Shy Angels: Reconstruction & Mix Translation of Mad Man of God

Shy Angels: Reconstruction & Mix Translation of *Mad Man of God*

Artist: Sussan Deyhim & Bill Laswell

Release Date: February 15, 2002

This album reimagines Sussan Deyhim’s *Mad Man of God* through Bill Laswell’s visionary reinterpretation. Featuring ambient, downtempo and drum’n’bass textures, *Shy Angels* transforms classical Sufi poetry into a continuous 45‑minute sonic tapestry that fuses spiritual tradition with avant‑garde electronic soundscapes. Laswell’s production includes performances by Reggie Workman, Zakir Hussain, Glen Velez, and other collaborators on top of the original ensemble. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
