{#Wall}

I will make this simple;

1. The lyrics "God in one" does not rule out Hinduism..
"Though there are so many Gods in the Hindu Pantheon, most Hindus will tell you that they believe in only one Supreme Being and the plurality of all these Gods are simply perceived as the various divine creations of that one Supreme Being. "
Resource: https://www.buzzle.com/articles/hindu-gods.html

2. "Some other things in the song make it hardline Islamic, such as "philosophy is sin".

Ohhh, pleeeaasseeee...
If philosophy is sin in Islam, then how do you explain some of the greatest philosophers of all times such as Al-Farabi (recognized as "the second master" of philosophy, Aristotle being the first), Ibn Sina (mostly known as Avicenna in the West, who is regarded as a father of modern medicine), and Ibn Rushd (also known as Averroës, known for writing the most elaborate commentaries on Aristotelian logic)??
Resource: Just Google..

That should close the book on the possibility of it being Hindu.

Some other things in the song make it hardline Islamic, such as "philosophy is sin". This isn't being offended at it being religious, I don't mind a little religious speech, but I really don't like hearing something as intolerant as this. Would you want to hear a song incorporating a Westboro Baptist preacher, regardless of how cool the beat was? The sentiment of "philosophy is sin" is theocratic, totalitarian and intolerant, and I'm not nearly tolerant enough to tolerate that.
 


I always like to hear something surprising new music. There's enough "eclectic mainstream" on RP.

Add to that its a quintet of European guys trying to be hip doing it.  An even clearer 1.

Maybe it's just me, but this reminds me of nothing more than The Spanish Inquisition .

Because it is provocative.

I can't stand it either, but this is one of those songs that provokes pretty amusing commentary.  Might be worth it just for that.

What. The. Hell. Is. This.
one thing just crossed my mind: in some way this song resembles cake's "Thrills" - https://www.radioparadise.com/content.php?name=songinfo&song_id=39919 - a (hate) preachers speech dubbed with funky beat. in cake's case I assume this is irony, but in this case I consider the opposite.

Album sleeve notes:- The Masaladosa continent, which lies between Asia and Europe, brings us a spicy mix of Indian and Modern music. These five French musicians have travelled the world, from London to Calcutta, from Jamaica to Rajasthan, bringing back a hypnotic sound and contagious energy. Accompanying the mystic oscillations of the sitar are percussions and ragas brought from India, but also Jamaican grooves, World, Dub, Drum n’ Bass, gently salted with a touch of electro: a surprising blend of Indian and Modern sounds.

Spiralling melodies ascending to elastic rhythms, MASALADOSA has found a middle path between traditional instruments, studied with Masters in India and pounded local samples. A spiritual and high-sounding meal to be tasted live! Once on stage MASALADOSA gives it their all, breaking borders and overpowering the senses.


In other words another bunch of sampled garbage. They never even listened to the words, and much less thought about them. A clear "1". No question.


Just rated it with a 9. Whatever you say, at least it's provocative. It's should be played more, not for the music but just to see how people react. {#Evil}

Bill should play this with "Mercy Now," and really bring out the anti-religion squealing.
i don't like to hand out 1's and 2's, but there're already too many people talking about religion in this world ... i beg to differ
VOTE = 2

I'm not an expert on this, but the sentiments sound more islamic than hindu, and it does sound pretty hardline. I also could probably go without this song as I think it furthers the sterotype of that part of the world being very backwards. I'll give it a four because it does sound cool if you don't listen to the lyrics.

Not sure I'd want it in heavy rotation on my local Top Forty, but it's interesting in a cool way.

there is no god.

Morning thought with morning music with morning tea.......

Ganesha if the pictured toon, and it's Hindu.

I just watched "Slumdog Millionaire" last night and this made me think back on the movie....India is so fascinating, but I sure wouldn't want to live there.  This cut seems ok, but doesn't stand out particularly well.  6
i bought this album after hearing this the first time on RP - i recommend instead going to their myspace page and checking out some of the newer individual tracks there ... not unhappy with the album but so far there's only a couple tracks i listen to
