SHREM'S WORLDLY DELIGHTS: "Elhem - 1" - Diaspora feat. Amina Annabi

I have been grooving to this vibrant mélange of world beats for months last year and somehow never had a chance to share it with all of you here. It is a rare mixture of Egyptian and Jamaican sounds with a rather wondrous vocal performance from Tunisian legend Amina Annabi. You can find another 3 tracks featuring Miss Amina on Diaspora's "A Jamaican in Cairo" album via Green Queen Music. A burst of pure oriental beauty in a song.

SHREM'S ACADEMY OF ALL TIME BEST SINGLES: "FEEL NO PAIN" - Sade

We all have our favourite Sade songs... Well here's mine - "Feel No Pain" very often outshadowed by some of her bigger hits. This however is the most exquisite song in her repertoire in my humble opinion. Well along with "Love is stronger than Pride" which coincidentally appeared on side B of the single, remixed by dub maestro Mad Professor.
