Veronica, I can give you some music songs and artists that I know who have good music, but you'll have to find them. Shik Shank Shok is the BEST song for belly dancing, and there is a remake by Haifa Wahbi. The music is perfect. I know that this may not be fully answering your question, but it helps, right? Amr Diab, Nawal Al Zoughbi, Nancy Agram (or Ajram) and most newer artists also have catchy music, but less belly dancing. Amr Diab has an older song, Wala Ala Balo, and if you get the remix, it has good music. The video gives some ideas too! Good Luck, Sarah
