Rhythm In Mind - Flow

2009-12-21T17:07:54Z

So today Octofoil Records just released my fellow label mate Rhythm In Mind's latest release - Flow. This is primal percussive extraordinaire Eric Beam at his finest. The album is available for download only on itunes, emusic, amazon, and rhapsody and is simply amazing - one of the most amazing sonic works of art I've heard in a long time - I expect that a lot of dancers will want to play with this one. Check it out

Music suggestion for Dark-Asian fusion....

2009-09-02T06:55:37Z

Hi all,
I am working on a new dance set and I have some slower music tracks but I really need a med/fast piece of music with a Dark-Asian flavour.
Anything that includes hints of Japanese, Balinese, Javanese, Chinese would be ideal.
I already have the Solace CDs (love those guys) so I am looking for something else. Any suggestions?
Cheers :o)

For more information contact: Kali Das or Naraya at vadalna@yahoo.com

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS:
Knock 'em dead!
What works on stage, you ask, especially those bigger ones with the fancy lighting, back stages, and sound guys? This class is for those wanting an understanding of what really carries all the way to the back rows. Get ready for big fantastic whip-sharp moves supplied with clear and concise explanations for graceful and flawless execution. Tips and concepts to make you hip work bigger, sharper, and more polished (thus more effective on stage), and how to improve speed while not loosing clarity of movement.

The Art of Making It Weird (Slow, Lovely, and Strange)
We are going to ride the edge between exquisite and strange in this slow movement workshop. All that ooey gooey stuff that is so fun and delicious to watch and do will be focused on, using elements from the head down through to the fingertips. We will be focusing on super slow isolations, extreme undulations, and upper body technique. Hand work, elbow work, wrist work, posture, oblique strengthening (to get that horizontal pull that makes mayas and hip slides so exquisite and strange), belly rolls with emphasis on stomach musculature. And of course the elusive flutter!

ABOUT ZOE JAKES…
Zoe is a proud member of The Indigo, which recently was on the road touring their new show Le Serpent Rouge. She has been touring with Bellydance Superstars since the fall of 2005 and can be seen performing on their new Tribal Fusions DVD. Her first DVD, a drum solo choreography, will be coming out this winter. Combining talents with David Satori and Tommy Cappel to form the band Beats Antique, Zoe has just release their second album with CIA records, Collide. When not with The Indigo, she tours with The Yard Dogs Road Show, a cartoon circus sideshow of wacky dimension, and has been seen tearing it up with the Extra Action Marching Band.
An innovative dancer, Zoe has been said to have her own unique take on Tribal bellydance. She takes her influence from Art Nouveau, tango, Breakdance, and Indian classical dance as well as all things vaudeville. Zoe was nominated for Zaghareets best interpretive artist 2007, and The Indigo recently won best troupe 2008. She loves unicorns and has never once doubted their existence.

Please recommend Gothic music for duet or trio...

2009-05-01T18:37:22Z

I'm looking for fabulously gothic and dark and dramatic music for a duet or trio for bellydance, but which would be suitable for both oriental and gothic moves. Either dark versus light (I rather like this idea) with darkness overcoming, or both dark and gothic but with also an elegant oriental feel. So some light bits in the music as well as dark (preferably) We're traditionally trained in Egyptian but have also danced gothic stuff too :-). Does anyone have any good suggestions for music to use which is no longer than approx 4 mins?

need some house & trance style bellydance music suggestions

2009-04-22T05:43:23Z

I'm finding a lot of breaks & beats kind of stuff, and a lot of interesting sounds, but I am having a hard time find some bellydance electronica that is in a house or trance style. Does anyone have any suggestions for the kind of simple, happy, uncomplicated techno for a belly dancer's enjoyment?

Thanks, all!

music recommendation

2008-11-11T15:09:24Z

I'm very proud to announce the release of my good friend Manko Eponymous' "Kaihealoha" album. It is available digitally on Amazon mp3, emusic, and other fine digital download sites. It should be on itunes in the coming weeks. Manko Eponymous is a Washington DC area tribal fusion electronic, spoken word, and rock/folk fusion artist. "Kaihealoha" is a great album from a great friend, made for a great friend and for the greatest cause.

