--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Its finally out, one of 08's best productions yet. Danjo, comes with yet another quality release appealing to all due to its vocals and melodies.The Lebanese are quite crazy about this track due to the origin of the vocals. Lebanese traditional vocals with the voice of Lebanese singing Legend Fayrouz. No need to go into the details, as you all already know how astonishing the track is, with the vocal samples in the thumping intro and the incredible breakdown with the Lebo vocals.
As for Monogato's Filth Remix, Monogato comes with a dirty remix of this beauty with a very appealing intro and thumping basslines in addition to vocal samples. Breakdown is in and again the legendary vocals, but this time Monogato gives more effects the vocal samples with reverbs and delays, including reversing the breakdown melody of the original track, adding to it a lot of essence.

As you all know this track, it is one of Danjo's best tracks yet, due to originality.
Support the Artist and enjoy the release \0/!

yes, a very good track indeed. Danjo has done a very good job!
I just would like to make a point here.
You tranceheads are now loving the arabic vocals in Trance?? Remember..! As you Elios said, these vocals are for Fairuz! And many lebanese & arab djs (including me, Said Mrad, etc..) did this idea before. However, you people never even tried to listen what local DJs do..Why ? ARABIC is cheezy!
OH WELL...You got the results from a Dutch Producer, so you like it. However, he adds unmeaningful words like Chwaya Chwaya in the song, and you still like it.

:crazy:

"Lebanese" word count: 4

Aren't you going to continue?

Yes it's a brilliant track, but not so OMG. Sure does get some serious Lebanese (:O I SAID IT!) trance-heads crazy though I am worried that if I ever play it out loud, the true Fayrooz fans might get insulted you know? I wouldn't mind anyways. Trance r0x me s0x!

Aaaaand the point is..... it's a good track.

the point is , we take EDM tracks with arabic influences in them more seriously , if they were produced by non-arab producers ....

just checked the track out ... excellent ... very well done , it touched me saraha , you know how some tracks leave a certain trace when you first listen to them ... ??! well , this one did ... especially the Monogato remix..

kudos !!

Yes well when it comes to music, it's only a minority of Arabs who will succeed INTERNATIONALLY. Not just in trance right?

The trance influenced Arabic songs that you find to be a cliche nowadays in almost every album released are usually produced by a normal composer who happens to know some EDM-producing skills.

Here's a tip for ya, acapella's dont exist when it comes to Arabic music. They record everything on the same channel or simply dump the acapella once the song is successfully recorded.

In order for Arabs to hop into the EDM scene, they need to learn more EDM production skills and take out the God damn Arabic tabla from every single song that gets recorded. It's not that of an amazing instrument!!!

The way Danjo produced this track was not genius, but just different. Fayrooz's voice did it all and it's a great idea to bring out the Arabian voice of a woman into EDM. I can see this as milestone for many future Arabic influenced EDM tracks. And NO DJ Antoine's music isn't what I'm talking about.

When I first heard this track in my car (I think it was Asot 330) the vocals sure gave me the finest goosebumps, mostly because they dealt with my much-loved home city. I gotta admit that I also sent an email to AVB’s managers requesting that track to be played again, even thou I agree with Crow’s point: beside the touchy vocals, the track ain’t worth being requested, It has a quite cheesy melody. I doubt it is “the best track of 2008 till now” as I heard many times in this forum… I wonder how lame that track would have been if I didn’t understand what the vocals says…

It is a great track indeed, arabic 'lebanese' vocals or not! In the end however, liking a track or not remains a matter of taste...

As for the OMG issue that only goes for foreign producers, that is not true at all...
What is true is that foreign production is QUALITY while, sadly, local production isn't!
Truth hurts, but it is after all, the truth! Sorry Raneem....
And you seriously mentioned Saeed Mrad? You seriously wanna argue that his production is not the finest kind of CHEESE?
Give us a break in here!

Some ppl might go for only foreign music and think it is better. But the rest of us know when to recognize music as being quality. Give us good local productions and THEN, read our subsequent comments.

i somewhat agree with you ... we need more local talent , but i can also give you some light of hope ....

Aly & Fila seem to be heading in the right direction ...

raneem's remix of desert rose still rocks my ipod ...

Ali Ajami & Chris Micali's work is great ... especially strings of life ...

Alaa or transparance work seems to also get better and better ...

Ali also once played a remix of phil collin's easy lover , which after i asked him who it was , found out it was his bootleg ... THAT ROCKED !! Ali if you read this , i am still waiting for it ...

the problem with EDM in the middle east , is that its still young , unnurtured , and somewhat unacceptable , so its hard to get quality results at this stage ... but hopefuly, in the near future we will see more breakout artists ... and i seriously have high hopes for raneem after the desert rose remix ...
