Electronic bhangra

I think I already recommeded Salon's Audiophile column, where they have one new music download everyday. The selection is informed, eclectic, always interesting and occasionally a real find.

Here's something I liked: a punj club music thing. It grows on you the more you listen. This is the URL for the dwnload page:
http://www.salon.com/ent/audiofile/2006/08/02/bikram/

, but you'll first have to see an ad. You can go to www.salon.com, see the ad and then paste the URL in.

Here's the writeup on the piece from that page:

Daily Download: "Kawan" (drum 'n' bass remix), Bikram Singh
New York-based Bikram Singh is a rising dance music star originally from Punjab,
India, known for mixing Punjabi folk melodies and vocal styles with bhangra and
electronica. This track is a duet between him and Gunjan, remixed with a stuttering
drum 'n' bass beat by Scottish bhangra producers Tigerstyle.
