about

The inescapable Muslimgauze classic, finally available again after 25 years!

Originally released on the obscure French label T.4 back in 1994, "Al-Zulfiquar Shaheed" stands out as a major long lost showcase of the glorious early to mid-90's Muslimgauze period. Four intoxicating suites showcasing Bryn Jones' ability to create lengthy, slow burning and detailed compositions soaked with trance inducing percussive impetus and beautiful — never again to be reproduced — middle eastern atmospheres.

Recorded at the legendary Abraham Mosque in Manchester, the album was carefully remastered by Anders Peterson and is lavishly assembled in our custom 6-panel digisleeve packaging.

We are honored to help keeping this timeless Bryn Jones masterwork alive. Muslimgauze forever in our hearts.

Also released as a handmade Boxset Edition with extra items.

This album is jolting, rhythmic and vivid. I listened to it fully and an it was an experience. I found this artist randomly through TikTok and cannot be thankful enough that this unique music was brought to my attention. I recommend a deep dive into the substantial catalog. zenmaster489
