DJ Ravi Drums, the music director of “Howie Do It” will reportedly be taking his act at the 2009 Academy Awards slated on Sunday at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood.

Drums, who holds the distinction of being the first and only Indian American music director of a network TV show, will perform in the musical segment of the show, which will feature Best Original Song Nominees “Down to Earth” (Wall-E), “Jai Ho” (Slumdog Millionaire), and “O Saya” (Slumdog Millionaire). An elated Drums stated, “This is an incredible pop culture moment to be an Indian American. To be performing on the Oscars when a top contender has an Indian storyline makes me very proud.”

Ravi is the most unique of all the MD’s out there. He originates a hip, epic musical movement, having invented the simultaneous process of live drum playing and live re-mixing.
