Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s nephews try to pick up the mantle of their late uncle, but turn out to be not a patch on the master. I miss Nusrat :-(.

Track 1: traditional clapping -> slow vocal intro (lead + choir) -> uptempo singing with intermittent wailing/improv. Pattern repeated 3-4 times through the track.

Track 2: Mid-to-uptempo, traditional qawali elements.

Track 3: Midtempo, classical (sufi devotional).

Track 4: High pitched choir, somewhat unconventional tune. Catchy.

Track 5: Slow tempo, classical (sufi devotional).

Track 7:Mid-to-uptempo, energetic performance of well-known qawali.

My picks: 1, 4, 7
