”Acquire knowledge, it enables its professor to distinguish right from wrong; it lights the way to heaven. It is our friend in the desert, our company in solitude and companion when friendless. It guides us to happiness, it sustains us in misery, it is an ornament amongst friends and an armour against enemies.”
{ The Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him and his family and companions }
NIL AON DIA ANN ACH ALLAH AGUS IS E MUHAMMAD TEACHTAIRE ALLAH
" APPEAR AS YOU ARE , BE AS YOU APPEAR" - {RUMI }
Abdullah Hamzah aka"Celt Islam" is an English convert to Islam, Sufi and a member of the northern British alternative dub/breaks outfit "Nine Invisibles " and " Analogue Fakir " . Celt-Islam uses a fusion of music from Dub/Electro/Drum andBass and collaborates it with Islamic/world grooves to create a Dub driven dance crossover.
Celt Islam works with many musicians and artists including Inder Goldfinger { Ian Brown- Natacha Atlas-Apesta} Mick Reed { 1919 , Ship of fools and Nine Invisibles } , Bongo Chilli , D Bo General and DanMan { Iration Steppers }.
Celt Islam has just released his track Time/Space on 12" { Kritical Mass records}and appeared on many compilations from the Buddha Lounge { Shisha Soundsystem }, Sounds from the big town { Chocolate fireguard } and is about to release the track Dervish on the new Cafe paradiso: Park Lane Presents Luxury Chilled Grooves compilation compiled by Shisha Soundsystem which will be out on major release and will be available in all major record shops world wide.
Celt Islam creates music in quite a diverse range of styles and genres. He produces Sufi inspired Global Grooves to create a sometimes Meditative Dub that transfixes everybody who comes across it, to Electro-Dub driven Drum and Bass to satisfy the dance world.
The only analogy that could be drawn to similar artists is that to Mercan Dede but only in terms of concept…Sufism…whereas the sounds, image and distinction of musical styles between the two could not be further apart.
Celt Islam is probably best known to date for his work in the Sufi-Dub genre which he is probably alone in trying to create and to help define as a sub-genre. He does so in collaboration with some respected names such as Inder Goldfinger, tabla player for Stone Roses legend, Ian Brown’s band and Natacha Atlas and Dawoud Kringle who has recorded and performed with the likes of Lauryn Hill.
Celt Islam’s Sufi-Dub work has appeared on some best selling compilations including 2 by UK global music tastemakers Shisha Sound System. Offers are currently on the table from other tastemakers and labels for licensing of his works for compilations.
He is also beginning to gain greater exposure in the UK as Radio 1 DJ’s like Bobby Friction and Pathaan make his music a regular feature on their shows.
Celt Islam also has some remixes under his belt for the likes of Karen David and is currently working on a remix in collaboration with DJ UMB from Shisha Sound System for artists on the Swiss/Moroccan Barbarity label.
Celt Islam also has just recently released his anti war dub track " Gaza" which appears on the VIVA PALESTINA THE ALBUM compilation which features artists as Drew McConnell from Babyshambles, Lowkey, to name a few.
The Celt Islam Sufi Sample Loop package features the vocal talents of Bongo Chilli and Danman both of which are established artists from Jamaica now living in UK. Also, featured on the loop package is live percussion from Inder Goldfinger and Abdal Wahid Mursaleen both experts in Ethnic and oriental musicial instruments and provide some original loops made from Tabla and Dholak plus some rare recordings of Sitar loops by Dawoud Kringle aka The Renegade Sufi and Saz played by Sufi artist Mustafa Daood.
The Outsanding new album from Celt Islam. The album is titled Dervish and is a mixture of Heavy heavy basslines, dub step, dancehall and d+b wrapped up with a very dubby world music sound. Release date is 16th October 2009 on Urban Sedated records.
" When it comes to drum and bass Celt Islam is the only Muslim artist worth mentioning. Having consistently released quality material he is never afraid to venture into new areas. Heavily influenced by the sounds of Sufi mysticism and traditional Arabic and Asian music, Celt Islam (the name being derived from his racial and religious background) is in a world of his own.

"Iraq is a War.
Afghanistan is an Occupation.
Suicide-Bombing is a Terrorism.
Guantanamo is a Concentration Camp.
Detention without Charge is an Inquisition."
[ Shaykh abdal qadir as sufi ]
O Marvel! a garden amidst the flames.
My heart has become capable of every form:
it is a pasture for gazelles and a convent for Christian monks,
and a temple for idols and the pilgrim's Kaa'ba,
and the tables of the Torah and the book of the Quran.
I follow the religion of Love: whatever way Love's camels take,
that is my religion and my faith.
{ "Interpreter of Desires" by Ibn Al 'Arabi }

EID AL ADHA The radiant sun I see through my window smiling as it does, it gladdens my heart - a welcome harbinger, it lets me know that it's Eid ul Adha, subhanallah!
At once I see, in the vista of my eye this brotherhood of man, from near and far every colour and creed, I hear them cry - for this gift of Allah, - al hamdulillah!
I see hujjaj, resplendent in white arriving for Haj, a da'eem of Islam - one of the seven, and so it is writ, at the haram of Allah, al Baitullah!
A magnificent jewel, all gilted and in black swirling and swaying in the sea of white The Ka'bah, I see, for goodness sake - Allaho Akber, ma'shallah!
The tawaf of Ka'bah, round and round tiptoeing Safa and Marwah too, to Musdhalifah and beyond on top of Arafa', before Allah!
I see them stoning the Satan, in fact united in purpose and doing their farz For muslimeen, a symbolic act in the name of Allah, bismillah!
Blessed are those who are gifted with zabihat 'Eid Mubarak' n' tehniyaat to one and all
