Exotic vocal


Let's make it female vocal. I'll start:

Sussan Deyhim seems more haunting than exotic, but definitely both.

I like the message on this one; it's one that's not realized in this country, or maybe all countries that are supposed to be free. When every phone is tapped, and possibly even your PC; freedom is an illusion.

While this is an "Audiophile" forum, a brain should have the capacity to handle more than one subject.

Enjoy the subject
Orpheus10, I am sure our brains have the capacity to handle many subjects at the same time, but let's stay with exotic singing. I saw many videos with Sussan, the longer she lived outside her place of origin the more she was losing her undeniable talent and sense of the land she came from. She maintain her voice but became trivial and uninteresting, at least to me.
I wouldn't exactly call it exotic but it is certainly unusual. Kim Waters, I think, is her name. Devotion album by Rasa. She sings Indian devotional songs. Good sound quality for a digital.

How to define exotic singing? Does the female singer have to have an exotic look like Ofra Haza? Ofra has an incredible and powerful voice, but still not sure how exotic would fit in...
There are many Arab, Persian and Indian singers that are extremely good as perhaps anywhere else...
