Hi people

greenspun.com : LUSENET : carnatic.com : One Thread

hi all True story Just before flying into USA i was listening to Metallica, Floyd, Direstraits. Joe satriani, Liquid Tension experiment and all that. My family was into total carnatic music and u know i hated it. It was boring to me at that time. Many musicians have stayed in our house and i used to yell at my parents not to bring any musicians home during my exams :)( But i enjoyed my mothers cooking when they came :)) u can imagine my parents were soo much into it. My dad used to say 'dei onaku sangeetham varadhu' After a month i was missing home and INDIA. Thats when my friend gave me a CD of Dr.Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer and said 'dei Idha kaetu paaru' and i was like noooo pleasee. I said ok and then played it. The first song happend to be Marubalka in Sri ranjini ragam accompanied by Lalgudi Jayaraman and Umayalupuram maama. Trust me guys I was in heaven. Thatz when i stared collecting carnatic music. Oops! soory people to bug u all . I was looking for some ragam and i landed in here. Anyone interested in sharing music please feel free to write to me. I live in Detroit MI USA. Mostly i have Dr.SSI, MMI, Dr.Balamurali and loads of music.

Cheers Raghu

Hello , I'm Anil Prabhu & i own a company entitled "Dancing Dolphin" based in Central New Jersey that's in the business of distributing music for the N.American territory. I've been in the music industry for approximately 13 years in Bombay & have been in New Jersey since the last year & a half. Dancing Dolphin has exclusive contracts with approximately 20 Indian music cos prominent amongst which are reputable Indian cos such as BMG/Inreco/Geethanjali/Lahari/Sagar Sangeeth/Aditya etc & until now was only servicing wholesellers but am in the process of developing my website www.dancingdolphinmusic.com & have started servicing direct enquiries as i find that there is a genuine lack of maturity to the retail environment as regards Indian music. From the cos that i represent,quite a few are from the South & hence have an array of carnatic/devotional/sanskrit shlokas etc. I have noticed from this forum that there are quite a few queries pertaining to the non availability of carnatic titles & am willing to give it a shot in trying to obtain the same for them. Kindly revert with enquiries at aprabhu@hotmail.com my tel # is 732- 6989880. Warm regards, Anil Prabhu.
