Surprise! Having my chosen brothers, the two and only @_jag2ray@jess2ray of “Dhol Tool” fame performing for my last LA show tonight at @plzrstudios !

Handstamp ticket link in bio. Putting all my heart and soul into this last one ❤️

We had this crazy idea to use a classical Indian jugalbandi in the middle of our house song. Does it work? Check out “Dhol Tool” featuring @rish.beats in our bio and let us know what you think in the comments 🪘

1 week of Dhol Tool and we’re already at 4500 streams and have got on some amazing playlists 🔥 For an independent release from new artists, this is pretty incredible. Thank you all for the support so far 🙏🏾
Swipe for some fun BTS from the making of this tune:
3 - @jess2ray playing the dholki part for the drop. We recorded the dhol and dholki at @the.cribbo during a writing camp hosted by @kmnimusic@hichamoaj@amongfriends.records
4 - @rish.beats laying down the tabla parts. We recorded his parts at Zoom studios in DTLA. I was sick as a dog that day (hence the mask), but we still ended up having an amazing session and getting the parts we needed
5 - Jess laying down scratch parts for the jugalbandi section in the middle. We were recording these at @_jag2ray house and didn’t have a mic stand, so we duct taped the mic to a lamp 😂 Rishi later re-recorded these parts on tabla for the final track
6 - Rishi jamming on the tabla
7 - Jess warming up on the dhol to Punjabi music

By unifying the heart-pounding drums from north of India (dhol and dholak) and Carnatic classical instruments and practices from the south (tabla and konnakol vocal rhythms), Narasimha and Jag & Jess celebrate the rich diversity of Indian culture through the universal language of house music.
