A middle eastern, Arabian sounding, epic, highly dramatic piece, featuring eastern chant vocals, large drums and percussion section, strings, choir and other ethnic instruments. After a foreboding, tense opening section, the main percussion and chant part comes in at about 52 seconds into the track.
Far-Eastern feel with Chinese/Tibetan cymbals, monk choirs. Moods go from light to dark, through mysterious, majestic, then back to light.
A relaxing, ecclectic rhythm groove, warm and laidback guitar melodies with a slight jazzy feel. Also features Indian sitar and tabla percussion for a nice and breezy, ethnic/world feel.
This is a long track featuring Tablas played in the unique middle eastern "finger" style, along with Sitars, Thai or Indian Reed flute and a suitably arab sounding 'drone' sound. The track goes through several different stages of various intensities and themes.
Indian style slide guitar, sitar and woodwinds over India percussion. The track builds in intensity as it goes on. Mysterious, mystical. Ethnic, ancient world mysteries. Oriental, with a dark side. Exotic.
A beautiful, traditional Indian love song arranged with a mixture of Indian ethnic instruments and more modern/western elements. Sung by the highly renowned Indian thumri singer Vidya Rao who has been kind enough to work with us on this track. Thumri is a form of Indian singing which originated in the temples where the courtesans of the temples used to sing about lost love. The lyrics in this song can be summarized as a woman singing to a dear friend or lover in a far-away land, singing for him to return to where he belongs. Arranged with tabla, Indian strings and soft pads. There is also an alternative version without the vocals, and yet another version with only the vocals and soft pads, in a more "ambient" setting. Haunting and beautiful.
An exotic, haunting Indian vocal track sung for us by highly renowned Indian female singer Vidya Rao, whom we feel privileged to have worked with on this track. Her sorrowful singing/chanting in the alaap is as atmospheric as it is emotional, and is accompanied by a clean jazz guitar, joined by jazzy drums and bass at around 1 min 45 secs. Alaap literally means introduction and it is traditionally used by an Indian singer who goes through many permutations in the notes of a raag finally resting on the tonic and then nods at the tabla player to set the rhythm. A smooth blend of the traditional and the modern, of the East and the West. Great for use in travel and adventure, chill-out and exotic moods.

Slowish melodic with Indian style slide guitars and tabla. Appealing, gentle melody and a very vibrant sound. Positive and emotional.
Uptempo Indian track with Indian slide guitars and strings. Very exotic sounding. The track features a free-tempo start, then percussion and bass enter at 0:20. Full-on drums enter the third time through, to give the track an additional lift. There's also an alternative 'no free-tempo start' version which skips the free-tempo opening part and goes directly to the main rhythmic part.
