Drummer/Composer Ravish Momin and trombonist Rick Parker are Tarana. Their debut full-length release, after being together 12 years, is 'A Fire Of Flowers Grows Around Us' (Wondermachine Music). It combines electronica with Bollywood soundtracks, folk music from India, Arabic chants, 1980's synth-pop and low end bass 'n' drum trance.
