RE: Terje Rypdal
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.
