An incredible artist that transcends musical boundaries. He has created some of the finest downtempo electronic dance music of the past 5 years. He utilises a bewildering array of influences from across the globe, notably India where his roots are but also Blues, Soul, Brazilian, Latin, Middle Eastern, Arabic, Hip Hop, Deep House, Balearic... Yet his albums & collection of songs gel together so perfectly. He's also a true political & social commentator for the 'No Logo/Make Poverty History' generation and this is always echoed poignantly through his music. His last three albums are fantastic from start to finish and really showcase one of the most talented musicians/composers in Britain today (he's also superb live).
