STAFF PICK: Guadi & Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Dub Qawwali:Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was the master of Qawwali chant, a Middle East holy chant. He passed away a few years ago, and these are old, traditional chants that were turned into a dub groove, with a lot of bass and fusion. This album is very hypnotic and trance-like. He has an amazing vocal range.” –Jim Otto.
