Soundtrack for the Olympics: The Shanghai Restoration Project



I read about the Shanghai Restoration Project on NPR.org.

From the website: SRP "draws its creative inspiration from the old 1930s Shanghai jazz bands, an early combination of East and West that's become an international legend. The Project revives this exotic blend by introducing Eastern instruments and rhythms to the Western sounds of hip-hop, jazz, and electronica. "

You can sample the music on Myspace. So far I like.
