overseas .. to London .. and on the day of its recital, in an event he was invited and he heard the symphony being played for the first time .. 
he wept like a child, to the brilliance of his own creation .. never heard before , never ever played it .. yet ..
Brilliance ...
this brilliance infests itself into us at times and the immediate or instinctive music that gushes out is the result of just being together to appreciate each others cooperative effort .. and at times the comedic impact of the creation ..
Tumblr media
.... and it plays for me as I write  .. so much hilarity and laughter .. only to be shared by them that accompany me .. NEVER to go out .. never .. for they will never understand the reason and the cause and the immediate, informal, on the spot creation without knowing what is going to come out .. and then the surprise of its making .. the collective effort and the immense reference to situations .. 
Tumblr media
वो ढोलक का ठेका जब बजता है तो बता नहीं सकते हम की क्या होता है  , बस सब माल निकल आता है  
the tall of the dholak is the inspiration behind the music that emanates willfully and in the unown  ....
it now approaches almost 5 am .. and the desire to carry on is supreme .. I have yet to sleep, but who the hell cares .. Ef is more important  .. so ..
there is envy .. and jealousy .. to not have what they have .. they lead a pleasured life .. and my life suffers .. the alternatives have ever been the reason .. they can do, I can’t .. so I need to be in an alternative .. 
and music brings that alternative from them  .. they shall give me the strength of belief with guidance and quality .. and that is what I do not have .. so I shall soon find one and perhaps then .. the envy shall be crushed by the learning of the alternative shall survive and breed ..
Breed .. 
for we want the need to be through generations .. generations that shall look back to my LIFE .. and the envy of the household shall abate .. and the theka shall stop appropriately ..
 LIFE .. shall survive .. that particular LIFE shall .. survive .. and to hell with all the other baggage .. its weight is getting too heavy to carry .. 
time to bring the new instruments down to the recordings of LIFE .. and to learn lessons on fresh instruments .. to play .. 
Play baby play .. for they shall bring the joy of playing that instrument, live

from a (half) south asian american who's dark skinned, i think one of the best examples of south asian representation in video games as of recent is frye from splatoon 3.
i think they did so many things great with her. even though she's not really desi considering human culture has been extinct for over 1000 years in the splatoon universe, they did a great portrayal of her as a south asian. the inclusion of her dark skin really adds to that, because as someone who's half south indian, with dark skin, colorism and racism against dark skinned ppl in south asia is a really big issue, and is rooted in the caste system. and even though i doubt the inclusion of her dark skin was meant to break that stigma and stereotyping, it really adds to her regardless!
some other great examples of south asian influence in frye that makes her great rep:
- her singing in splatoon 3 is based on indian vocal music, especially carnatic (south indian) music. there's also traditional indian instruments such as sitar/veena, dholak, and nadaswaram used in songs where she performs. her dancing performance is also reminiscent of indian dances like bharatanatyam, odissi, and kuchipudi.
- her fighting style in her boss battle is based off of snake charming, using a pungi flute to control her moray eels to fight the player, in a manner similar to snake charming
- her outfit is based off of western-south asian or indo-western fashion and clothing, wearing a dupatta over what looks like a choli, and her pants resemble patiala pants. her headpiece also resembles mango chutney or another south asian condiment
- the locker decoration received from story mode that depicts her, sunken scroll 11, is based off of traditional indian art, especially from south india. the pose she strikes and the surrounding motifs are reminiscent of south indian and sri lankan sculpture and art depicting hindu figures; an example of a work of art similar to this depiction of frye is the bronze statue Shiva Natarāja, depicting the god shiva as nataraja, the cosmic lord of dance.
- and although i don't know for sure if her big forehead is based in south asian traditional beauty traditions, i still think it adds to her greatly as south asian representation. video game characters from any underrepresented culture are often depicted under western beauty standards, and frye's appearance that defies both western beauty standards AND colorist standards of south asian beauty truly makes her a great example of south asian rep in video games.
special thanks to twitter user rosierajin, who also compiled a list of examples of south asian influence in frye's character
anyways, that's my conclusion about why frye is an amazing example of south asian rep, hope you enjoy :3

