hello guys,
Any body has idea on what is been played on tabla or dhol in gujarati folk music (garba-ras dandiya) in very fast tempo.

Also waht they play on tabla for bhawai (street drama).

---

I dont about bhawai but for garba taal isnt it just double dadra:

Dhin Dhin Na/ Dhin Tin Na

or

Dhin Dhin Na/ Gin Dhin Na

The latter is what i prefer to play

In the very fast beats in gujarati folk music (dandiya raas), they use

ta ke te, tak, ta ke te @2 times
dha ge te, dhage, dha ge te @2 times
as a pick up piece.

Some times in very fast beats it sounds like (I am still not sure,but this is what I am trying to play.This sounds terrific on dhol but not that good on tabla) dadra variation:

dhage dhina gena
tak tinna kena or

dha-, dhina, gena
ta- , tinna, kena For faster speed.

Please let me know if any body has any idea about what to play,e.g for song
Dholi taro dhol vage. . .dhum dhum vage dhol.
