After a best mate of mine introduced me to Fela Kuti's works I've been real interested in hearing music from other cultures you don't hear much stuff from. Doesn't have to be traditional music styles (love it when genres and cultures fuse together, like Masayoshi Takanaka taking influence from Brazilian music), but I'd love to hear that as well!

Brazil isn't an obscure country, but there's an indigenous band called Uakti that builds their own instruments. It's some of the most unusual music I've heard. They also have some classical albums, and one by Phillip Glass that I like to listen to when I'm coming down from a trip.
