Family Feet I have close to 900 Muslimgauze songs and last year they were a bit of an obsession. Muslimgauze songs are either great, good, not too bad or crinkly paper shit that shouldn’t have seen the light of day. This album is great. Favorite track: Pt 4.

about

In Search Of Ahmad Shah Masood (was released during a period of intense focus for Muslimgauze. The tracks sizzle and crackle with a fervent static charged momentum. All four tracks are distinct and bare little resemblance to one another. The common ingredient that binds the four is the noisy square wave bass that keeps time and holds the rest of each track in check.

As with other releases, there are dropouts, short circuits, noisy exclamations, and distorted overdriven peaks. The music itself stands simultaneously and yet indecisively near earlier ethnic world music percussion and relentless, seething up tempo snares. There are a few recognizable dub influences although one could argue the bass lines more clearly resemble Jamaican dance hall than Dub.

The recordings earned him a devoted following in underground, experimental and industrial music circles worldwide.
