[Cross-posted w/edits to Hip-Hop Bellydance tribe]
Sorry to "join and post", yet I thought I was already a member...silly Asim.
Anyway, like I was saying over at Belly Dance Electronica, I'm 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:

Thoughts?
