Yeah Kincajou is pretty typical. Most of Banco De Gaia's stuff is in this vein, kind of trancey ethnicy slightly breakbeaty, lots of flutes, tibetans etc etc. First album is called Maya, the second is Last Train to Lhasa, and just recently Live at Glastonbury came out. I haven't heard the album, but I was at the show and it was incredible, but that was probably mostly down to the crowd and the setting... Anyways I recommend Maya above the others, but Kincajou is on Last Train to Lhasa, so you might want to try that first... Enjoy! Andrew C.
