` `
"Citadel" is the fourth album release on
EXTREME by this enigmatic Manchester-based
group. For over 10 years, Muslimgauze have
defined their style as a Western
re-contextualisation of traditional Middle
Eastern music enhanced by technology to form a
post-modern mix of music, politics and
culture. Muslimgauze construct the music
through ethnic instruments that are a frame
for dark and sometimes foreboding aural
tapestries that capture the essence and mood
of the music of the Middle East and the plight
of the Palestinian people.
"Citadel" is an album of exotic Arabic
textures where traditional instruments
intermesh with technology, found sounds and
voices meld with drones and synthesizers. The
album uses both eastern and western rhythmic
patterns embedded in layers of shifting
soundscapes. The title track "Citadel" with
incessant tablas piercing through swirling
cymbals and a haunting melody. "Dharam
Hinduja", where staccato percussion moves to
fill the space between pulsing inverted
samples, and "Opel" with drones building only
to be overpowered by machine-gun rhythms.
"Masawi Wife & Child" has a subdued rhythmic
undercurrent while "Infidel" stands out with
its strident percussion fusing with a myriad
of sounds. "Shouf Balek" incorporates
traditional strings that interplay with rhythm
and voice, and "Beit Nuba" with mesmerizing
chants weaving between a persistent drum beat.
It all draws to a close with "Ferdowsi" where
percussive improvisations rise and fall
through a minimal soundscape.
Muslimgauze produce a raga music for the
technological post-cyber age. Shifting
cultures out of ancient history into the
current day, transcending those traditional
forms. "Citadel" has a voice of what is now
and perhaps what is to come. In these troubled
political times, peace through people being
unified in harmony whilst maintaining their
own strength and cultural identity is a vision
to strive towards.
