About Myself

I have been around in virtual worlds since 2008 - been part of all kinds of projects, educational/art related and others. I find this way of connecting and sharing very versatile and lots fun.

Music I Like

I explore music from around the world with a special focus on Africa & India. I love to learn about new instruments, new styles of music. I prefer folk music that has deep roots in a culture.

Some favorites include Johnny Clegg, Tinariwen, Freshlyground, Richard Bona, Kate Rusby, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Black Coffee, Samthing Soweto, Vieux Farka Toure, Moses Taiwa Molelekwa, Zakir Hussain, Moshang and much much more.

Visit Sumanta's island to see some his beautiful photos taken in India. While there, turn on stream to hear a fun selection of Indian tunes.

Next to his island, you will find Shenn's photo island with more wonderful images telling stories of Indian life. On Shenn's island - you will see a big TP gate to his magical sim called Tonglen. I highly recommend visiting it, Shenn is a master builder with many years of experience in creating artful spaces.
New location on the Africa sim - the Amapiano Lounge. Remember to turn on stream to hear some amapiano.

What is amapiano?
It is South African music genre taken from the Zulu word for "pianos"and is a hybrid of deep house, gqom, jazz, soul and lounge music characterized by synths and wide, percussive basslines.

Sample the music here : http://eu.ishout.net:8239

Visit the lounge anytime and chill/jive to some amapiano tunes ( or check out all the other fun locations on the sim :)

A big thank you to all that came to the safari event today - lots of fun chats and excellent moves too :)