Here are two good reasons you must buy this...

The first reason is that some of the proceeds will help support Kaihea and Manko's mounting financial constraints from medical costs; Kaihea is a pillar in the Washington DC tribal bellydance and fire community who has been fighting cancer for several years. The second reason you must buy this album is because it's a wonderfully rich mix of world tribal fusion electronica and powerful rock/acoustic ballads.

If you are looking for tribal electronic music to bellydance to check out "Eliseo," "Kummer," "Pura Dai," "Black Rook," "I Enigma," and "Alive," among others. The track "Kummer" has been sought after by many artists and renowned dancers for awhile (I've been looking to get a copy of this unreleased song for nearly 2 years). But outside the realm of tribal fusion electronica, other portions of the release explore a range of rock and even humor - see "the Melodia Song" for a good laugh.

This album is for a good cause and it's also a great body of work that I've personally waited to hear for several years. Download this release now on emusic, amazon mp3, or other digital download sites today.

Great Price on NEW TAFFETA ISIS WINGS!

2008-09-10T07:59:38Z

Taffeta Wings previously priced at $199 are now $159! For a limited time, you can receive an additional 20% DISCOUNT while current supplies last, an amazing value for this very high-quality fabric at $127!!! (This is $72 less than the original price, email me directly to receive the discount :)

I have just received a brand new limited production of Taffeta Isis Wings! This heavier, opaque fabric creates a stunning, shimmering effect with movement. Taffeta Wings are as luxurious as wearing a beautiful gown! They can look like a cape when draped down your back.

Taffeta fabric is a crisp, smooth lustrous fabric with a slight sheen made of various fibers, such as silk, rayon, or nylon, supposed to have originated in Persia. The name, derived from Persian, means "twisted woven." Taffeta is in the same class and demand as satin made of silk. It is considered to be a "high end" fabric, suitable for use in ball gowns, wedding dresses, and in interiors for curtains or wallcovering. Taffeta was also used to make medieval Noble Ladies dresses.

New Taffeta Colors: Black, Plum, Turquoise, Lilac Purple, Burgundy Wine, Lemon Lime, Ruby Sapphire.

Eco Couture & Costumes

2008-08-20T18:06:45Z

Hi, I'm seeking like minds.

I grew up designing and making my own clothes since a little girl, and apprenticed with Mirage in Melbourne, Australia’s largest CMT house for major Oz designers; before studying fine art at Heatherleys in London. I was also sponsored by Mirage and a runner-up in the Australian Fashion Awards. Then I traveled and lived in a few different countries and got into planet activism and events, then running an online arts community, then helping manage festivals. Now current fashion has caught up with the designs in my head and the ideals in my heart and I recently returned to designing eco-friendly wearable art.

The stuff I’m now designing and reconstructing are Eco Couture, individual one-off’s made from recycled and vintage fabrics. My design skills are coming back and improving with each collection batch. Sketches and photos of recent experiments are up at http://www.recycledfordancing.com plus I already have clothes in 2 boutiques, addresses are on the site under Retail Stores.

I also do custom stage gear; before working on festivals full time I actually did costumes for Music TV dancers, musicians, and theatre. I had a few designs on national TV way back when, on long running music TV show called Countdown. And I designed costumes for a whole Bertolt Brecht play at the Chelsea Playhouse in London, plus whole wardrobes for nightclub dancers and contemporary cabaret, and fire dancers for festivals in Byron Bay.

My current designs are inspired by San Francisco and Japanese street fashion, as well as European Couture and Burning Man. For me it is sculpture using textiles with a wearable framework and chaos, I take something that I see and mix it with something else that I see, each piece inspiring the next piece. Anyway take a peek at http://www.recycledfordancing.com for art’s sake, and keep me in mind when you are thinking of new additions to your wardrobe or recycling your wardrobe.

Thank you for being here.

Is it just me?

2008-07-02T07:00:27Z

I noticed tonight that there are 762 members in this Belly Dance Electronica tribe.

