While visiting India, I traveled between Delhi and Agra and shot several photos and video footage, much of it from the train and the back of a taxi. Everywhere, people zoomed along on motorbikes and bicycles. This inspired me to write and record this piece of music to serve as the soundtrack for the images.

I improvised a string melody I thought would compliment both a sitar and gamelan, as well as Indian drumming. I enjoy the fusion of Indian and Indonesian instruments together and this piece captured it perfectly.
