You are wellcome Reen.Blom honey
Well there is some confusion about Tsifteteli/Chifteteli, because at one hand there is this 8/4 Arabian rhythm which is called Chifteteli or Taksim. At the other hand, there is the Greek belly dance called Tsifteteli. If you want to know more about it you can read my article about Tsifteteli
What is Tsifteteli?
as well as the thread about Tsifteteli in the music forum
