As a drummer and a meshuggah fan, this is FUCKING AMAZING. The rhythm understanding required to do this cleanly is EXPERT. Not to mention the tongue speed.
It’s not the whole time but yeah I noticed. To use western ideas, her left hand is a 7/8 pattern and her right hand is a 7/4 pattern, so after two of the left-hand patterns they sync up and it repeats. Which would take some practice to do BY ITSELF, let alone while doing the vocal pyrotechnics that, from what I can tell don’t follow any kind of 7-beat pattern and are just kind of their own thing.
For her its likely something that is a count of 14 or 16 or something that would make most western musicians go: are you kidding me? I've read there's even beats that go much higher. So, its counting 1 to 14, not 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 like we're used to. And, then the emphasized beats are not every third or 1st or something. It might be 1st 2 3 4 5th 6 7th 8 9 10 or something that's ..... well .... its a whole new vocabulary.
Check out Artificial Fear cover. Very underrated and much longer than AA. Although I appreciate what Andre has done for Indian and Pakistani ethnic rhythms, in thie case Artificial Fear is the OG!❤😂
Honestly I can't explain how this blows me away. The rhythm structure is far beyond what you usually hear in western styles, it's at God level, and I asume they are actually saying many things. The fact they're keeping 3 rhythms with their hands and singing that fast... Just leave me speechless every time. This is one of the most beautiful classical music I've ever heard
This is part of the classical music education in India. Many people think it's kind of ethnic, or exotic, or world music, but *for the Indians it's classical music :-)* It's very nice that the we have a classical music of India, that is very different from the classical music of Europe. It's a good example for how interesting our world can be, if we allow it to be interesting.
Chris Rafinski i may be confusing this with another type of indian classical music, but syllables they’re saying are like rhythmic solfège. where the syllables do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti represent the degrees of the ionian scale, the syllables they’re saying represent different rhythmic pieces of the beat they’re saying
Teddy Filkin mmhmmm. That i can understand. But doesn't the middle section sound like they're actually saying something? It doesn't sound like rhythmic syllables all the way through.
Chris Rafinski from 0.50 to 1.17 and 1.31 to 1.39 are short prayers from 2 different Indian languages. First one is paying respects to the ultimate Lord and second is for paying respects to the GURU or the master. Rest is all Konnokkol as you know. It’s amazing to see how they have put those hymns to rhythmic syllables.
For those that don't know what we are wowing about, those two just performed 9 evenly spaced beats in a 4-beat duration. A 4:9 polyrhythm, to be exact. Just think about how you would evenly space the beats. Difficult, right?
I am a drummer who plays many genres, but I was trained as a jazz drummer by a teacher who also is proficient in Tablaa and Konnakol. He transcribed the Konnakol to the modern drum set, which was very hard to learn initially for how different it was. He never taught me the Konnakol, which I now regret because to me, I imagined it to feel like becoming one with any rhythm.
The little song she sings and recites while she recites Konakkol is a prayer to Lord Shiva, one of the most incredible dieties in the Hindu pantheon of Gods. The prayer praises Shiva as the source of all - the mother and father of all, the source of all goodness and greatness and fount of all that is holy. "Om Tryambakam yajaamahe sugandhim pushtivardhanam / Urvaarukamiva bandhanaan mrutyormuksiyamaa mrutaat".
What I love SOO much about this music is that there are huge parallels with stuff like, technical "math rock" progressive metal, or even electronic music artists like Squarepusher that we think of as being "new" music, but really there was the same level of rythmic innovation in musical forms dating back thousands of years. Surely indian classical music is the most innovative music in terms of rythm, it's world class