Hariprasad Chaurasia, George Harrison, and Shivkumar Sharma, 1973; photographer unnamed, photo courtesy of hariprasadchaurasia dot com.
“George used to always say that if ever you are not feeling right, you should listen to Bob Dylan’s ‘Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie’ and [Hariprasad Chaurasia, Shivkumar Sharma and Brij Bhushan Kabra’s] ‘Call of the Valley.’” - Olivia Harrison, The Hollywood Reporter, October 22, 2011 “‘Bhoop Ghara’ from Call of the Valley, recorded in 1967 by Shivkumar Sharma, Hariprasad Chaurasia and slide guitar player Brijbhusan Kabra, was ‘something George had on our juke box. We played it as a remedy in our home if you were feeling a certain way. Kabra was one of George’s heroes as a slide guitarist, up there with Ry Cooder,’ [Olivia explains].” - Songlines, June 2018 “[Ry Cooder] inspires me to try and play that [slide] better. At the same time, I’m into this Indian music and there’s a guy called Brijbushan Kabra who plays a guitar but he plays it like a lap steel, he lays it on his leg, and plays it with the slide on top, like, and restrung it and plays sort of groovy Indian stuff on it.” - George Harrison, Rockline, February 10, 1988 “[Hariprasad] Chaurasia’s face lights up as The Beatles guitarist and songwriter George Harrison’s name is mentioned. ‘We were very close friends, or, at least, that is what I believe. He used to come to India every year, especially to go to Vrindavan. And, whenever he came, he would come to my Bandra residence at times, with his then-girlfriend, Olivia. Every time we met, we used to play music together,’ says Chaurasia. [...] ‘One of the best musicians I ever met, George loved Indian music and had a deep understanding of it. He made an attempt to learn the sitar, and though he played it for himself, he did not want to play it in front of an audience,’ says Chaurasia. When asked what Harrison was like as an individual, the maestro was quick with his response: ‘George was a great human being. He treated everyone equally, irrespective of his or her race or nationality. I remember George would always remove his shoes or chappals before entering anyone’s house,’ he says. Harrison loved everything Indian — culture, traditions and food. 'So much so that he that he wanted to be born in India in his next life. He used to go to the Lord Krishna temple at Mathura, with his face covered with a shawl to avoid recognition. He enjoyed going to the temple alone and collecting prasadam. He loved listening to the dholak and the singing and dancing. His favorite place in India was Vrindavan and said that he could never find such an environment anywhere else in the world,’ says Chaurasia.” - The Week, February 17, 2018 (x)

If all of the Reds and Blues and Freelancers played instruments, what do you think they'd all play? All I can think of is Doc/O'Malley on violin (probably gets really into it like Devil Went Down To Georgia), Sarge on trumpet (cuz bugles but can actually play it nice too), Florida on ukulele, and Maine and Locus taking up classic guitar and cello respectively for therapeutic reasons and ending up getting really into it.
Those all sound really good!
Hmm... it depends on what kind of music they're going for. I think in general, most of them haven't had the chance to really practice much music, but in season 15, we saw some of them formed a band! Carolina sings (so good), and it looked like Grif and Tucker were both on guitar, while Caboose did drums (if I remember right).
Sarge is certainly musically inclined, in regards to how much he likes to make up songs about killing stuff he doesn't like. I'm gonna say he knows how to play guitar, generally classic-rock/folk/country with what he does, but he surprises people by listening to wide range of musical genres (he's got a big collection that includes heavy metal and hip-hop). Oh, and he rocks on the harmonica!
Grif is good with guitar, and he'd probably be good on drums as well, but I'd like to think he secretly hides a gift with piano. Like, he can just naturally do really amazing/complicated pieces with ease (but when he was younger, little jerks he went to school with called that "sissy music", so he was awkward about sharing it with anybody). He's good with a uke too, and a very nice singer (again, if he's not feeling embarrassed)
Simmons WISHES he could play something like the violin or cello... but he just doesn't have rhythm, and gets too frustrated to practice properly. He doesn't have a bad voice, but he's a nervous mess if he tries to sing in front of people. He's able to get decent on the piano (with some help from Grif), and since he's a tech guy, he finds his own niche with electric keyboards (nothing too extravagant, but still very good)
Carolina is the one who had fancy music lessons when she was younger, but she's out of practice (she used to be good on clarinet and violin). She gets back into music and singing, picking up some guitar and piano... but surprises everybody by randomly deciding to get REALLY good at the harp (just to show off, haha)
Doc and O'Malley would certainly learn to play violin and fiddle, but I think they'd also practice different kinds of unique instruments; the kalimba, the tabla, the veena, the dholak, the balafon, and various types of flutes (they both also know how to make small little instruments with woodcraft; various things that Doc knows from his own traditions and heritage). They also are very good singers, Doc being especially into acapella/using voices to simulate instruments (though, O'Malley tends to ham it up for "villain" songs~)
Kai is more into mixing music, creating beats, maybe making something new with samples, and she is a killer DJ (dance music, electronica, techno remixes, and all similar variations. she's pretty good at changing up the "tone" of a song, but still keeping the melody strong)
Church is kinda-sorta good at a few things, but nothing he's invested in/practices often. However, he's pretty good at writing songs when he can focus on it (the Fragments all help, and they have a variety of musical genres they are into)
Tex is also OK with certain instruments, but not especially passionate to play anything often (she can sing though, but is the opposite of Carolina, who tends to lean toward more energetic songs. Tex will sing lower and slower)
Wash learned how to play the recorder in middle school. He can also play a kazoo, and can shake a tambourine on the beat. That's about it... with some help, he's OK on drums (he likes to back-up sing/harmonize with other people rather than sing solo)
Caboose is good on drums, he can put all his energy into making a strong rhythm! He's also good on various horns/brass and woodwinds, and really vibes with free-form jazz
Donut gets more caught-up with performing, he loves two come up with songs, sing and dance. He mostly likes pop-rock, but gets into other genres occasionally (he knows how to play the melodica very well). His big dream is to write a bunch of musicals~
Tucker is very good at different kinds of guitar, and he's a great singer as well (he didn't think he'd be into it, but just for practice, he tries out some classical/opera, and he's actually VERY impressive, he can project his voice very well and change the tone/pitch easily, and so he plays around merging old-school stuff with newer themes of music)
Locus hasn't had time for music in years... but he learned how to play different things as a kid; quena, siku, and some percussion instruments
Lopez can play basically anything he wants. People outside the loop will think it is just because he's a robot, and is therefore "copying" music that is already recorded... but Lopez will combine two completely different instruments and use them together in ways most people couldn't think of (he also leans toward very sappy loves songs, inspired by his adoration for Sheila~)
I don't have too many thoughts for the Freelancers... but if they could have had a different life path, York would probably have done well in a boy band, and South would have been a punk-rock star~

