Back in action!!

Yeah! Yeah! I know... I started the blog with a blast and escaped in the smoke ;)

These few months of inactivity in the blog was the result of a number of shows I participated in, here in the Bay Area. I thought it's time to put a temp stop to these and starting blogging!

సరే, మళ్ళీ కలుద్దాం!

Vandemataram from Kaalapani

Maestro Ilaiyaraja's rendition of Vandemataram from the movie 'Kaalapani'. I played this on Sitar using Pro Tools XPand! tool


You can find the original tune at this link.

Look for the last song "Vandemataram" in the above link

"Welcome!", says Bassix

Dear Friends,

Welcome to my blog!

The name "Offbeat" doesn't seem to be offbeat. But "Bassix Offbeat" surely is. Having inspired by songs that carry offbeat rhythms, I chose to name my blog with the same name.

I hope to present songs from Telugu and Tamil Music, which I know, with my perspective of each song. I plan to present bits and pieces of the song (either from the original or played by me) and discuss the intricacies of the song as I see them.

By all means, I am not an expert and I truly welcome suggestions and comments to my posts.

Cheers and keep rocking,

Bassix
