Hey all,
I've found myself steering away from as much goblet drumming (doumbek mostly) and toward frame drumming ... almost exclusively. But my library and collection of resources is still limited. So I thought we could share some leads.
My own insterests are pretty much all asian/middle eastern, and not so much the latin or european, so thats what I'm personally looking for, but to keep the interest wide, feel free to add players from those regions as well.
I'm thinking links to specific players websites, so we can learn from them and get some album/video ideas as well.
Here are some I have:
Ganesh Anandan - an Indian player who has actually taken techniques from other drums like tabla, and transferred them to frame drums
Ganesh Kumar - another Indian player, but exclusively kanjira. Helped develop the Cooperman kanjira
N. Scott Robinson - very much a multi-percussionist, but covers more frame drums than most
you?
