The Brown Indian Band releases 'Fusion Lounge' The Brown Indian Band formed by bassplayer Colin D'Cruz features accomplished Indian classical musicians in concert with jazz musicians. Indian classical music can be compared to jazz as both are forms of improvised music. Indian classical music is linear and uses just one scale (raga) to improvise within a composition whereas jazz has a much broader palette for improvisation where multiple scales can be used to improvise through harmonic changes (chords). Indian classical music however, has some of the world's most complex rhythm structures and subtle quarter tones that add an exciting new dimension to forms of improvisation to create a very funky sound of world music. The band's debut album titled 'Fusion Lounge' features Dhiraj Kapadia-bansuri, Shadaab Hussain-percussion, Clifton Rodricks-keyboards and Colin D'Cruz-fretless bass. The CD priced at Rs.199/- is available in Goa at Vibes music Margao and can also be purchased worldwide under independent artists at www.musicyogi.com
