Dune Riders is a five-track instrumental trip through imagined desert landscapes. Each piece is a remix or reimagining of my earlier composition “Scheherazade”, blending elements of trip-hop, ambient, jazz, and world fusion. It’s the story of a caravan crossing dunes, dancing under stars, chasing mirages, and resting in silence. No lyrics, just music to travel with.
Dune Riders: Dune Riders is a steady, cinematic ride through endless dunes, with echoes of zither and ney wrapped in downtempo rhythms. Built around a reimagining of the Scheherazade motif from a previous composition, it mixes Middle Eastern melodies with a laid-back groove that feels like the slow travel under the sun of a caravan in the sand
Silken Veil: The caravan stops, the night falls, and veils start to dance in the wind. You’re not moving, but things are still unfolding: campfire light, soft fabrics catching the breeze, stories exchanged in whispers.
Mirage Unfolding: You think you see something real on the horizon… but it keeps changing shape. That tension between what we chase and what we actually find is what inspired this piece.
Phantom Oasis: Inspired by the feeling you get when you wake up from a dream you didn’t want to leave. You might think you’ve found what you were chasing, but it flickers and fades.
Sands at Midnight: Enjoy a moment to sit with the silence before the next story begins.
