Jade (Update) by Eastern Expressions

This album represents a collection of remarkable compositions.
Personally selected by international world music artist Ruben van Rompaey, it serves as an introduction guide to the music of Eastern Expressions. With masterfully detailed, organic percussion grooves forming the music's backbone, the album captures original compositions which were created during different time periods showing spiritual influences from tribes and cultures around the globe.

Evolving from the musical worlds of Middle Eastern, Belly Dance oriented atmospheres into the progressive, modern tribal sounds on Mirage, the music of Eastern Expressions takes the listener into various moods, surprising pallets of sounds and different textures.

The album features some remarkable collaborations with outstanding top world music artists which have resulted in an amazing fusion of Far Eastern atmospheres, tribal psychedelics, authentic exoticism, modern Jazz and very danceable beats.

Smoothly blending musical worlds of acoustic and electronic instrumentation with immeasurable passion, this album is a must-have for belly dance enthusiasts and lovers of progressive world music in general!
