Muslimgauze - Medina Flight


I have a very special place in my heart for Bryn Jones aka Muslimgauze. He had such an absolutely unique, beautifully harsh and jarring music that came out of him (usually middle eastern and/or noise based). He was mad prolific and politics were the basis of his instrumental music. Extremely educated and obviously musically talented, this man played all the instruments you hear and only used tape loop samples for accompaniment. He once said about his music, "There are no lyrics, because that would be preaching. It is music. It is up to you, to find out more. If you don't want that, it is up to you. You can listen to only the music or you can preoccupy yourself more with it."
