Trying to find Egyptian tabla dubstep?

Hi,
I usually dance to dubstep like skrillex and glitch mob, but am looking for a tabla solo type song which is still sort of dubstep-y but with a slightly more Egyptian feel.
If anyone an help me it would be great.

Thank you.

:confused: Interesting question. It might help to know what kind of dance you are doing. Is it a style of bellydance (if so, which one), or is it more like hip hop, popping/locking, or waving? Sometimes I have seen dancers perform what they call "bellydance" to dubstep/electronica, except the dancing more closely resembles locking and waving.

I'm sure you can find something you might like...I briefly searched on youtube and found some possibilities, but I'm not sure what you're looking for? There are electronica/dubstep songs that try to incorporate sounds of "Ancient Egypt"--be careful about that, as more often than not, it is simply fantasy and no more Egyptian than Skrillex is himself. Also it could be hard to a "tabla solo type song" that is dubstep, because drum solos are, well, solo, and the electronic elements of the song would mean it's no longer really a drum solo. Basically, what I'm getting at is that you'd be hard pressed to find something dubstep that actually sounds authentically Egyptian.

(Even though I'm suddenly curious if Egypt has a dubstep scene).

Sorry I'm not much help. I did find this cool video, though!
