Hello, I am kind of having a hard time finding instrumental takht music...
the best so far is the Oyoun by Shamma and the rest..
What would you guys recommend and something that can be purchased electronically (pay and download) would be excellent.
I am talking about the takh, not snares , Pianos, bass guitars and accordions ...
Waiting for your recommendations.

There are some suggestions here:

There is also Simon Shaheen's "Turath" recording: http://www.amazon.com/Turath-Masterworks-Middle-Simon-Shaheen/dp/B00005UF46
And Sharq Ensemble: http://www.xauen-music.com/showCD.php?cd=19
Also Birzeit University/Oriental Music Ensemble "Emm El Khilkal"
And Samir Joubran's "Tamaas", which is nice, though not a full takht (just ouds and percussion"
Also, Ziryab trio (again, not full takht)

Thanks guys,
I actually got Charbel Rouhana's Art of Middle eastern Oud from Itunes, also pretty chill.
