A loooong time ago when I was workng on a show with Daveed Diggs, he mentioned he wanted to create a hip hop song in 6/8  (yes, I know, it's 12/8 for the purists).  I remember he stressed that he wanted to make it sound like a 4/4 song to keep that hip-hop head-nodding effect. 

This is an excellent example of what I like to call Future Folkloric.  Taking a simple classic story (a wolf and a pig) and retelling it in a new form.  And doing it excellently, I might add - so simple, and yet amazing.

It's dated, in Internet terms, but still good.

I first picked up Mondomix at my rehearsal studio - it's a free (bi)monthly mag that covers the world of ... (cringe) "world" music.  It's definitely edgier than the Putumayo offerings, I'll say that much.... 

Sita Sings the Blues is, quite simply, stunning.  As an integral narrative, it has some small challenges.  For example, the movie counts 5 radically different types of animation, and it takes a bit to get over the mental resetting you have to do to switch from one style to the next.

But as an experience, it is unparalleled.
