Customer Reviews:

a new classic in its own right.......2006-05-15

Not once have I played this CD while entertaining guests and not been asked what it was!

For the uninitiated, it offers a great intro to some of the definitive classics of (primarily) the Levant. The more seasoned ears will witness evergreen classics in their fresh new lounge outfits. Sure to induce nostalgia while asserting the progressive reality of today's young Middle East talent.

Great chilled out beats but with very strong character.

Downtempo Ethnic Fusion at its best.......2006-02-11

This collection of classic arabic songs that I grew up listening to has been superbly remade into very relaxing atmospheric downtempo beats, perfect for chilling in the tub, reading, cooking,entertaining, and for those that know the original classic songs, what a treat. If you are a fan of Claude Challe, then this will appeal to your palette.
