“You are a new experimental instrumentalist in the musical universe, an original musician… the new American Mozart”
“Your music.. is a fly on the wall..in the bedroom of chi, like a moist tongue welcomes the nectar. Inspires nectar flow… In divine service..a missing puzzle piece filled. Music healing to the wounded butterfly.”
“I truly love your music! Mystic Jazz is quite exactly what it is, and I greatly enjoy it!”
“I listened to your music ten years ago when I was still a teenager, It had an influence on my creative development.”
“I think he got me high! Best musical experience ever! Great artist!”
Gerald Van Waes. Psychevanhetfolk Review
“Dawoud has succeeded in bringing a group together with a rather improvisational rhythmical fundament (bass, some programmed rhythms or percussion) with a very individual sound. The style is partly with an often rather loose chill-out groove, a partly jazzy improvisation. There are improvisations with sitar and flute combined, or sometimes sitar and acoustic guitar on one track. There are talks with a spiritual or philosophical fusion spoken word element, (on Freedom it is as a more frustrated expression –here like a kind of dub hiphop fusion). The electronic sequenced grooves are also very attractive in a different, also groovy way.

Azhar Usman Review
“In a world where evil forces have effectively hijacked not only the public’s peace of mind but the very thing we call “religion,” it is truly heartening to find spirited artists like Dawoud who understand, experience, and live true religion through their art. The essence of all religion is spiritual connectivity with the Divine; who better than a contemporary Renegade Sufi to bring the classical mysticism of Islam to the modern world?”

“They intertwine together and at the same time move separately. The music is so beautiful and makes the experience so relaxing and refreshing in the world on free improvised music”

Kristin Parascondolo. Deadly Kristin Magazine Review
“Dawoud has a brand new album called “Renegade Sufi”, a great atmospheric album that fuses mystic jazz influences to chill out atmospheres and oriental instruments, like his magical sitar. If Jimi Hendrix played sitar, he’d sound like Dawoud!”
