Indian traditional melodic instruments
"Whether you’re seeking a touch of genuine Indian influence to add melodic spice to a pop or dance track, or want to create a full-blown Bollywood arrangement, this a very good place to start." - Sound on Sound
"A beautifully produced, authentic collection of melodic Indian loops." - Music Tech
"For those of you dabbling in the soundtracking end of the spectrum, I would say this is a must have for all those dancing in the streets scenes." – Future Music
"I use both the Bollywood Grooves and the Bollywood Elements apple loops as part of my musical palette. For someone with knowledge of Indian rhythms and music, it proves as a great tool to expand musical ideas and sounds. It is also a great tool for those with little experience using Indian music in a modern compost...ional context. I recommend both these DVD´s to anyone who is looking to enhance their sounds and sample library. " - Karsh Kale, producer.