I posted that we would be doing a live Belly Dance Industrial performance with a lot of electronics
in it within shooting distance of the SF and Monterey Bay areas and
I was shocked that not one person came to the gig from this tribe.

Are you all only interested in recorded music only? Is there just not a strong connection
with people actually playing music like this in public or have I just overstayed my welcome here.

I'm not overly sensitive about this, but I'm perplexed a little.

The gig was extremely well recieved by most who came but there just weren't very many belly dancers there.

Using Field Recordings from the Middle East

2008-06-27T06:36:29Z

Howdy

I'm heading to Cairo in a few weeks and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience getting some field recordings to add to their collections of samples.

Right now I'm debating on a digital recorder and think I'm seriously considering the Samson Zoom H2 and a boatload of SD Cards.

Anyone have realtime experience with this or similar products, and/or discussing the options with the locals in Cairo? Might street musicians be amenable to a little sampling?

Heck, I'll be happy to get city street noise, but that's my experimental roots coming out.

Celtic electronica

2008-04-21T11:40:39Z

Hi there,

I've googled and searched and I just cannot seem to find some decent Celtic electronica for fire dancing. There used to be a musician who had a single on myspace called "Tekno Train" but he wouldn't respond to messages requesting to buy the song (isn't that the point of putting your stuff on myspace?).

Any ideas?

Thanks, in advance.

Jef Stott's new album & Western Canada Tour

2008-02-20T17:52:11Z

Six Degrees recording artist Jef Stott is releasing his new full-length album this spring. In support of this release, I am helping him hook up some tour dates in BC and Western Canada in late may - early june.

I am interested in networking with anyone in Nanimo, Tofino, Sunshine Coast, Whistler, Kelowna, Nelson, Penticton, Vernon, Kamloops and as far as Calgary who might be able to give some leads on promoters/venues that would take on a booking of this fantastic artist.

check out: http://www.jefstott.com and http://www.myspace.com/jefstott

Jef will probaly be touring with Dumbek master Drumspyder (http://www.drumspyder.com/).

These two are versatile enough to do just live acoustic sets, suitable for small concerts or Haflas, or even in-home shows, to nightclubs for just djing, and then into their full life PA rig with laptops, Oud and drum. So- there's lots of options and flexibility for different events/venues/promoters.

Please message me personally if you can help out!

VST Synth/sampler recommendation

2008-02-07T15:17:55Z

I'm finding it difficult to find good samples or VST plug-ins with excellent Arabic instruments. I'm currently using Cakewalk SONAR (since I was a big Cakewalk fan back in the...*ahem*...DOS days. Yeah, dating myself)

I'm kind of set on drums 'for now' with Hadeeth I & II and Wizoo Darbuka, plus plenty of samples from friends. Could always use more, but I'm extremely interested in usable samples of mizmar, oud, ney, kanun, etc.

Anyone with any input? I'm considering the following:
- MOTU Ethno Instrument
- Sibelius Sounds: World Music
- East West Quantum Leap RA
- Orient World
- Ethno World 3

All are varying in price. Some include loops, most include drums.

Thoughts?
Thanks!

best MP3 player? X-post

2008-01-22T21:05:15Z

Hi everyone!
I need some input. I am totally tech. impaired and I need to get up to date on things. I want to get an MP3 player but don't know which one to get. I'd like to know your personal experiences. My computer won't let me burn CD's anymore. I'd like to get a player that can hold a lot of songs. I guess the iPod only works with iTunes. I've never used iTunes before. Does it have a good selection? I like really out there stuff, mostly Industrial. It wouldn't seem a good buy if there isn't much of that to download. Also ease of use? Basically I'll be playing this sucker in the car while making my LOOONG trek to class everyday.
Thanks,
Val

I'm looking for some Indian Electronica on itunes

2008-01-18T01:56:42Z

Does anyone have any suggestions for some Indian Electronica on itunes?

I already have Bollywood Lounge(on cd) by Don Shiva and Tantra Lounge Volumes 3 and 4(also on cd) by various artists including Anoushka Shankar, Petrol Bomb Samosa, and Natacha Atlas. I have some music by Cheb i Sabah, too. I'm not sure if his music would be considered Indian Electronica, but it's really good!

