A serious musician, and I'm making a serious face as I type this...

Obama like a mofo, yo! You know, Barry is so cool that I bet he owns this album...



British/Indian producer/composer Nitin Sawhney is not just your average knob-twiddler. Nope, he's one of those serious music dudes. You know the type... the guys who in addition to putting out records and DJ mixes and whatnot also compose for the symphony and films and receive honorary degrees and props from Paul McCartney and get booked on chat shows to talk about important cultural shit. His records span all sorts of musical genres, from Drum 'n' Bass to Neo Soul that wouldn't sound out of place on an Erykah Badu album to more straight-up World music, like this one here...

... and bro's got 7 records out there for you to pick up, so you can just put off paying that cable bill for a while there, Sparky. TV makes you dumb anyway...
