These videos, via Pallav Pandya, capture a pair of improvisations that demonstrate his approach to Indian pitch inflection on keyboards.

It’s great to see some posts that highlight the intersection of Hindustani-influenced music with electronic instrumentation.
The second piece is one of the best examples I’ve seen of how the Continuum can really add something meaningful to the synth/controller landscape. Nice work!
Thanks a lot.
Excellent…
I’d like to see this done on a Linnstrument!
Yes! It is really nice to hear this kind of music captured with skill on modern instruments.
I still prefer hearing it on acoustic instruments, only because it reveals those “long-earned” skills that people get with decades of training.
BTW, here’s a pretty cool Animoog raga….
