Japan's beatboxing monk

Ta2mi is a Buddhist monk by day, but he has another life as a DJ and beatboxer. He tells Global Beats how his music is inspired by Buddhist chants, and how his fellow monks have now accepted his double life. Ta2mi鈥檚 album Travel Through Worlds exhibits his skill as a producer, its varied and atmospheric tracks combining electronic sounds and recordings from nature.