I'd love some suggestions! Oh, and anything with female vocals would be great :)

Thanks!!

Sharaab: Can't keep him to myself forever..

2007-12-02T00:41:47Z

My Atlanta dance troupe, Abhushana, has kept this guy our own little secret for a year (we knew him so we got his music pre-release). But now his CD "Evolution" is out and I have to share, else what kind of supportive fan would I be?

http://www.sharaabmusic.com/

You can get Evolution on itunes, cd baby, or amazon. I recommend giving a good listen to the tracks "High Life" and "Nosering". I think I've danced Nosering to death already.

From CD Baby:
Sharaab's signature sound incorporates elements of Indian classical and folk as well as Middle and Far Eastern music, which he integrates seamlessly with contemporary electronica, ambient, downtempo, breakbeat, and drum'n'bass styles.

Shimmy in the Shadows (July 1, MA)--call for dancers, vendors!

2007-05-23T18:40:52Z

Hi all,

I am very excited to announce that I am putting on another gothic belly dance event here in the Boston area--Arlington, to be exact: Shimmy in the Shadows! The incomparable Aepril Schaile will be teaching a workshop on her fabulous veilwork, and then we'll have an honest-to-goodness gothic hafli. Want to perform? Contact me asap for a dance slot, requests will be taken on a first come, first serve basis and the number of performances will be limited, because open floor dancing will be an important part of this event.

Also, if you vend anything you think might be of interest to gothic belly dancers and those who love them, you are more than welcome to drop me a line about vending at the event. I'm really looking forward to this, I felt like Raks Spooki back in the fall really helped create a sense of community for those of us exploring the darker side of dance and I'm excited to help keep that feeling alive! ... er, I mean, undead ;-)

(see event announcement in this tribe for more information on the event itself)

MP3 streaming links

2007-05-03T16:11:40Z

Hi

I'm creating a player with all my favourite music, it's a player like in My Space but where you can list different artists:

You create it here:
http://www.mp3assets.com/

Example of one:
http://www.iqons.com/mariaphotographer

Do you know a place where they play ethno techno music and have links to songs in MP3 streaming format? (legal MP3 streaming site) or a place where I can buy individual songs in MP3 format?

Thanks

María

what's up with itunes??

2007-04-23T21:42:57Z

So, I did some searches for cool BD music I've been hearing about (Oojami, Pentaphobe, Zaina, Turbo Tabla) and everything I look up is listed but not available in the U.S. Does anyone know what the deal is? Is this a licensing issue?

I almost never buy actual CDs any more so this is very frustrating!

Need music suggestions

2007-04-08T11:30:59Z

Hi all!

So, my car got broken into and 7 years of dance music was stolen. Most of it was not backed up (I know, no excuse). Anyway, a lot of it was music that I had just acquired over the years and I'm unsure of the names of the artists and titles of songs.

I'm slowly but surely starting to rebuild my collection (heavy sigh), but I sure could use some ideas on new music! I'm a tribal dancer who regularly performs to Cheb i Sabbah, DJ Lorin Bassnectar, Karsh Kale, Amon Tobin,Ekova, dub step DJ's, etc... but I really love heavily percussive, industrial sounding world fusion music.

Can anyone suggest some artists or DJ's that I should look into? Oh, and if you could also suggest where I can find the music, I would appreciate it so much! Good dance karma!
Thank you!

Sherri

live industrial belly dance music this Monday in Santa Cruz

2007-03-31T21:30:01Z

with guest artists, Craig McCoullough (trumpets/laptop treatments) and Robin Jacobs (guitar playing ex-founding
member of Switchblade Symphony) my project nO thiN -g (John Connell and Rick Walker) will be
performing live at the BOX (SC's longest running goth club) this coming Monday night with
Japan's the Royal Dead.

This will mark the first time that the BOX has had ilve music so we are excited about changing that tradtiion.

