World Beat Playlist – For me ‘World Beat’ music  has always been an odd definition of what outside of the Western World is just simply called music. There are literally hundreds of tempos, genres etc. to the point where trying to lump them into one category seems almost pretentious, and incorrect cataloging at the very least! Anyways the, ahem,  ‘World Beat’  music on here ranges in tempo from slow folk to high energy dance beats, and covers many different styles, much of it Middle Eastern, African, Indian, or Asian. If you want to hear just the faster, dance friendly tracks on here check out my World Dance playlist.
