I have been slowly working through my Netflix queue for the past few months.

1. Dirty Pretty Things: Oh what a movie! An absolute pleasure to watch. Chiwetel Ejiofor is perfect for the role of Okwe, an illegal immigrant. Audrey Tautou is the silent, control freak types. Trying to balance a quiet life with a desperate past. The camera angles are not “tight” but the screenplay generates sufficient interest. A MUST watch. If you liked Crash, you will like this one too!
My band played at the MIT C-show on Saturday.
Here is an iPod recording of the piece (Right click and save). This is an original composition based on 3 raagas:
1. Bhimpalasi : The Piano + Flute Piece
2. Kafi : Vocals following the Flute piece
3. Jhinjhoti : The Vocals and Violin piece at the end
Hope you like it!
