Karsh Kale has the unique ability of fusing electronic drum and bass parts with Indian melodies and rhythms in such a way that the songs retain their sweetness without sounding like a mad scientist's laboratory. This can partly be attributed to his own background in Indian classical music (he plays the tabla, among other things). The album is really well-balanced, with both racy as well as slow n' easy tracks.
Personal picks : The album-opener "Empty Hands", "Satellite" (which sounds like the title sequence to some Lonely Planet type of travel show) and "Conception".
