Introducing Indigisounds IndoCaribbean Samples, a comprehensive sample library that showcases the two prominent musical sub-genres that emerged from the East Indian immigrant presence in the Caribbean. This collection features the traditional sounds of Chutney music, which evolved from Bhojpuri folk music and employs instruments such as harmonium, dhantal, and dholak. These elements have formed the original and authentic expression of the Indian diaspora in the Caribbean. The library also includes the upbeat and celebratory rhythms of Tassa drums, which originated from the North and Central Plains of India and use instruments like Dhol, kutter drum, and Jhanj cymbal. The Tassa drum is a staple at traditional Indian weddings and festivities in the twin-island Republic and can be seamlessly adapted into any audio production to add its infectious and rhythmic effect to any percussive ensembles and ideas. Let Indigisounds IndoCaribbean Samples bring the essence of these unique and exciting musical sub-genres to your productions.
