Voices [for solo voice]
*2025 stock. 190 copies limited edition* "Voices" is a project born as a live performance for solo voice and loop station. The study of tribal rituals of some primitive cultures has been the main source of inspiration for my work. As various anthropological texts affirm, shamanic rituals are not based solely on music produced by rhythmic instruments (rattles, tambourines and other percussions). It is often the shaman's sing that induces trance. He uses his own voice, producing guttural, hissing,…
Live At The Melkweg 25.9.87
100 copies. C60 cassette with improved master and fullcolor print on the cassette but original printwork. Los Angeles, September 1987. Savage Republic are in the middle of their first European tour when they land at Amsterdam's legendary Melkweg. What gets captured on eight-track tape that night is pure alchemy: tribal post-punk, cosmic surf, oil drum industrial and guitars droning like desert prayers.
Founded in 1981 by Bruce Licher and Mark Erskine in the underground parking garages of UCLA - …
Post-Asiatic: Lost War Dream Music
2007 release ** "After my recent trip to Asia, my interest in oriental music has definitely greatly increased and then this release fell into my lap... Serendipity or coincidence, I eagerly went through this double bill, listening to all the nuances and influences I could trace back to my trip or recognize the origin of... There is definitely a lot going on but sadly the recording quality didn't seem to have always been determining factor in the choice of material. The release is dubbed as a CD …
The Fog Of Transition
This album was inspired by some of my short trips, incursions to the lake Teletskoye (Altyn Kӧl - Golden Lake) in the Altai Mountains. Of all the indescribable beauty, what impressed me most was a fog flowing with streams down the wooded hills and cloaking the water glaze like a shroud.Foggy sunrises over the lake were not less (and perhaps more) magical than the twilight. The oriflamme of the day already made themselves felt, but the mind was still on the whirlwind sidelines and out of the vani…
Live at Pompeii
*200 copies limited edition* “Detraex Corp arrives on Sagome to deliver a heady journey through experimental rhythm and dub-informed weight and release with their new album ‘Live at Pompeii’. The album, much like its Carlo Gabriele Tribbioli created artwork, represents a journey, a collection of sounds and emotions, sequenced to share with us, the listener, a variety of experience, and of memory, which are at once familiar and other.
‘Live at Pompeii’ sets things off with the tone-setting ‘Tykes…

The Drowned World
2025 stock 1115 are an experimental kraut-rave-IDM duo consisting of grey and fehler kuti. The two met in Munich in 2015 and started jamming in fehler's kitchen in the Westermühlstrasse. Grey operates a virtual 808 drum machine, bass and organ synthesizer, while fehler kuti uses, loops and modulates his voice. Their performances are rythm heavy hypnotic jam sessions that range from noise soundscapes to techno like club raves. Imagine Dieter Moebius and The Residents attending a Hauka Cult ritual…
Tandoor Dog
*2025 Stock* "In 1998 Staalplaat and Muslimgauze were on a conquering spirit. Bryn Jones (1961-1999), the man behind Muslimgauze delivered new works, almost on a weekly basis and was more than happy to see them released straight away. Unlike others, Staalplaat was never shy to release larger works, lumping various works together, such as the 9CD “Box Of Silk & Dogs”. Allowing free reign in editing, the 4LP box set ‘Tandoori Dog”, contained the LP of the same name, which saw only eight out of the…
Mohammad Ali Jinnah
*2025 Stock* "Unsurprisingly for an artist as prolific and strident as Bryn Jones was, the flood of material he sent to labels and compatriots was not always carefully categorized. Also, sometimes he would be so eager to release material that if things didn’t happen fast enough he’d just send in another tape. And that circumstance is how you wind up with a fascinating oddity like Mohammad Ali Jinnah.Staalplaat has previously released, in 2002, the Muslimgauze album Sarin Israel Nes Ziona. While …
Jerusalaam
*2025 Stock* Jerusalaam plus the two extra tracks make up unused material from the Return of Black September sessions. The contrast, even for someone with as wide a range as Muslimgauze had, is stunning. The original Jerusalaam fits in with much of Bryn Jones’ classic work, with a heavy emphasis on hand percussion, bass-heavy distortion, sharply clipped loops, and the seething his of static. The two otherwise unnamed Return of Black September tracks, however, follow that album in taking a much m…
Speaking With Hamas
*2025 Stock* 'Speaking With Hamas' was compiled by Bryn Jones himself early 1997 and he thought it would be nice to include a new, previously unreleased track. In his words:"It's for people who don't deserve it". "A tourist asked Ali muhamad, a second-hand camel salesman, why camels look so dam supercilious. He replied the Arabs know 99 names for god. But only the camel knows the 100th."
