Al Zulfiquar Shaheed – Kontakt 12 LP
Muslimgauze produce los seis tracks que componen este doble LP lanzado por el sello Kontakt Audio.
A serious showcase for Muslimgauze’s mastery of hypnotic, Eastern-inspired soundscapes. Clocking in at over 75 minutes, the five tracks delve into a world of intricate rhythms, droning keyboards, and ethereal atmospheres. ‘Sadhu’ sets the tone with its hypnotic percussion and swirling melodies, while ‘Shaheed’ and ‘Mosaic Palestine’ build upon this foundation, their extended lengths allowing for deep immersion and sonic exploration. ‘Ayodhya Skin & Stone’, the album’s centerpiece, is a sprawling epic that seamlessly blends traditional instrumentation with electronic textures, creating a mesmerizing tapestry of sound. ‘Iraqi Opal’ provides a contemplative conclusion, its delicate melodies and atmospheric textures leaving a lingering sense of wonder. A testament to Bryn Jones’ ability to create immersive and transportive sonic experiences.
