Natacha Atlas - Something Dangerous

Atlas' music is a melting pot of different styles - it's electronica-pop with a middle eastern vibe, a bit clubby and a bit r&b, but also a bit 'darkwave' and a bit 'worldbeat' (not to mention the soul, jazz and 'torch' fusions going on)...frequently comes across all Dead Can Dance (also reminds me of Delerium at various points) and suffers from the same inclination towards vocal and musical histrionics; consequently, it took a few listens for me to take it seriously, and even now I'm not sure how much I like it, but it's definitely interesting.
