A powerful new archival release from the legendary experimental project Muslimgauze, titled Muslimlahore, is now available worldwide via Bandcamp. This album continues the ongoing posthumous excavation of Bryn Jones’ vast and politically charged body of work, offering listeners a fresh immersion into his unique blend of ethnic electronica, dub, and tape-based soundscapes.
Muslimlahore presents a suite of tracks that reflect Muslimgauze’s enduring fascination with South Asian and Islamic themes, filtered through his signature style of layered percussion, field recordings, and hypnotic loops. The album’s title evokes the city of Lahore in Pakistan, situating the music within a broader context of post-colonial identity, resistance, and cultural memory.
The tracklist includes reworked or newly titled versions of pieces such as “Sikhizlam”, “Ismail Merchant”, “Hinduzeen”, “Maskara”, “Tariq Aziz”, and others, suggesting both a revisiting of past ideas and a continuation of Jones’ lifelong sonic engagement with the Muslim world.
