I'm able to hear deeper levels to your playing now that I understand the hand in glove way of playing. The way you fill the space gives lift to the melody & music. You swell & break with the wave adding buoyancy & kinetic energy to the music. I love.

Questions with Bugalu:    I see by playing with constant motion you're able to build up a tremendous amount of kinetic energy. I see what you mean when you say playing from moment to moment. Motion is moment to moment even when you're not moving. You're the rhythm of life.

Bugalu's Answer:      Well Kesai when you play with the flow and ghost it has a light feeling but at the same time it’s very powerful and this is where the inner smile comes in when your playing the drums that great inner happiness.
