    Seeking jazzier version of Leylet Hob

    I am looking for a modern, sultry, jazzy, beat-heavy version of Leylet Hob. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've searched this and other forums, but haven't found exactly what I'm looking for.

    Thanks for any input!

    Well, I don't know if this qualifies as sultry, but there is a remix version on Belly Dance Orient Beats Vol. 3. Beat heavy. Lylet Hob.

    Most versions I have seem to play the song pretty much straight up. You could try different spellings. Leilet, Laylet, Leylet, Lylet

    Do you know about the Samir Sorour (S'rour) one, Lilit Hob, on the album Ashek el Sax?
    Reading your description of what you're looking for, I thought of that one right away.

    if you want a rather contemporary (beat heavy) one try DJ Nader's Laylet Hub.

    Rosette: Samir Sorour's Lilit Hob is the EXACT version I have been looking for for months! I just figured that it was a personally-created version for the dancer and was trying to find something similar. Thank you!

    I also found this version by DJ Said Mrad (Leilat Hob) offers a fun sound for those not going for the original sentiment of the song.

    Jamielynn, I couldn't find even a sound bite of DJ Nader's Laylet Hob. Do you know where it can be listened to/bought?

    Thank you all so much!

    Samir Srour's version is a classic. I have to confess your description threw me off to think you were looking for something quite different from that.

    Forgive my ignorance, I'm a really new dancer. I should have looked to see the year it was made - to me it seemed like a more modern version given the sax. Thanks for this, I'll think in a different paradigm about music now. ;)