I've watched this countless times. I understand nothing that's happening, but i feel like it doesn't matter what I know. It's just impressive and feels like it could open a spellbound door somewhere.
You haven’t seen very good beatboxing if you think that’s true haha. What they’re doing is hard because of the speed and rolling of the r’s although I suspect people who speak languages with rolled r’s would have an easier time than us. The sounds themselves aren’t hard are Beatboxers are making two or three sounds all at once and they’re usually sounds that most people could make one at a time.
@ Shabazz It is not just the words, but the entire mathematical structure of the art form called Konnakol. According to many experienced people, knowledge of Konnakol even supports the playing of musical instruments like a guitar. Also, just so you know, as per even the most conservative accounts, Konnakol is atleast 2000 years old.
@@DipayanPyne94 Why does its age matter? It seems to me that this person is talking about the difficulty level. If they were being literal about the mathematical aspect of it it wouldn’t make since to exaggerate it and say it uses quantum physics.
@@ShabazzTBL I didn't write my previous comment to you keeping the original comment in mind. The original comment is ill-informed, to be very frank. Calling Beatboxing Kindergarten stuff is ridiculous. I just wrote my comment to let you know that Konnakol is not hard just because of the reason that you gave (although I know that u didn't say that that is the only reason). Rolling of R's is completely irrelevant here. If an American learns Konnakol and doesn't get the pronunciation right because of his/her accent, fine. It would sound a bit wrong, but the pronunciation is not really that important. It's the entire theoretical framework of Konnakol (which happens to be atleast 2000 years old) that matters. Konnakol is a part of South Indian Classical Music. Classical Music, from any part of the world, is of primary significance, because it's often very vast and teaches people the basics in a very systematic fashion. By that, I don't mean that Beatboxing is not systematic, lol, but you get my point. Learning Konnakol greatly improves the knowledge of rhythms, in general, and even assists melodic instrumentalists in many ways. Even John McLaughlin, who has teamed up with many Indian Classical Musicians till date, would say that. It's a long story.
This is improv. But since there's always a mathematical calculation they naturally come to one end phrase which is called mukthayi because that's the only way it's going to be divisible with the number they've chosen for the whole improv.
@SinisterMinister there can be several mukthayis for different cycles. But by the flow of it they naturally come to an understanding which mukthayi it is. Mukthayis are also made up. This is all a mathematical calculation but after years of practice I feel they go by instinct than logic and still these great artists end up accurate.
I was in a drum line high school and this sounds similar to what we would say to each other to describe the drumming phrases when we didn't have our drums. This was a lot cooler, though.
@MrMozoak you are right. It is called Konnakkol in this style of music for the percussion instrument Mridangam. In the Hindustani (North Indian) classical music, it is for Tabla or Pakkawaj instruments.

At the risk of sounding stupid, is what they are doing is playing drums but with their mouths and hands only? I've never heard of konnakol until 10min ago but think it's absolutely amazing
this is perhaps the only video in the world, which, every time i happen to open it for some reason i can't stop watching it. absolutely bloody marvelous.

She's keeping the 7 beat talam (not sure what that's called in Carnatic music) with her left hand. Then at 0:50 she starts keeping the talam with her right hand as well and it looks like 7 beats but half the speed of her left hand. So she's keeping two talams and reciting at the same time.

The thalam in her left hand is Mishra Chaapu (thakadhimi thakita or 4+3). She starts the trishra jaathi triputa thalam with her right hand at that point which is also 7 beats but 7 distinct beats (counting fingers or "laghu" for 3 beats and tapping the palm or 2 "dhruthas" for the next 4 beats)

அருமை அருமை மிக அருமை. பிரமிப்பு. நாவில் நாட்டியம் ஆடும் குழந்தைகளே நீங்கள் நீடுழி வாழ்க! திருமுறையின் இனிமையை அனைத்து குழந்தைகளுக்கும் உணர்த்துமாறு தங்களின் பாகம் பணிந்து வணங்கி கேட்டுக் கொள்கிறேன். நன்றி வணக்கம் திருச்சிற்றம்பலம்.
This is amazing. They have no idea how metal they are lol those polyrhythms are awesome. I can’t wait to keep diving down the rabbit hole of this art form

Much love from France.
You both guys are amazing.
In love with this music
They're singing faster than most people can think. Amazing!
Dude those rhythms are absolutely insane
Ended up here after looking into the Virga Island music in Metaphor: ReFantazio. Really cool to see there's real world influence in its music.
Did anyone else press harder on the Like thumbs up to see if a heart would appear? Amazing!
This vocal percussion is on a whole another level
Once in a while i run into something amazing like this that makes me aware I'm merely an intermediate musician. This is some next level shit right here and it should be studied
The future of metal requires it
Record at The Bins with Mike Britt I’m a professional classical musician with a degree from a fancy Western conservatory. I’m in awe.
TOOL DID IT
Check out Mattias IA Eklundh
i'm sure these people are also awestruck by high level classical musicians from europe/america. this is their classical, after all.
Check out Carnatic metal
Im calling it... Cadets show next year
that would be awesome
THAT THEER MANNUM WAS CLLEEEAAANNN! VERY CLEAN!!!
Blue Devils this year

