These sounds were created from Xpand!'s sitar sound font and Musescore's clave sound font. They were used in an ambient track simulating the sounds of exploring an ancient Egyptian tomb.

This could be used as a transition, when discovering treasure or a secret passage, or any number of events that need an Egyptian or middle-eastern flavor.

No need to credit me for this sound, but feel free to let me know how it was useful for you in the comment section below.

Thank you very much. I've used this as incidental music in a reading from a memoir about growing up in Egypt pre 1st WW, on the Slightly Foxed podcast.

Thank you for this, I was actually looking for an opening to my animated poem: XXXc - A Very Brief Chapter from the Book of the Dead. I was looking for something for the opening sequence - a circling shadow of Nekhbet, so vulture sounds and a desert ambiance and then I came across your upload and I think it will be wonderful! I will send you a link once I have made it and you will be credited! All the very best, Pavlovafowl aka Sue
