There was a Tool CD that came out like 4 years ago with some arabic sounding stuff on it.

Not arabic, but the Mechwarrior 2 soundtrack (starting on track 2 of the game cd) is really good for driving around open spaces.

Found in bargain bins all over.

Albeit obvious - the fallout soundtrack is always a good choice. Alech Taadi by Cheb Khaled is another good choice, infact, most of his songs have a pretty good middle eastern sound to them, but that one in particular is good.

I highly suggest Tiniwaren, one of your Earth rock bands that formed in a Libyan refugee camp during a time of civil war. They are Touareg desert tribesmen whose musical creations seem to capture the harsh essence of desert life and bloody conflict. Two subjects, friends, about which I know volumes.

ZZtop... The early stuff!

George Baker Selection - Little green Bag (even though thats more like a resourvoir dogs theme, still great music to cross a desert to)

"...Restored to their original linguistic and geographic milieu, the people of the desert stop being ‘Touaregs' - a false name meaning ‘abandoned by God' which was given to them by the Arabs - and become imajeghen (‘free men') or kel Tamashek (‘The Tamashek speaking peoples')...."

Looks good.

I'm still looking for the indian chanting/acoustic guitar/gong-banging beautiful chaos I originally found on a website in the 90's. Just can't seem to find it again.

"counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums" by a perfect circle,

anything from Johnny cash.

"dragula" from Rob zombie


anything from Cake is good for driving around.


and "sand storm " from Darude

That is the strangest mix of music ever chosen.

You should do a megamix of all those.
