12 Days of Music pt.6 - Best World Music of the Decade

Amadou & Mariam - Sabali
World music gets a bad rap, because it often dabbles in the realm of, um, mediocrity. This song, on the other hand, represents everything awesome about the globalization of music.



Rodrigo y Gabriela - Tamacun



John McDowell - Gopala Over Credits
Is it considered world music when a white composer creates a brilliantly laid-back Indian sound for an American documentary about India?



Shugo Tokumaru - Button
I heart the Japanese.



Konono No. 1 - Paradiso
