salem al fakir

my inner conscience often tells me to avoid the whole michael buble wannabe frank sinatra genre...it creeps me out and reminds me of my mother and i don't particularly enjoy either of those things when i'm listening to music. i am not, however, opposed to a little modern take on jazz/soul/funk here and there, which i find to be the antithesis of the toolishness that is michael buble and his counterparts. (okay, the two genres aren't really connected, i just felt like hating on michael buble...) so this leads me to my point, which is that salem al fakir, an award winning swedish musician, is, in the words of tony the tiger, grrrrrrreat. while i can't pigeon-hole him into any one genre, i assure you he's really good. here are some trax, check em out:

good song
it's true
this is who i am
thank you

aaaand if you're looking for a little electro, sebastian ingrosso and axwell do a great remix of it's true here.
