If you liked the first cd you are going to love this one , either you are a belly dancer , circus performer , new age person , all the material can be suited for an out of this world experience , the composition of this album filled with ethnic spices , funky sounds , and great rhythm is a must have for the lovers of unique music.

I own the first album by Beats Antique and think I might even love this second one more. Wow. I can't stop listening. It's a cross between tribal bellydance, circus, hip hop and techno...great for tribal/dark bellydance, though I'm not a bellydancer, just LOVE the tunes. Saw them live recently (Oct. 08) and it was spectacular. Great album.

This Beats Antique album is great but at the same time not for everyone. If however you like a contemporary sound fused with belly dance and electronic give it a listen. The opening track offers a refreshing beat and the album continues from there. Bassnectar also remixed Roustabout which I would recommend. Seeing them live is definitely where its at. Overall a great album and making music few can replicate.

This is a very fun CD. Love the music. I keep listening to it over and over because it has so many unique sounds and rhythms. My husband usually does not like the music I belly dance to, but he actually enjoys listening to this cd quite a bit (he's a drummer if that helps).
I can't think of one thing I don't like on this one (there's even one that reminds me of a video game). The only thing I will say is if you know you do not like dark, circus, or industrial sounds, you should definitely listen to the clips provided on Amazon before buying. The clips are not deceiving like they can be for some discs, so that was a nice surprise too. :)

I will be buying more from them!

ENJOY!

This CD has been in constant PLAY mode in my car for weeks now. It combines traditional Middle Eastern instruments and sensibilities with modern breakbeat stylings. VERY upbeat and just the right amount of funky. A real winner all the way!!!

Just the thing to keep me going on my job. I particularly love the electronica and hip hop elements going on here, and the way they blend seemlessly with the more traditional bellydance sounds. A little creepy. A little funky. Boy, what a unique sound! I've listened to dozens of bellydance music albums and they are all starting to sound the same. But this stopped me dead on my tracks.

I absolutely love Beats Antique's raw, tribal music. I was turned on to them after listening to an online radio station and I haven't looked back. What else can I say? Their music just moves me. If you love tribal, middle eastern-vibe, belly dance music, this is for you!

If you like unusual (not pop mainstream) electronic and dance music, as well as "balkan" (eastern european) music, this is perfect !!!!

Has gypsy belly dance beats mixed up with well composed instrumental melodies, sometimes varied with more moody electro. I am happy to have discovered this.

wow i got this cd fast and in perfect condition

beats antique kill it with this cd...i saw these guys live and its even better had to buy a cd to bump in my car

I got to see Beats Antique at Bonnaroo 2011. What a show. With Zoe Jakes belly dancing and drum work, I went into a different dimension. Time stood still, but I couldn't. Very unique musical sound but you've got to check them out live, or east check out some videos on u-tube. It was an unbelievable experience and their CD will transport me back to that moment.
