Harappian Night Recordings provides working cover for Sayed Kamran Ali, a UK-based artist with connections to the whole Hunter Gracchus/Part Wild Horses Mane On Both Sides cabal. The Glorious Gongs Of Hainuwele beautifully conflates and confuses ethnic field recordings with contemporary rough-house string drone and otherworldly sonics, running across a series of settings populated by haunting Asian vocal transmissions, hallucinatory night-time field recordings, devotional ragas scored for bowed ethnic instruments ala Sun City Girls/Vibracathedral Orchestra/Uton and crude folk-primitive navigations of psychedelic overtone activity. Somewhere between the ethnic reportage style of Sublime Frequencies, the whole Sheffield elemental freak/drone scene and a peaking, proto-punk volume of the Nonesuch Explorer series, this is a fantastic set. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Harappian+Night+Recordings">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
