    Default That "eastern" sound

    hello guys and gals,

    can anyone recommend me some "eastern"/"Indian"/"Hindu" .sounding dance tracks.

    even some samples would work.


    sorry for my lack of a better description.

    You might like something from Beats Antique. Or maybe Talvin Singh.

    None of these are technically 'eastern' but have elements of 'that sound' and might help bridge the gap at the beginning of your set if your playing after someone who is playing stuff more from the 'west'. A sort of eurasian selection


    Technically not an eastern riff but has that 'sound' if your playing to people who are uncultured in world music (which face it is almost everyone) you can easily get away with it. Its Russian (in-case god forbid you didn't know about proxy):


    Proxy - 8000 - Bear in mind this has a low bpm.

    Santigold - You'll Find A Way (Switch & Sinden Remix) --> maybe too obvious?

    Stuffa & Andy - Pretty Girls (Sinden Remix) --> supposedly the original is nicer but I haven't listened to it yet.

    Basement Jaxx Ft Dizzee Rascal - Lucky Star

    just my two cents - these might be totally not your genre
    Novation ReMote 25, Novation Launchpad, Traktor Pro, Macbook Pro
