When I bought this CD, I was expecting traditional sounds with a drum and bass backbeat possibly, as the thing that draws me to arabic music is the vocals, and the range of sounds that amazingly eminate from one persons mouth. They have two CDs No. 1 : The Casbah, faster remixes suited to dancing. and No. 2 : The Majlis, this is when you sit, chill and smoke some hookah, whilst listening to the slower jams. Unfortunately, they have not only remixed and revamped the music, they have done the same to the vocals. Some of the songs can be a tad too long, clocking up to 7/8 minutes, which doesn't seem too bad, that's if you like said song in the first place. But, don't get me wrong, I still enjoy listening to it, but as soon as I come across a good revamped modernised arabic CD with original vocals, this one is going to be gathering some dust.
