It was the KLF that put Australia's Martin Kennedy on the path to founding All India Radio in 1999. After hearing their ambient classic, 1988's Chill Out, he was looking around for inspiration, and found it in a friend's recording of Indian street sounds. Moved by the noise and clamor, he fused it with ambient loops and soundscapes and began his production career as All India Radio. Deliberately lo-fi, his music is mostly instrumental and entirely downtempo, blending melodies, street sounds and cinematic atmospherics to create both an homage to the KLF masterpiece and a whole new musical. It is fitting that he would go on to work on a collaborative album with the Triffids' Graham Lee, since it was he who provided similar slide guitar work for Chill Out. Along with his All India Radio release schedule, Kennedy also writes music for TV, including the series One Tree Hill and Reality Bites.

She doesn't have a voice on the order of her hero, Celia Cruz, but India's passionate, emotive delivery has secured her a place in the salsa pantheon. She's toured and recorded with Eddie Palmieri, flirted with pop and even sung jazz standards on a 1996 release.

If you're looking for the long, slow elaborations on a theme that marks Indian classical music and you want to hear one of India's most noted classical singers of the 20th century, look no further than here. Gurtu simply owns this album, start to finish, her voice threading through the classical instrumentation without ever dominating or being dominated by the material.

This album pulses with restrained energy. Though produced by George Harrison, Chants of India is not his show, nor is it Ravi Shankar's: the focus is entirely on Hindu religious chants, and no ego or technique gets in the way of their delivery. The result is captivating, rewarding and even calming. Well worth repeated listens.
