links mixtape worth checking out (the only i checked so far) if you manage to go past the track with the annoying scratches, you'll hear some interesting drum jams where basic chords united with some funky drum mutes and raw cuts make it worth a play. Arabb style |

muslimgauze is some amazing stuff even more amazing as:(from discogs) Bryn Jones was not a practicing Muslim and never traveled to the Middle East. His recordings as Muslimgauze, however, qualified him as one of the Western artists most explicitly slanted in favor of the Palestinian liberation movement. Since the Manchester native’s works were instrumental, most of the political statement was inherent in the packaging: witness titles such as Fatah Guerrilla, Return of Black September, Hebron Massacre, Vote Hezbollah, United States of Islam, and The Rape of Palestine. Jones’s output was so idiosyncratic and prolific that he would remix anything he was given to suit his purposes and recorded an album almost every week. |

sometimes things are never what they seem to be, you have to look deeper, but if you are wrong then you didn't try hard enough |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there is always a deeper, especially when you're wrong ther more you wrong, the more you deep. hua! |
||||||||
|

Can you give a real world example of that nonsense? |

I'm sure you know what i mean Mark |

Is this excellent electronic music? |

why you ask, it's not white enough? |

not bad, not bad, some nice bouncy distorted oldschool drums n hats rhythms:) it wasnt like that in the older releases was it? i barely remember them, but my best of cdr which was mostly ambientish noise. |
||||||||

Lozenge Motif has a nice rolling rhythm & sound. pretty much like in good minimal wave tracks, but a bit more appealing to the feet imo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, but I was wondering if this is called electronic music or world music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
electronic music world music fans will have a heart attack if they heard some of muslim gauze stuff |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd call it just music, considering that 90% of electronic music is shit. the few that made to ONE good record should make up their minds and call it 'music far to fall into the electronic music' category. really racist towards this. |
||||||||
|

electronic music fans are obese idiots |

some of my favorite bryn jones is essentially dub.. |

not Bryn but cool |

With that statement you're discriminating electronic music fans but anyways: can you give me the answer to my question: is this music made with electronic equipment or played with live instruments? Damn..that aint so hard, is it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it is mostly samples |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't know, he could have recorded them and make them sound electronic, cos they sound electronic, and not cos he changes the attacks to the drums. who the fuck cares |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for example listen to those shit compositions its not the actual drums, or the samples above, that make his music sound arab, palestinian or whatever the fuck he wanted to be. and YOU CAN't FEEL THAT |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for simple stupid reasons that i'm not gonna spoil in here. some years ago, maybe. lol. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i always end up being sorry for you. why the fuck is that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't get me wrong: I like it but was wondering how much live action there is on stage..but I still don't know now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think it's a way of doing things that ensure the live action to be heard despite the obvious post production. doesn't it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So if I'm going to see him live if I get the change..I won't see a live band? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think he's dead from quite a few? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

now playing the track Dar es Salaam off the Dar es Salaam album notice how those lazy interventions make the composition sound nearer than it would sound without them sounds liek he was dazed by those mosques in the distance, the flies and the crickets at night time sounds like he was there, cos he knows the score |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm discriminating who? |

'khartoum north' is a rim-shot fest |

god, i love the buzzing sound of a mal-inserted jack, with the bass talk about distortion plug ins |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the track zeila djibouti (the whole album) shows how much he was good at fucking with pieces from an external perspective, next to the stage of production. fucking with tunes afterwards makes it the the noise becomes part of the actual composition, forming unexpected patterns that keep repetitive pieces fresh cos they look they're done by hand. another funky possibility, syncronized as a human hand can be after listening a sound and moving something, then planning repetitive actions between that and the sound that comes next |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't know if it was that track or 'morgue of instanbul' that gave me that clear impression, all this is more likely to be spotted in small speakers/headphones. but there's no bass there |
||||||||
|
|

its like having a built-in max msp in your hands. ha |
||||||||

|
placing a long sample and jamming over it, or jamming and placing a long sample over it kinda makes the same effect. i found that long landscapes, being nature or urban ones works well over dance rhythms too, not only in simil - raga music like 'arabbox' off the album 'arabbox' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it does depend on what samples you use. |
