#abdullarashim

I found these words today about Abdulla Rashim

“With a mythical appearance rooted in the wet Botswana trails, Abdulla Rashim is a modern day mystery. Born and raised in deep hardship, he developed a rare disease that keeps the mind in a constant state of fever and confusion. With his senses and body maturing, he became a burden to his tribe, and as a result, he was cast out at the age of 15. Deeply enraged and frustrated due the constant state of permanent psychosis, the young Abdulla roamed the nearby tribes in search for a cure to his state. After many failed attempts of healing, he finally seeked help in the tribe of Bangwato, where a local witchdoctor tried to exorcise his demons by scalping his head. During his convalescence, Abdulla could not be seen or heard by anyone, and at the age of 17, he was declared dead. 23 years later, Abdulla was seen by locals setting up a studio in Botswana, apparently having found a cure in the hypnosis of the ”4/4.”

Summer approaching... lots of new releases and a lot going on. More to come of course! This summer seems promising.

Here is something from Sweden. Abdulla Rashim made it this month with his debut album released on Northern Electrics (2x12" vinyl, CD, cassette and digital)

He's been rocking the scene for a while with releases with Prologue, Semantica and his own label. But this artist is covered with mystery somehow. His style fits perfectly with the deep dark trippy Mediterranean and central Europe techno wave. For me it was love in first sight.  

The album... diverse, interesting, experimental. I did highlight some tracks. ''Path Inwards'' a trippy, ambient piece, a true path inwards, ''No borders'' opens the gates to the universe, ''Moral Blinds'' the peak, loved ''Afar Depression'' 's atmospheric elements within techno lines. Through ''No God'' he brings us down to theta brain waves and makes his way to the exit with ''Unanimity''.
