In this sequel to one of Six Degrees' best selling compilations, the label once again documents the extraordinary power and far-reaching influence of music from the Near and Middle East, and North Africa. Arabian Travels 2 explores the mesmerizing sounds of Arabic music and its influence on electronic, ambient, dance and dub music.

"San Francisco's world-music fusion label Six Degrees brings together a second helping of hybrid grooves from a globe's worth of musicians who meld traditional Middle Eastern and North African sounds with contemporary electronica; imagine those Missy and Jay-Z singles with blips, beats and a range of instrumentation filling up the holes where the rap would be." - Barry Walters, Rolling Stone