Also, for the sake of tribaly and gothic belly dancers everywhere, we will be performing to the rhythms
of Beledi, Nawari, Karsilama, Samai, Shabia and other traditional dancing rhythms.

Come put your costumes on and show these uneducated goths and rivetheads what beautiful tribal belly dancing is all about.

Anyone in costume gains free admittance. If you want to perform, just come up and ask me........I'll be behind the drums.
don't be shy.

The BOX is at the BLUE LAGOON directly across the Pacific Garden Mall from the SC Bus Depot in a nice neighborhood
with a lot of free parking.

recommend any traditional sounding electronica?

2007-03-24T08:34:09Z

Can anyone recommend some tradition sounding music based electronica? I mean traditional middle-eastern music with some nice electronic stylings that still is recognizeably traditional... does that make sense?

Many thanks!

In The Sprit

2007-03-14T20:33:22Z

It is not electronica presay but it is incredable music! Please visit Spectal Voices web sight and listen to Jim Cole's overtone singing. I think it would make incredable belly dance music. I would pair it with tabla. He has an expantion project and if enoghe people ask him I think that he might consider it. Please go to the sight and take a look and a listen.

working on a new track for nO thiN -g

2007-03-02T07:58:10Z

I've been working on a new track for the nO thiN -g project with John Connell.

It is not a middleeastern rhythm per se but uses a cuban rhythm that has a very
strong influence from middleeastern music.

It's a work in progress but I thought you all might enjoy listening to it.

It's downloadable in mp3 form for free (43 megs, I believe) at

DJ Rupture and Filistine mixes

2007-02-15T02:26:21Z

[Cross-posted w/edits to Hip-Hop Bellydance tribe]

...I've mentioned Rupture one 'round here, yet remained astonished that many dancers I know haven't heard of these guys. Not quite electronica, or world music, or hip-hop, or a lot of different things, I think my description of Filistine goes for both -- "one of the good guys in the realm of world music re-workings and re-imaginings, and the set is an amazing, high-powered drill, pokin’ holes in the walls separating cultures."
They both have a bunch of free music online, and I made two recent posts in my dance blog, APOSTATE, that point to some of that music:

for those interested in dancing to live Industrial/Middleastern/Gothic/Electronica/LiveLooping fusion music

2007-01-08T00:30:29Z

I've very excited to announce that my project nO thiN-g will be playing

Heavy Industrial oriented traditional Belly Dancing music

for any and all to dance to
at this week's DEFIANCE, Friday (midnight performance), November 17th
at Club Caution (516 Front Street, Santa Cruz)

I will be joined by Switchblade Symphony founding member, Robin Jacobs on guitar and
the amazing John Connell (multi-instrumentalist) on bass guitar.

I've been disappointed that a lot of tribal and gothic belly dancing music always seems so ambient and new-agey at times
so I wanted to do something a little darker and aggressive yet till use rhythms that anyone who's ever even had a beginning
belly dancing class would be able to dance to.

All the rhythms will be traditional......................all the sounds will NOT be.

I hope you can make it, I hope you feel like dancing.

Urceus Exit from Vancouver ( www.UrceusExit.com ) a band in the strong tradition of Vancouver bands Skinny Puppy and
Front Line Assembly will be opening the show. This is a strong live industrial band. Don't miss them!

yours, Rick Walker

Belly Vision

2006-11-13T21:29:56Z

Hello Ya'll

I wanted to let you all know I started a new tribe called Belly vision http://tribes.tribe.net/bellyvision which is intended to be a resource for bellydancers to check out what I have been capturing on video since I started this hobby! There will be links to You Tube and Google video and of course you will be able to see your beautiful selves @ times as well as some of your other favorite dancers....

Coming up within the next week or so I will have posted scenes from SHADOW DANCE captured in Oakland Ca. on Nov. 10th. Also you will be able to see the teaser for Unmata's Bllod Moon Regale video recorded October 28th in Sacramento Ca. This will be the prelude to a DVD viewing party that is in the works....

(If you performed in any of these shows or any shows you see me with my camera and do not want your performances on You Tube please let me know, I will gladly respect your wishes)

Much Love!
