    Absolutely every track on this album is a winner. I have the DVD, so the music was familiar anyway. As a tribal dance teacher, I use it in class - and we are performing track 10 - using some Kassar moves too!

  • This Rocks!

    My mom found this cd and got a copy and I loved it so much I got one! I totally recommend this to anyone interested in the tribal flare.

    Wow! I really like this one! It has exactly the "darker" vibe to do some sensual dancing to.

  • It was really fun and sort of kool to listen to your music on my computer and feel very proud to know you and your work.
