Men in Burka

“Men in Burka is the latest project of Kamran Khan “the Ramadan-Dadaist from Denver” who is best known for his work with indie art electronic group Modern Witch. The mind of electronic aficionado, Strange Powers and popular contemporary visual artist & fellow Modern Witch member Mario Zoots complete the trio. Men In Burka are the sultans of making an impression on your mind. Your brain softly drum-smokes with subtle aromatic tealeaves and dried fruits over an unrecallable time span. Such stickiness is powerful arsenal in an online music world overflowing with content upon content. This is real intelligent danceable world music heralding from the USA. Bounce music waves lap explicitly upon Mesopotamia/Indus Valley soundscapes and god’s soldiers who contemplate the decade’s affrays. Samples of gunfire, riot, upheaval and unrest litter the tracks intermittently and constantly. However, this is not the typical reflection of cultural fusions, mismatches and socio-economic observations made by many artists today. This is a direct call out to the western world to pay attention to the complex power struggles, the tribal wars, the equality politics and the involvement of superpowers in the regions of the Middle East – particularly Pakistan.” -Mishka NYC
