Shpongle Remixed
Shpongle is an influential electronic music project the core figures of which are Simon Posford and Raja Ram. They combine Simon's digital mastery of sonic manipulation with Raja's flute leads and world music elements (Moroccan drums, acoustic guitars). Their first album "Are You Shpongled?" was released in 1998, the second "Tales of the Inexpressible" in 2001, and the third and most likely the last - "Nothing Lasts" in 2005.
