Nitin Sawhney

I'm currently enjoying Nitin Sawhney's Beyond Skin, his concept album about nuclear proliferation in south Asia. But I was wondering whether people here have other recommendations for Sawhney's output?

There are 2 more albums just as good as Beyond Skin or perhaps even slightly better: Migration (1995) and Displacing the Priest (1996). I have those 3.
What comes after is too diluted with more mainstream pop of the time.
I could imagine that the one before: Spirit Dance 1994 is good too, but I havent heard it.

'Beyond skin' is a great album IMO. album that came afterwords that I can recommand are follower 'Prophecy' (quite alike Beyond skin), and 'Philtre'. Those are very good albums, but less than 'Beyond skin'. I hardly know materials prior to these albums, and somehow lost contact afterwords.
Another album I can recommand is by another asian-underground artist, Talvin singh's 'OK'. Very reach in sound and Indian influences.

There is much less India in the albums after Beyond Skin.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone.
