  • Djnn is wonderful
    author: Kahina

    I purchased this Cd because I saw them on You Tube at Rakash East and I truly love their music..I will continue to be a fan..

    Djinn has done a great job mixing mid-east and American music. They kept it earthy, too. This has the groove and funk I was looking for: down-home dance music, not synth/over-the-top tribal, I am grateful for that.

  • gorgeous sound
    author: Calico

    one of my teachers used this cd for part of a class a few weeks ago, and i knew i had to have it! gotta love that dark hurdy gurdy whine! and of course, absolutely awesome to dance to.

  • Great music, great tribal fusion dance with it :-)

  • this is really fun
    author: Ben Borkovitz

    It really gets you dancing - the drumming makes me want to pick up a drum and learn how to play...

  • A must-have for bellydancers
    author: Rada

    It's been several months I've been waiting for a Djinn CD album and I was not disappointed by "The Middle East Side". Great for bellydancers but also for lovers of traditional eastern music blended with modern rythms.

  • All the cuts are great!
    author: Yalda

    So rare to find a recording where ALL the cuts are fabulous! I can't listen to this at work because it is impossible to sit still while it is playing. I especially like Jimmy Hafla (I'm undecided about the name, though). Can't wait for Djinn's next CD.

  • An awesome CD especially for belly-dancing!
    author: Ayeesha

    If I can dance to it, I own it, that's why I own this CD, 'nuff said!

  • OMG! I can't stop playing this over and over again! Fabulous for traditional bel

    author: J

    Wow...so good...only problem is figuring out which song to dance to!

  • Fabulous CD!
    author: Jenny

    Absolutely wonderful! I enjoyed every minute of it.

  • Wow! How do you follow that?
    author: Irene

    Provides inspiration for aspiring artists, musical or otherwise. Fun to listen to and to practice dance moves to. Allows for stretching the imagination to the limit. Djinn - yeah, they are.

  • So Good!
    author: Lola

    Some of the songs in this album are so good they can actually induce orgasm. Brooklyn balady transports me to a past life... must be that hurdy gurdy...
