Smekermann: Take a look at the pattern of what I have been listening and you will realize if I am just a Sharma fan or more. You can't fault me for worshipping Sharma - his music is life-giving. At the same time, I also admire the music of other great ones like Ravi Shankar, Nikhil Banerjee, Hariprasad Chaurasia, Bhimsen Joshi, Jasraj etc. Santoor is surely addictive. Again, I don't agree that the Elements series is cheesy - it is just an experiment outside the pure classical arena. Even there, many of the tracks are based on ragas.

the thing is that there's a huge difference between listening to shitty new age albums with indian instruments and listening to proper IC music. IC is pretty much all improvised and the interplay between the instruments (well, the main instrument and the percussion accompaniment, generally) is pretty amazing, especially when dealing with masters of their craft (ie. sharma, zakir hussain). Elements and other albums of its ilk, on the other hand, have absolutely none of the depth and are basically dumbed-down albums to appeal to yoga housewives and dumb stoners who think it's cool to hear some sitar twanging while they get high.

yep, agreed about "elements" - too much cheesy arrangements (keyboards and similar new age stuff) which change the music very much but, otherwise, this album is easy listenable for many, so, it may attract some people to his pure santoor music

If you want to attain "nirvana" (liberation, higher bliss) through music, try Shivkumar Sharma's music. He has had more than 100 albums to his credit and not one of them is bad. Perfect balance of melody and rhythm, technically and aesthetically superior. Try his "A Concerto in Raga Yaman" which is available on iTunes -- an incredible live concert recording made in 1988, with Zakir Hussain on tabla.

It's weird that people make comments about some music without even listening to it :-)

"Elements: Water" and "Music of the Mountains" are embarrassing? Just see how many of the top tracks for this artist are from those albums! Mountain Love Song, Himalayan Dawn, Springtime, Evening Prayer, Spirit of Kashmir, Walking in the Rain, Twilight Shadows, Echoes From The Valley, Ballad, Sunrise on the Peaks, Dewdrops, Shikara By Moonlight -- all these in top 20! I am sure these albums will pull a lot many listeners into the heavenly realms of Indian classical music!

Smekermann seems to have a bad music taste. The Elements and Music of the Mountains are great albums where Shivkumar Sharma fits Indian classical music into a thematic framework with stunning results. Cheesy and Shitty are not the terms befitting a legendary musician like Shivkumar Sharma or Zakir Hussain. Smekermann, grow up!