Al Jar Zia Audio
If ‘Satyajit Eye’ (which is released at the same time on Staalplaat) only blinks at Indian culture, the album ‘Al Jar Zia Audio’ does this with both eyes open. It is known that Bryn Jones, the man behind Muslimgauze, looked further than the Palestinian conflict and used extensively the rhythms of India, Pakistan and other Eastern cultures. Like crossing borders in the bigger Islam regio, Jones takes whatever comes at hand and moulds into his own trademark sound – often imitated, never surpassed.…
Jebel Tariq
Jebel Tariq has strong hand drum beats throughout but still maintains a very moody feel. It was undoubtedly these very elements that lead Jeremy Keens to state it was"balanced between the ambient and beat sides" of Bryn's work. It goes beyond just these elements though. There are whispered voices changing to strong ululations, frequent flute"samples" and then the bass. There are parts where the deep throb of the electric bass element gives a very dub feel and then there is the use of acoustic ba…
Sulaymaniyah
*2025 Stock* “Sulaymaniyah is part of Staalplaat’s ongoing Muslimgauze archive series, masters originally submitted in 1997, then “replaced” by what became Vampire of Tehran released early in 1998. It was not uncommon for the prolific Bryn Jones to replace masters with what he believed to be a more fit release. Short of two tracks, “Fez Tishan” and “Hamas Pulse of Revenge”, this is Vampire of Tehran with nine additional, unreleased tracks. Because Sulaymaniyah was “replaced”, it was stored in St…
Jackal The Invizible
*2025 Stock* Listeners who know much of anything about Bryn Jones' work as Muslimgauze know that he was prolific in both his work and in the way he sent out his work to labels and other interested parties. Fittingly enough for an artist that feverishly productive and often taciturn to the point of frustration, he didn't tend to give much more information than handwritten track titles on the sleeve of a DAT. Why he would submit multiple copies of the same or similar tracks to those he worked with…
Muhammadunize
*2025 Stock* Recorded and mixed at Abraham Mosque, Manchester 1996, this is a re-release of Muslimlim 009, only C2 taken from stdc 001. Listeners who know much of anything about Bryn Jones’ work as Muslimgauze know that he was prolific in both his work and Muhammadunize, has what could be called a classic feel to it, with a very familiar blend of drones, string instruments, and synths, and varying percussion/break-beat patterns, in turn mixed with a number of hard-to-catch vocal samples. It's a…
Demo
Demo is much in line with Jones's 1980s recordings, a set of primitive percussion tracks assembled from hand drums, chimes and simple effects, and possessed of a coldly malevolent focus. The Wire
Original Cassette material from Bryns Jones home, Audio Restoration by Radboud Mens.

Return of Black September
The excellent Black September, a continuous, five-part, 68-minute epic, is as formidably competent as ever, although more for the brooding, surreal nature of its soundworld than for its grooves, which here sound almost subsidiary. The soul samples and restlessly evolving minor-chord kaleidoscopes that unfold throughout the work is prima facie evidence of a musician on a roll. Boldly named after one of the most notorious Palestinian terrorist organizations, the group which carried out the Israeli…
