So Hard To Find Good Indian Music....


Recommended Posts

It always takes me song long to find some good indian lounge/chillout/trance/ambient/background music to set the mood right. So far the only one I like is Prem Joshua, if you've never heard of him i suggest you check him out. Any other little gems that people know of? costumed-smiley-091.gif

check out the putomayo collections, they collect the best songs from every culture and make ultimate mixed cds. they cover every cuklture. i would suggest World grove or Sahara lounge, they are both really good albumns (no, sahara lounge has nothing to do with us, its just the name of the cd)
i think their website is putomayo.com or you can search on google. you'll be amazed at how good the cds are

Its not from an indian band...but, The song Aqueaus Transmisition by Incubus is the most tranquil song in the world. And the only instrument in it is sitar. Im sure its not actually sitar but a guitar played to sound like one, but its still really chill and very indian.

I have a collection of over 600 songs, (4000 in the ipod but 600 specifically desi ones)
I can hit you up, but until then, if youre looking for upbeat, go bhangra, also movie music is good.
if youre looking a bit slower, there are slow versions.

I have this 4-cd collection of music from around the world called Global Meditations and I just absolutely love smoking with these songs. It's kind of old and hard to find. I guess I could upload it somewhere if anyone was interested but we might have to do it outside of the forums, wouldn't want to bring any trouble to the forums. I'm not so sure it's ok to post this post. I'm kind of the type of person who believes that all information should be free.

Anyways the collection has like whirling dervish music and shamanic drumming, Japanese Shakuhachi, traditional Hawaiian music and just anything you can think of, it's amazing stuff and so extremely chill.
