Nefes = Breath. Electro Sufi-pop with traditional instruments.

There is also plenty of Arabesque music out there and I will get to that. I am more interested in the Black Sea and Kurdish folk music but it is incredibly hard to find online, and I am also banned from torrents here. Might have to do it the old-fashioned way - head down to the record store, sample a ton of records and pick out my favourites.

Some ambient electronic stuff, nothing too abrasive.

Sweet Trip - Velocity : Design : Comfort (2003)

This reminds me of Aphex Twin, the womanipulation of noises gives me mind-bumps. This one is for ZZyrus because I haven't seen him in a while.

Funky Nassau - The Compass Point Story (1980-1986)

http://www.mediafire.com/?vgognermozf

"It is a sound which defined an era and became the very essence of Island Records. During the '80s, Compass Point Studios in The Bahamas, set up by Island MD Chris Blackwell, was a magnet for soul, reggae, punk and rock artists eager to inject their sound with some Nassau magic. And the magic, apart from the tropical sunshine, was the production genius of reggae legends Sly & Robbie, engineers Steven Stanley and Alex Sadkin, and the Compass Point All-Stars house band. Most people would recognise the sound from hits by Grace Jones or Tom Tom Club, an unmistakeable fusion of great, often quirky songwriting, dub production techniques and low end funk, extended into spacious and unhurried 12" versions. This was vibe music which has remained timeless on dancefloors ever since."

High Places (2008)

Healing, meditation, loopy drums and voice, feels like levitating.

Blogger won't let me tag exclamation marks, so I guess iii will have to do for now until someone can explain.
