"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."
Great CD!!!

"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!!!"
Fresh! Creepy! Funky! And fun!

"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."
Love this music!

"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!"
