Yip, I agree with this statement.  I have just bought

EASTERN UPRISING : Dance Music from the Eastern Underground

and although this is a '97 release, which might well have been 
reviewed at the time (although I can't remember) here's the 
tracklisting and it's a VERY fine, energetic mix of D&B influences 
with sitars, tablas, fem vox _a la_ Natasha Atlas, even some rapping. 

1. JOI - Goddess
2. CORE - Cocoon
3. EARTHTRIBE - Sitar Funk
4. BLACK STAR LINER - Harmon Dub
5. SAFRI GOES TO BOLLYWOOD - Dum Maro Dum
6. KROME ASSASINS - Return of the Shankar
7. TANGO PADRE - Temple of Boom
8. BEDOUIN ASCENT - Ruffistahn
9. ASIAN DUB FOUNDATION - R.A.F.I.
10. MASTERS OF SOUND - Loaded Mantra
11. EARTHTRIBE - Rude Boy
12. PATRINA - Om
