  • They Say...

    Al Gromer Khan (aka Aloysius Gromer) earned the right to use the name "Khan" by demonstrating master proficiency on the sitar. Tantra Drums is a set of ethnic electro-tribal ambience based on the ritualism of an ancient Shakti cult. Tantra contains dark and exotic rituals and deep spirituality. Modern culture has bastardized the term, so Khan has composed, arranged, and performed these soundscapes in modern poetic parlance in order to preserve both the erotic and spiritual meanings. The music is deep and hot. Khan's atmospheres surround the rhythms; his sitar compliments the atmospheres. The ethnic overtones complete his soundworld. Deep listening is a must for this lush and full soundscape. The CD will appeal to fans of Mo Boma, David Parsons, and Omar Faruk Tekbilek. Fans of Middle Eastern and Far Eastern ambient fusion will find this important. Casual fans will find it interesting.
