about

The 10 tracks of this CD are Muslimgauze pure: repetitive loops of Arabic drums going on ad nauseam and enriched by some oriental melodies. The sound is gritty and dirty, like often with Muslimgauze, and fans won't be disappointed at all. The particularities of this work lie, in my opinion, in the use of samples of females voices on several tracks, more prominent than on several others Muslimgauze CD I know. Moreover, I think that the recording quality of these work could have been a little better. Like all the material released since Jones' death, this was more or less still at the level of a demo, and it's highly probable that he would have re-recorded parts of some of these tracks before releasing them (the bass have a tendency to saturate, for example on "Mumbai Dook").

Apart from this, these 10 tracks are good, catchy and hypnotic like only Muslimgauze material can be. Like the 125 releases than came before and the numerous ones that will follow, this bear the specific mark of Bryn Jones' talent. No big surprise, but no disappointment once again.
