12/7/2005 - Turkish Belly Dance

Song: Turkish Belly Dance
Artist: Some Completely Amazing Drummer Guy
Why this song is the current jam: This is basically just some seriously bad ass drumming. There are so many different things happening in here and the song moves and changes all the time with all sorts of crazy rhythms. This is just a gem that I found via dumb luck on the internet. I got really into belly dancing music after talking with Nina and Naomi who do some bad ass belly dancing themselves. I just downloaded a bunch of stuff and got lucky. If you are looking for some music like this, you can try out some stuff by Hossam Ramzy. He is a really good guy for this kind of music. If I were you though, I would stick to stuff that is just drums, because even the best dudes are really not afraid to throw some seriously cheesy piece of shit synthesized strings on there and really weird that shit up. Think of the worst music you would hear at your favorite falafel joint. You dont want that. Also, for some really amazing bellydancing, check out Rachel Brice. This chick is seriously amazing. Naomi first showed me her dancing on her Bellydance Superstars DVD and let me tell you my friends, there was a lot of rewinding going on. And yes she is hot, but really that is just a lovely bit of icing on the cake of her really really extraordinary dancing. She will really make you respect the shit out of bellydancing in a new way. So enjoy the song, and definitely take a peek at the clips on her site. They are really cool, and they do her no justice at all.