There are some aspects of a quiet village life you really can't ever describe well enough -
that feeling of swinging on the saawan ka jhoola that hangs on the sturdiest branch of that centuries old banyan tree
Evenings when the village ladies gather under the tree with a dholak and sing fagua or kajri or when that one pretty girl dances to a thumri and it feels like the time has slowed down
when you see actual peacocks dancing in the crop fields while the first rain of Monsoon hits the yield
when you tag along with your mum at 6 in the morning to the Shiv mandir in the middle of the village
and at night you snuggle up to your favourite aunt while she lists out folklores for you to choose as your bedtime tale for the night
And then your holidays are over just like that. You are physically back in the city but somewhere the kajri sung by your grandma still drags you back to the green fields where the peacocks danced

I’ve been binging a lot of Kishore Kumar songs/movies during the past days and . Wow. I did not know that it was possible to give expressions from mere voice until now. Apart from being what is probably the most melodious male singer I’ve ever heard, I can hear the Joy when he says Jhoom jhoom kauwa bhi dholak bajae, Fun in Ek Chatur Nar, Sadness in Koi humdum na rha, Love in Pal bhar ke liye koi hume pyaar kar de. Heck even the infatuation in his voice when he sings Ek ladki bheegi bhaagi si, as if this man does not completely need pace and composition and all to make his songs sound a certain way, and his own vocal abilities can enhance to the feel. He literally sang a song about 5 rupya 12 aana and somehow made it feel exactly like what something with that name should feel like, like how💀
I’ve heard many brilliant singers from Mukesh to Md. Rafi to even present day wonders like Sonu Nigam (who is also another man who seems to posses this ability) but I’ve never heard anyone else who made me feel like he was living the art as much as this man. This guy was so talented he could write scripts, act, and sing in his own movies and do all of that with perfection.
I have no idea why I wrote this here but I felt like I needed to let the world know that it is a big old crime to sleep on this man’s talents.
whenever we hear divinities like koi Iowa de mere beetey hue di, yeh dil na hota bechara, koi humdum na raha, mere sapno ke rani, yeh sham mastani, jindagi ka safar, tere mere milan ki rain, main shayar badnam etc. there are 2 stages
vibing with the song and its feeling.
wondering at how possibly could one single voice give you such multitude of emotions.
listen to any fm radio station and you are sure to hear one of the many memorable melodies of the kishore kumar-rd burman era.
and whenever we hear today's RJs and masses, it surprises us how just about everyone ends upon the legendary kishore da, as if he were a contemporary.
which he is and always will be.
relevance isn't a word in kishor da's dictionary, because he never loses it.
