Middle Eastern music, much of beat driven with a fair bit of electronic wizardry.

Middle Eastern Playlist 250+ Tracks – Whether its a Turkish artist playing Anatolian psych rock or a pasty Welshman hammering away on an Oud over sampled beats, the songs on this playlist in one way or another represent the sounds of the region. Like a lot of my playlists much of the music on here contains instruments traditional of the genre played over modern beat making and programming. I love the organic sound of live instruments, but also the energy and creativity of electronic production so Im always looking for interesting new music that combines the two.
