		Talvin had his tabla placed on a waist-length contraption (which he could adjust for height) and he played standing up.
		Talvin played very little tabla in the first few pieces and even then it was frenzied beating designed to fascinate the audience with the movement of his hands rather than building up a rhythm and taking it to a climax, as one would in a classical tabla piece.
		The following solo pieces were amazing, with Talvin building up with slow, cyclic rhythms, increasing his pace gradually until you were spellbound by the speed with which his hands were moving.

		Singh has clearly found a voice here as a solo artist, after numerous sideman gigs (including one with Madonna) and production work with other artists in the U.K.'s Asian underground.

	Talvin Singh @ Union Chapel, London : gig review
		We flocked in our hundreds to see London-based Singh's second Untouched concert, at which we were to expect spiritual music in a definitively spiritual setting.
		A video documentary (that wouldn't have been out of place on BBC2) projected above the stage explained what Singh had been up to in India, and what he considered to be his education in the drumming culture of that country's southern regions.
		The video had been busy telling us that, as a drummer, Singh hadn't wanted to be obscured at the back of the stage while a band took the limelight, but when Ustaad Sultan Khan began to play sarang we saw that the focus of the event moved to him.

		talvin featured in a film released in the uk called G:MT Greenwich Mean Time with Hinda Hicks and others.
		I had a Tamil roommate who was always listening to Tamil movie music/pop, and I got into it but wanted something more like a cross between that and the kind of thing I like to listen to.
		I like Singh's "Jaan" on that disc, but her voice gets a little bit grating - I know it's not just the style, because I have plenty of Indian music like it, but it's her actual voice.

	Back To Mine: Talvin Singh
		Listening to Talvin's compilation really does sound like you've gone "back to his", as in his place, watching him excitedly pull out crates of ridiculously obscure LPs.
		We've known Talvin likes to support his fellow Indian musicians since he put out his own compilation, Anokha: Soundz of the Asian Underground, so the Eastern flavor of the album's no surprise.
		I was surprised, however, by the tempo of the compilation.
