Arabic multicultural update
I’ve been exploring the usenet groups and found a gem:
alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.new-age
It has much that I’ve been looking for––mainly old CDs that have been lost or damaged. Stuff by Kitaro, Keiko Matsui, Coyote Oldman, etc. Hard to find around here, and most of it is out-of-print. Also tried some new items just because whoever uploaded it made it sound…interesting.
Somebody posted “Arabic fiddle. VERY GOOD!” I took a chance and tried it.
It was indeed VERY GOOD!
An album (CD?) by Vanessa. That’s all the info I had. Oh, had the album’s name––Longa V.
I searched Bing and YouTube. Found her!
Please enjoy Vanessa Nassar!
That is the kind of Islamic/Arabic culture I enjoy. The Muzzies should export more of this and fewer Jihadists. I think we’d all be better off. I also got a kick out of the Arabic ads afterwards.
A little more on Vanessa Nassar:
The beautiful young Vanessa was just nine years old when she started playing violin, her music is a fusion of occidental grooves and oriental spirits.
Vanessa is the most anticipated violin player in the Middle East. It’s not actually hard to figure out why, it’s because underneath her beautiful look, lies individual musical virtuosity and the sharpest of ears for what a global audience wants to hear.
Vanessa is an entertainer and sees no shame in that. She is a genuinely genre-defying act, willing to go beyond category to explore the joy of music regardless of the cultural hamstrings that restrict the creativity of so many classically trained musicians.
An explosive live performer, Vanessa stared in an intensive touring program that has taken her around the middle-east several times already, where she especially shined in Khmissa Festival even though she hasn’t released yet her first album and music video: Longa V composed by Sami Bitar and directed by Yehya Saade.
Her album that will soon be released is set to bump high figures into the stratosphere.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
