5.0 out of 5 stars Borders on Trip-Hop, June 16, 2008

By	Anonymous Coward (USA) - See all my reviews

I'm a little surprised to see all the reviews of people who say they wanted to bellydance to this? I suppose so. I think that's kind of missing the point of the CD.

You could also say it's middle eastern inspired jazz, but I think that's missing a component of the music.

Personally, I'd categorize the music as middle eastern inspired trip-hop. A fusion of jazz, hip-hop, and psychedelia, all rolled up into a framework of middle eastern influence.

The music doesn't strike me as regular enough to dance too. Too many odd tempo changes and pauses. This is music you groove to, no matter what kind of grooving you do. You could chill to it in a dark room. You can groove to it while entertaining friends. You can groove to schoolwork. It's very versatile music. But more than anything, it's sheer pleasure. This is beautiful music. Beautiful, wonderful, interesting, compelling music.

By	Rachel "AZ Tribal Dancer" (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews

This CD is FANTASTIC! Definately my favorite CD as a tribal dancer. I HIGHLY reccomend this, the music is just phenomenal. You'll especially appreciate this if you're familiar with The Indigo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!, August 4, 2007

By	Stephanie J. Thiess "Mommy and me Bellydancer" (Cincinnati, OH United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great CD. I just used the music to dance at a show. A real crowd pleaser, and fun to dance to. I agree it brings bellydance into the 21st century, yet it also maintains "real" bellydance rhythms.
I would love to see another of these CD's soon please!
