about

The Dhool, a folk drum from Assam, Northeast India is the central character of this compilation. In the folk tradition of Assam, the Dhool is seen as feminine because of their hollow bodies (symbolic of the womb) and soft skins, and when the rigid sticks produce sounds by striking, rubbing, or plucking the stretched membranes it is considered as an act of making love.....

All proceeds from sales will go to the Lynti Khasi School of Umsawwar – a small remote village of farmers & shepherds located in Meghalaya, Northeast India- to help better its infrastructure and much more including funding the higher studies of the pass-outs of Lynti Khasi School. The Lynti Khasi School, with its bare basic facilities, is trying really hard not only to educate the children of Umsawwar but to also strike a balance between education & the centuries-old traditional livelihood of the community where the children help their parents in the daily chores of rearing and farming.
