5.0 out of 5 stars phenomenal
phenomenal blend of new age digital composition and traditional eastern and middle eastern vocals and instrumentals. I love almost all the tracks, and haven't heard such high quality and immense variety of both innovative composition and singing in a 'world' CD.

3.0 out of 5 stars It just doesn't work
If you're looking for smart melding of world music sensibilities with a jazzy Western vibe, you're looking in the wrong place.

If you're not, you're still in for an aural feast.

5.0 out of 5 stars Belly Dance Music & Soothing Tracks, January 13, 2004

This review is from: Third Planet (Audio CD)
I am listening to the CD right now, and it is so relaxing. There are a handful of sings suitable for belly dancing, upbeat and energetic, such as Track 12. Other songs are so intoxicating, you may just want to use it as soothing background music in your home for a nice evening. I'm happy I have this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good music, but not for everyone ..., May 6, 2003
This review is from: Third Planet (Audio CD)
The language isn't English, but the sounds are good. Very international flavored and mixed well. It'll put in mind of the Middle East. I never get tired of it.

I have played this one over, and over again for the past week. What an excellent mix of music. Many of the songs are certainly suitable for Dance Parties, with the mixture of beats ranging all over the earth. BUY THIS CD NOW!!!

For music with similar intents that actually works, try instead John Wubbenhorst, Safa, or Omar Sosa.
