Title Description: Manchester, England's Muslimgauze has recorded a new album of propulsive Middle Eastern grooves layered with Arabic radio samples and non-stop percussion loops. "Hussein Mahmood Jeeb Tehar Gass" sees Muslimgauze taking a turn away from his recent electronic distortion experiments into a smoother flowing rhythmic current. The harsh war field atmospheres of the past have been replaced by tricky beats and science fiction noisescapes. Imagine distilling the essence of the seething Gaza strip into a fizzing ambient/techno cocktail and you've got the latest Muslimgauze sound. In the increasingly predictable world of electronic music we're confident you'll never find anything remotely like Muslimgauze. Indeed, we humbly submit that his imitators (you know who you are) can only fall further and further behind.
Seven pieces, including the recommended "Bilechik Mule" and the title track "Hussein Mahmood Jeeb Tehar Gass", comprise the main body of this work. A pair of outer space dub plates round out the album as bonus cuts: "Uzi Mahmood 7" and "Uzi Mahmood 12", four other versions of which were issued by Soleilmoon on a limited edition 12 inch in the summer of 1998.
The cover artwork features the painted photography of acclaimed New York artist Shirin Neshat, with design and layout by Plazm, the group who brought you the controversial graphics on last summer's Muslimgauze's "Mazar-i- Sharif". "Hussein Mahmood Jeeb Tehar Gass" is the next chapter in the ever- evolving Muslimgauze sound.
