Shifting Sands

CD of Arabesque Music

Buy Shifting Sands on CD

Cool Middle Eastern beats fused with modern club sounds. Traditional instruments are used to create a bittersweet, earthy vibe. Haunting Arab/English vocals and dark beats makes this music perfect for dancing and great for listening to. Music is great for dancing and creating an intriguing ambience. The sound is unusual and evocative of the romantic, exotic and mysterious.

The live sound is good too and features authentic live bellydancing, exotic eastern and occult back projections and film. Together with the music and dance these are designed to make the audience feel a psychedelic change of consciousness. Project members are based in Merseyside.

Endorsements for Shifting Sands CD...
" ...played the CD at my dance class today - I loved it and the students did too - fantastic! What a talented woman you are - singing in any langauge is hard enough but in Arabic! Quite a strong CD, very empowering - a refreshing change from all the wishy washy stuff you hear - quite passionate and imploring. No. 4 and 5 are my special favourites No 1 is very haunting and raw indeed - quite clear words, even if I don't know the meanings of them. I'd like to do a dance to No. 4 - quite North African/Andalusian, love his voice too!"
