just had to clear it up that most of it isn't "arabic voice", it's broken
up "despoolie" which is a type of farsi (persian, iranian, etc.)
trust me, im the brown guy.
"Vampire of Tehran" is really good - Distorted beats, chopped up bits,

definitely, a good release, more inaccesable compared to his other works

actually he just recently started doing the "im going to run this shit
through so much distortion it sounds like your sound system is gonna blow"
act. i think at times it works out very nicely, with still keeping the
hypnotic rhythms which he knows so well, but other times the tracks just
don't go anywhere.

it's kinda expensive but very very worth every penny because you end up
with all the releases that are really hard to find. if anybody wants a
good starter go get "syrinjia", it's on 12" only, and i think it's one of
the best things he's done in years, and it just came out three months
ago...
