Thanks for sharing this! Malabar’s “Postcards from Paradise” is tight. I’ll look out for your streaming versions at the Hiphopistan site.

Peace.

Thanks for turning me on to Che Malabar. Postcards from Paradise is awesome… I can’t decide if I like the Himalayan Project version better. They are both very haunting and beautiful. In my South Asia history class we are reading Rohinton Mistry’s “A Fine Balance”. This song is almost a perfect soundtrack for the section I am reading right now about the slum community. I am definitely going to share this with my fellow classmates.

and a lotus floats hope in a stream of the ganges…”

I couldn’t help but notice that you didn’t mention Abstract Vision - my cousin.
