Peoples Colony No 1 — Muazzam Qawwali MP3 Download
Peoples Colony No 1 is a title that places qawwali explicitly in the urban Pakistani context — the colony, the residential neighborhood, the ordinary landscape of Pakistani city life rather than the shrine courtyard or the concert stage. There is something honest about naming a sufi devotional recording after a place that sounds like a post-office address. The sufi tradition has always insisted that the divine is accessible from wherever you are, and a qawwali collection named after an ordinary urban neighborhood makes that claim concrete.
Muazzam's Urban Qawwali
His best qawwalis are a phenomenal fusion of eastern and western music that took him beyond the usual horizons of regional fame. He is a greatly famed name in the art of qawwali within Pakistan's urban sufi music culture. iRulz hosts his complete collection — Various qawwali compilations and Ibadat Sufi Qawwalies Vol 71 represent related recordings from the same urban Pakistani devotional tradition.
