Week End Diversion - Banco de Gaia - Last Train to Lhasa

Peaceful and ambiant. From my BestOf

allmusic ((( Last Train to Lhasa > Overview ))): "Review by John Bush

This double-disc concept album concerns the commercial invasion of Tibet by Chinese merchants hoping to overrun the peaceful country. Despite some watered-down beats, Toby Marks weaves Eastern-rhythms and futuristic synth quite well over both uptempo and ambient tracks."
