Staff Benda Bilili
African Congolese street musicians. They live around the grounds of the zoo in Kinshasa, and play music which is rooted in Rumba, with elements of old-school R&B and Reggae. The core of the band consists of four senior singers/guitarist, who are all disabled (they suffered from poliomyelitis when they were young) and move around in spectacularly customized tricycles. They are backed by a younger rhythm section consisting of ex-sheges, abandoned street kids who were taken under the protection of the older members of the band. The soloist is an 18 year-old boy who plays astounding electric guitar-like solos on a one-stringed lute he designed and built himself out of a tin can.

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Punjabi Qawwali music... supposedly special music producing emotions of love, fear, desire, repentance, etc. All i know is it has a great tribal rhythm to it.
