    Hive Mind Records are absolutely thrilled to have worked with Honiunhoni to bring you a vinyl version of Jingul by Ustad Noor Bakhsh. The album contains 6 exclusive solo tracks unavailable anywhere else.

    Here's what the critics have said about this beautiful and important album:

    "Jingul was recorded live at sunset, and the poignant melancholy of dusk permeates the music...It’s the kind of music that leaves you grasping for the spiritual and indefinable, that burrows into your soul and glows there"
    Vrinda Jagota, Pitchfork

    "Inspired by birdsong and playing the obscure zither-like benju, the 78-year-old is enjoying a surge in global popularity"
    Sadiya Ansari, The Guardian

    "Like many master musicians, Bakhsh appears completely at ease with the benju, the technical flourishes and melodies flowing out of him in an endless stream of sound. Through repetition and speed his performances can lean towards the ecstasy of Sufism and qawwali."
    Chris Menist, Songlines

    Includes unlimited streaming of Jingul via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

about

Noor Bakhsh loves the jungle near his house, where he spent years practicing in solitude. Once in the jungle, he would tune his Benju to the sounds of the birds and this composition is based on how he hears the songs of the Jingul bird.
