Al Gromer Khan - Divan I Khas (Visions of a Mogul Prince) (1984)


Previously on OPIUM HUM:
Al Gromer Khan - Utopia (1993) + Attar (1996)

Y'all. School just blew the fuck up in my face. Due to overconsumption of coffee and a bit of Adderall, I may actually be turning into an unfeeling, essay-writing machine. But I'm done for the day, so I'm off to the gym to blow off some steam, after which I will fall face-first into this beckoning, pillowy cloud of sitar, drum machines, and dated synths.

Track listing:
1. Visions Of Vilayat Khan
2. Hirubilal (Part 1)
3. Piz Pakiza
4. The Anahat Syndrome
5. Barhat Anga
6. Hirubilal (Part 2)
7. Zuban
8. Oiram Qarz

    Massive. A gorgeous come down that drifts through like an Eastern echo of Tinariwen. Monster post, thank you.

    Very hard to find release and one of the few beautiful and un-crystallized new age albums that everyone should own. Al is the penultimate mellow sitar player bar none!
