Fun'Da'Mental - Erotic Terrorism
Review by Scott Pfeiffer
Fun'Da'Mental's album Erotic Terrorism is a masterpiece that pushes the boundaries of traditional music. With its fusion of hip-hop, electronica, and world music, the album takes the listener on a journey of self-discovery and social commentary.
The album's title track, "Erotic Terrorism," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its powerful lyrics and hypnotic beats. The song explores the intersection of sexuality and politics, challenging listeners to think critically about how power dynamics affect our intimate relationships.
Other standout tracks on the album include "Ja Sha Taan," which features Punjabi vocals and a driving beat, and "Mother India," which samples a speech by Indian revolutionary Bhagat Singh. Each song on the album is a unique and thought-provoking exploration of different themes, from colonialism to spirituality.

About Fun'Da'Mental
British-based multi-cultural group formed in August '91 for London's annual Notting Hill Carnival, drawing on Indian, Afro-Caribbean and Afro-American musical forms but highly politicized, often with a distinctive Islamic or civil rights twist. Initial line-up consisted of Bad-Sha Lallaman and Aki Nawaz (properly Haq Qureshi) who went under the stage name of Propa-Gandhi, Man-Tharoo (who later went under the name of Goldfinger) and DJ Obeah (who would be replaced by Dave Watts). The least convincing colour on their style palette would be rap; their originality lies in their manipulation of soundbite and sample. Often witty, they mix samples of the classical instruments, the metamorphosed motif of the train whistle from the Hindi film Pakeezah, Pakistani village music and filmi (Indian film music), all woven into a patterns of flavours. They are also influenced by the spirit of punk.
By now Fun-Da-Mental comprised Amir Ali (lyrics), Aki Nawaz (music), Inder Matharu (lyrics/percussion), Dave Watts (additional samples) and Count Dubulah (bass/guitar). Lallaman and Goldfinger left August '93, replaced by MC Mushtaq and Hot Dog Dennis. They marked their arrival in style with a debut double album Seize The Time '94 on Beggar's Banquet/Nation, as well as a new stage name for Watts, now working as Impi-D.

With every breath,
I am intoxicated,
Intoxicated by:

The Red One,
The Friend of the Red Saint.
The jungles, the mountains, the oceans they all say,
They say: Ali! Ali! Ali!
Solve my difficulties, Mushkil Gusha Ali! (Remover of Difficulties Ali!)
Break it O mystic, tear it O mystic, take care of the pieces of my heart, O mystic.
But for every difficulty, any pain that comes my way,
He never stops praying on my behalf!
The Red Saint.
The Red One.
The Friend of the Red One.
Ali! Ali! Ali!
With every breath:
Ali! Ali! Ali!
