John McLaughlin’s 2008 Abstract Logix CD Floating Point and its companion DVD Meeting Of The Minds featured some of India’s contemporary musician’s playing over Western music styles and forms (i.e. chord progressions). One of the standout performers on those sessions was drummer Ranjit Barot; who plays with a dynamically propulsive style that seamlessly emerges Eastern rhythms with jazz swing, R&B backbeats, fusion flash – and everything in between. I became an instant fan of his playing, and hoped to hear more of Ranjit’s music as a band leader. That hope is now a reality with the release of Ranjit Barot’s debut CD on Abstract Logix, Bada Boom.Track List
Bada Boom is not a typical “East meets West” project where the Eastern music component plays a minor or “decorative” role. As Ranjit says in his liner notes, the songs represent his journey toward finding a meeting place between musical cultures and are a “celebration of my Indian-ness.” That Indian-ness (in this case the stronger, more natural component of the music), balanced with practical knowledge of his Western influences, makes Bada Boom a unique and cohesive musical statement.
In addition to Ranjit Barot’s brilliant drumming, Bada Boom is also a showcase for his imaginative composing and arranging. The four Barot originals and two arrangements based on traditional themes have a sweeping, cinematic quality to them. This isn’t really a surprise since Ranjit has written numerous film scores. But to feel the grandness of a movie soundtrack in the context of this diverse collection of songs is very impressive. The sound and production of the CD is immaculate. Close your eyes while listening and your imagination will be inspired by the music and take you away.
