Catalogue: Borderless: "Vol. 10: Drug Me Tender (selected by DJ Big Buddah)" - Various Artists - Piranha Jubilee Series

On Drug me Tender, the world music scene's Mr Nice, DJ Big Buddah mixes up 12 high-percentage Piranha cocktails. Traditionally hard-drinking Klezmorim feature in the recipe, here with a boozy contribution from Frank London's Klezmer Brass Allstars. In Malu Malu, the Godfather of Nubian Soul, Ali Hassan Kuban, warns of the dangers of sensual seduction, a warning which is completely ignored by Balkan Brass virtuosi Boban I Marko Markovic, who trumpet praises to that hard Dixieland drink, Southern Comfort. An enticement to enter the world of exotic trance is offered by Mbira Queen Stella Rambisai Chiweshe. At the end of the party, The Klezmatics give us "one for the road" with A glezele Vayn.

Cooler than Gandhi and more unpredictable than Zinedine Zidane, Marseille's Big Buddah is an expert in the art of mixing and blending different world sounds, creating his own unique musical geography. Say the words "asian-beat", "boogaloo-house", robotik rai", South African kwaito" or "electro-Libanese" and he will immediately serve up an amazing array of tasty tracks.

A journalist specialising in nothing but curious about everything, Big Buddah has been mixing his loops and riffs for over a decade. With his growing reputation come gigs at events such as Transmusicales de Rennes, the Sfinks Festival, Africolor, Fiesta del Suds and the Actual Festival.

Step up to the Piranha bar and try it, if you dare!
