Cult ’80s productions receive vast vinyl reissue.
Vinyl-On-Demand, the German reissue label that specialises in industrial and avant-garde rarities, has announced a monster 10-LP boxset of material by the late British producer known as Muslimgauze.
With the title Chasing The Shadow Of Bryn Jones 1983-1988, the boxset comprises all of Jones’ material from those years and includes a 208-page book, a poster and a CD. It’s due out in April.
Jones died in 1999 but made records in the hundreds in his lifetime, chiefly influenced by conflicts in the Muslim world. Drawing on Eastern and Western styles, his music as Muslimgauze navigates a unique space between ambient, techno, noise and ethnographical field recordings. Last year FACT picked 1987’s Coup D’Etat as one of the 100 Best Albums of the 1980s. [via RA]
