" APPEAR AS YOU ARE , BE AS YOU APPEAR" - RUMI
Celt Islam convert to Islam and a member of the northern alternative "dub/breaks" outfit "CELT ISLAM SOUNDSYSTEM"and " The Nine Invisibles". Celt-Islam uses a fusion of music from dub/electro/drum and bass-breaks and collaborates it with Islamic/world grooves to create this dub driven dance crossover.
" 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. " Tawheed is Unity
