BHANGRA HISTORY Bhangra, the most popular of the community dances from the villages of Punjab, India is closely linked with the ritual importance of the wheat harvest, known as Vaisakhi. It is traditionally during the wheat harvest that dancers gather around in an open field in answer to the beat of the drum, the Dhol. The music and beat of the drum are the life of Bhangra. While Bhangra has had a long history, the music and the rhythm of the dance have recently begun to influence popular music internationally, creating a 'modern Bhangra movement.' The Masala Bhangra WorkoutTM Volume 1...Basic style is set to a flavorful and irresistible original soundtrack that mixes samples of dhol beats, with flutes, tablas, chimtas and synthesized choral vocals to create a multicultural vibe unlike any other.
