Full review to follow. Closing out this year's X Avant Festival was a cross-cultural mix of new sounds and new technologies. Gurpreet Chana's new-fangled TABLIX system is a tabla-controlled MIDI interface, employing the rhythm and melodies of tabla without its natural acoustic sound. That opened up a lot of terrain to explore some new grooves from an ancient instrument.
