Trilok Gurtu represents the modern evolution of Indian percussion traditions translated into contemporary jazz language. God Is A Drummer, released in 2020 on the German label Jazzline, finds him at the height of his powers, playing with absolute precision and musicality. His tabla work and compositions drive these pieces forward with genuine invention, creating rhythmic frameworks that feel both rooted in tradition and completely fresh. The sound is clear and detailed, perfect for CD format. Gurtu remains one of the few musicians who genuinely bridges Indian classical music and jazz without forcing the connection. This album is essential for anyone interested in where modern jazz percussion is heading.
