Slumdog



Many of you will be familiar with the 2008 film Slumdog Millionaire the story of a young Indian lad from the slums of Mumbai who wins the jackpot in the Indian Version of Who Wants to Be A Millionaire.
It won the Oscar for best film in 2009 with Danny Boyle picking up the award for Best Director.
A R Rahman was also a worthy winner for Best Original Score and Best 0riginal Song for Jai Ho.

It is a terrific soundtrack mixing traditional Indian music with house music and hip hop. It also features M.I.A ( or the atomic M.I.A as the blurb on the front cover would have it)
As I'm feeling generous you are getting two versions of Paper Planes.

M.I.A. - Paper Planes

M.I.A. -Paper Planes (DFA Remix)

A.R.Rahman featuring Alka Yagnik - Ringa Ringa

  5. I like this one and hope all parties involved with the Clash got paid for this one big time as the sampling is extreme. Still, can't argue with the results.
