Frank Rynne, an Irish-born producer for the Sub Rosa label, is a staunch advocate of the work and views of the late Moroccan painter Mohamed Hamri.
Rynne has produced recordings on both of the Master Musicians of Joujouka albums on Sub Rosa, the compilation Moroccan Trance Music, Vol. 2: Sufi, and the 10% File Under Burroughs compilation. His best known productions were recorded in the mid-1990s for the Joujouka Black Eyes and Boujeloud releases by the Master Musicians of Joujouka.
He is listed as contributing vocals on an album called Sweet Hunger by an Irish group called Baby Snakes. He has also performed onstage in the mid 1990s with fellow music promoter Joe Ambrose in an "experimental hip hop" outfit called The Islamic Diggers.
In 1992, Rynne participated in documenting "The Here to Go Show" in Dublin, Ireland. This show, which included an appearance by Mohamed Hamri, was documented in the film Destroy all Rational Thought, directed by Rynne and Joe Ambrose. The show celebrated the works of William Burroughs and Brion Gysin, as well as the Tangier Beat Scene. Ambrose and Rynne worked with Aphex Twin collaborator Stakker on the movie Joujouka (1997). The same year, Rynne also collaborated with writers Terry Wilson and Joe Ambrose in authoring Man from Nowhere: Storming the Citadels of Enlightenment With William Burroughs and Brion Gysin.
His production of the Master Musicians of Joujouka album Boujeloud was released in 2006.
