What do people think of Muslimgauze? Those that have heard of him of
course.

I have a bunch of his stuff and I can't say that I like the music/sound
of it all. I bought it because I thought the guy was doing something
interesting with middle eastern music. I know its important stuff but
honestly this is the only music that has the power to make me literally,
nauseous. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing. The paring of
distorted dissonant rhythms inside of middle eastern drum patterns is
dizzying.

The funny thing is the guy is some British dude with a highly pro-Islam
rap that would make look some of these Islamicists here in Turkey look
like Mr. Rogers.
