Latest Music Obsession: Anoushka Shankar & Karsh Kale "Slither"
This is the first instrumental song I've featured here and comes from the fabulous 2007 collaboration between Anoushka Shankar and Karsh Kale that, to quote one reviewer, "blends Indian classical, electronica and folk" styles of music. I was introduced to the fabulous title track of "Breathing Underwater" at the time of the album's release, but finally discovered the entire album only last week. It's a real adventure for the ears and like nothing I've heard before, but the track above is the one that immediately infiltrated my mind and has refused to bulge ever since. Hope you guys enjoy this as much as I have! And it's not too late to enter my cake stand giveaway if you haven't already!
