Title Description:
Veiled Sisters" was first released by Soleilmoon as a double CD in 1993 (SOL 20 CD). It
was received with great acclaim at the time, and is still enjoying steady sales nearly ten
years later. Bryn Jones, AKA Muslimgauze, recorded a follow-up in 1996, in which he
reworked and recycled the materials into another album. It was delivered to Soleilmoon
more as an afterthought than something he intended us to issue. "Veiled Sisters Remixes",
as the piece was called, was held back from release at Bryn's request, with the reason
being given generally that he wanted us to release something else that was "newer and
better", in his words. Now more than three years after his death, and with the continued
consent of his family, we are pleased to finally be able to issue this forgotten gem of
music. It's typical of its period, a time in which his work was reaching a creative
zenith, but it stands out for it's unusual use of a single album as its source. In the
time between the original "Veiled Sisters" and the "Remixes" Bryn acquired and mastered
the use of nearly all of the professional studio equipment that was so important to his
later works. With this version he felt that he'd finally achieved the true vision of the
album that he'd set out to record three years previously. "Veiled Sisters Remix" was
designed by Alexander Baumgardt, the noted German designer who designed "Hummus". Both CDs
have a similar appearance at first glance, but they are in fact two distinctly different albums.


Vital Review:
It might be more then confusing I guess for people to pick up on this new
Muslimgauze. The cover has strong similarities to the previous one on
Soleilmoon 'Hummus'. A white digipack with yellow letters. These two
packages are by far the ugliest Muslimgauze covers I ever saw. Music wise
Muslimgauze is in a known territory. Blending sound pieces from his Veiled
Sisters release from 1993, but presented in a remix format. Forty minutes of
music, presented as one long piece mark his working method. Fast put
together Arabic rhythms, rough song structures, but, as with most
Muslimgauze CDs, the occasional great track. One that goes down
very well, I guess, for the bigger amount of Muslimgauze fans. (FdW)
