Search - Muslimgauze :: Alms for Iraq

2009 posthumous release from the prolific Experimental act. Bryn Jones (AKA Muslimgauze) recorded this album in December 1995, just three years before his early and unexpected death at the age of 38. A perfect example of late-era Muslimgauze delivered with abrupt starts and stops, swooping transitions, and layer upon layer of samples and ethno/techno rhythms. The packaging for this CD is a 6-panel 5.5-by-8 inch tall folder, with a cover photograph by Susilo Hadi, licensed from Getty Images for a cool $690.00. It shows a pair of feet poised above a pair of flip-flops bearing the words Israel and USA printed on the soles. The inside panels include a number of pictures, some with strong or disturbing content, collected from various websites dedicated to publicizing the conflicts in Iraq and Palestine.
