Good solid music to bellydance to and an enjoyable listen

"Having danced for almost 17 years, I'd say that this is one fine CD to own. For those of us searching for a solid middle eastern sound, yet with some variety to increase our enjoyment of dance movement, we'll like it! Amazing to find more than one track that is danceable and enough difference in the tracks not to bore you or your audience senseless. I am looking forward to listening to some of Emad's other releases that I have ordered as well and will try to give my opinion there too. A new and pleasant change is having lyrics translated [and they do it in English, Spanish, French and German] as generally we in the dance community have no clue as to what they're singing about. Track 2 is as they say a flirtatious duet, though the laughter interspersed through the music could be a detraction for some and a delight for others. I haven't made my mind up about it yet. Track 11 has a VERY nice percussion selection. And, out of the 11 tracks total, I think that 75% have strong possibilities for choreography."
