Today’s Soundtrack: Putumayo’s Asian Grooves

I have a lot of chores to do today, and chores definitely require musical motivation! I’m tired after a long week, so didn’t want to pick anything too crazy, but just enough to keep me moving…and my selection was the Asian Grooves collection put out by Putumayo.  It’s definitely mellow, but with a good beat.  Perfect to suit my mood.

Most of the tracks are from India, with a few exceptions: Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Algeria, Trinidad, Germany (not sure how this one fits…but eh).  Maybe I just have India on the brain because I’m working on a farewell scrapbook for a friend who is moving there to be a missionary!  Either way, I love hearing music from different countries, because it’s such an important part of culture.

So I’m cleaning, drinking tea, and “groovin” alone in my apartment on a Friday night.
