Cool.  Send links whenever you can, please.  I want to explore this stuff
too.

I pretty much buy any Indian classical or devotional vinyl I can lay my
mitts on (which isn't much, around here).  I'm not partial to any artists
in particular, although I do prefer evening and night-time ragas, since
they tend to be more mellow.  I don't know much about Indian music, other
than that I like it.

They used to have a great weekly show on the local Cal Poly radio station
on Sunday nights, and that's where I first discovered Indian classical
music.  In retrospect, it seems odd that I never remember hearing it while
I lived in Saudi Arabia, given the large population of expatriate Indians
there.

I just recently finished an album of a friend's family performing Sikh
spirituals - that's some cool stuff.  I'd love to remix it, but his father
says he'll have to kill me if I do.  This friend has introduced me to some
nice Indian-flavored electronic dance music by Talvin Singh and Karsh 
Kalai.
