Depends on what you're looking for. If you want to hear some of the more improvisational pieces, I like these two: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUMGnUAVDeE and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDsjQvt2g6o. In my opinion, finding live recordings of concerts gets you a lot of the playful and melodic aspects of the tradition. It's also helpful to listen to the same raga by multiple artists across songs to develop a feel for the emotion in the raga.

If you want to go for structured, sometimes more religious, songs, you can find good stuff on Spotify and YouTube. This (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqsAvDRjJ04) is one I like, sung by the same artist who performed Pi's Lullaby in Life Of Pi.
