Caravan Dance

An original piece in the Kitaro 'Silk Road'-era style — NOT a transcription of any specific copyrighted recording, a stylistic homage in the same spirit as this collection's own New Age pieces. E harmonic minor at 126 BPM for that modal, Middle-Eastern-flavored color (the raised 7th, B→D#, is the signature interval). A real sampled flute carries the melodic hook over a driving acoustic-kit dance groove and a sequenced bass pulse (Em–C–B(♯7)–Em, arpeggiator-driven, same 'held chord becomes a sequencer line' trick 'Horizon Signal' uses) — real sampled xylophone doubles the hook for a mallet-percussion color, and French horn stabs punctuate the Whirl climax.
