Blue Stone - Holy Ground (looking for more) (techno, dance)

FreeSound · 06-11-2008, 09:43 AM

I really like this piece of music and would love to find more of it. I already know about:

Enigma
Dead Can Dance
Delerium
Balligomingo
Amethystium
Deep Forest

I'm looking for music that sounds specifically like the Holy Ground track with the techno-afro-tribal feel to it. I also really like Chaiyya Chaiyya Bollywood by Sapna Awasthi (featuring Panjabi MC version).

I don't want techno thump or house styled artists but someone who takes classic African or Middle Eastern percussion and makes it contemporary .

Are there any samplers/compilations that are a good place to start?

Thanks.

Try some Femi Kuti or Transglobal Underground.

Femi Kuti was more jazz influenced than I was thinking. Nevertheless as jazz it rocked so I nabbed a bunch.

Transglobal (especially Vanika) was more on the mark. Thank you Jackhammer.

Also try:

Bob Sinclar-Africanism
James Hardway-Moors And Christians.

Both good albums although the Bob Sinclar is more dance orientated.
