Band'its' > Mainak (1) > Mainak

Name: Mainak Sen (Checked his last name from yahoo too .. hehe)

Picture Clarifications: Thats mainak in the blue kurta almost squeezing out of the picture, while Alap hits away at notes on the acoustic guitar! (Sparsh, 2005)

Mainak, one of the original figures in the band, dominates Antardhwani's percussions. A gifted Tabla player, he has now transitioned to an electronic percussion instrument that can reproduce congo, drums, pretty much any percussion instrument, and his new toy has defined our new sound.

Mainak and I started off in the band playing music 20% of the time and cracking jokes at each other's expense the other 80% of the time to an extent that when we share a normal conversation band members wait with bated breath for the upcoming quarrel!

Inclined towards melodious instrumentals, mainak helps me tons in composing the more raag (Indian Classical) based compostions we are exploring. He also serves as the President of the ECEGSA (Electrical Engg Grad Student Ass. ) hehe ..