All the metalheads who found this through Andres Antunes, thank you for being appreciative of Indian konakkol music and our arts. These are some incredible heritages you will find only in India. They're as metal as you can get. Some of the skill levels of our artists are off the charts.
Andre getting me closer to my own roots, i love it! \m/
Lovely! 02:23 the syllables are so crisp at that speed. They are so good!
Amazing talents.. Especially that little girl with her diction and understanding of layam is spell bound.
Wow this is just insane, crazy how something that in India is normal music in this part of the world sounds more like alien type music, such a cool and crazy thing 🏆
For those wondering where the Tamil verses are from its from Thevaram(Thirunavukarasar) Thirumurai 6
அப்பன்நீ அம்மைநீ ஐய னும்நீ
அன்புடைய மாமனும் மாமி யும்நீ
ஒப்புடைய மாதரும் ஒண்பொரு ளும்நீ
ஒருகுலமும் சுற்றமும் ஓரூ ரும்நீ
துய்ப்பனவும் உய்ப்பனவுந் தோற்று வாய்நீ
துணையாயென் நெஞ்சந் துறப்பிப் பாய்நீ
இப்பொன்நீ இம்மணிநீ இம்முத் து(ம்)நீ
இறைவன்நீ ஏறூர்ந்த செல்வன் நீயே.

You are loving father,
mother and elder brother;
You are uncle as well as aunt;
You are well-endowed wife and righteous riches,
You are clan,
kin and peerless town;
You are objects of relish and carriers too;
As help,
You authored renunciation in my heart;
You are this gold,
this ruby and this pearl;
You are God;
You alone are the opulent One that rides the Bull.
Verse and Translation is copy pasted from website as mentioned but I would personally translate aiyan as Guru or preceptor. Oppudaiya mathar as 'all virtuous women' uyipana is renouncement...should admit the above translation is off on many levels.
That moment when the Metal and Carnatic communities come together
I've lost track of how many times I've watched this. It's just amazing, beautiful and impressive.
I have no idea how I got this in my feed, but I am so grateful that I did! Beautiful music!
This is therapeutic to my soul
One of the best konnakol i have ever listened to...let there be greatness in you all
I just had an out of body experience listening to this.
Totally love it. Admiration from Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.
божественно! чувствуется многолетняя работа, большое наследие человечеству, спасибо тебе Индия ! ❤️

Cardi neither has talent or vocals
Lol that was exactly what I was going to say cardi b reloaded 😂
Don't compare her with cardi b mate. Cardi b is shit.

Wonderful! Shivapriya god bless you!
These are the Human Sounds of the actual Musical Instruments
L'indipendenza tra voce e mani, la poliritmia, i tempi dispari, gli unisoni... è strabiliante la tecnica raggiunta in questo tipo di performance! 😲
yoooooo.... I'm here because of a class I'm taking!!! I'm glad I watched this!!!! Amazing!
oh god.... simply amazing, humans are amazing.
Why is there no "OMG!!!!" button? That was amazing!!!!!
Lol..👍
I'm holding my breath... this is insane!
Really glad I stumbled upon this video.
4:47 This song is more than amazing.
Watching and hearing this wondrous thing makes me think there just might be some hope for humanity after all.
should make a metal band with these guys
y not
It has begun
Andre Antunes did that
I'm so impressed, it's amazing the minds of these musicians acting in complete coordination and so beautiful in their talents. WOW!
0:50 "on me knee, oh my knee, I'm buddha, yo mom" ... I think I get it!
lmao...
Nope. Has a very philosophical context to it. If I am not wrong it talks about Rythm being a superior form of sorts.
hahahahahah you idiot xD
vignesh ganesh *whoosh* you hear that? that’s the sound of a joke being taken seriously
Hahahah, i Lol'd "I'm buddha, yo mom"
I'm here after Andre... This is how we're not recognising Indian music... But the foreigners praising it
Such a brilliantly wonderful people, culture and contribution to music.
I can only wish that I was a fraction of talented and skilled as these two inspiring souls.
Amazing counting, rhythm, pulse and synchronization. Have always been curious about this ancient indian art, and here I am watching and enjoying this amazing performance. Cheers from Quito - Ecuador.
2:23 is blowing my mind
Messhugah
Europe loves you :-) 4 us here in EU it's amazing to hear u both singing in that way...you are from India it's a country full of music and passion :-))) IN EU _ Rhythm is relative :-))) ... But today in the digtal century.... its SoooWonderful...PLEASE show us more :-) BIG HUG
Pepe de Alida Thank You
Absolutely agree
A big fan of Brazil's Indian traditional music.
Power of indian music. Pure mathematics in motion.
Along with vocal..Left hand right hand beat coordination..
Was amazing 💐💐💐👌👍
This is by far the best thing I've seen!
Every single video I have seen of MadRasana productions has been amazing. Very thankful for introducing me to music that makes me grateful to be alive!
Thank you so much for your kind words. We wre glad you are enjoying.
man that is some vocal percussion on a whole 'nother level
truly a golden experience
The most satisfying thing I have watched in a while.
