This Blog is a collection of my recordings and collectings from travelling around Asia...
expect lots of obscure instruments, strange sounds, electric and acoustic instruments, obscure records and tapes, and any other sounds i find on the road.
Please be Patient, as the site is very content heavy, the Soundcloud streams are a bit slow to load...

Train Market Drum Jam

My dear listeners, sorry for the dearth of postings in recent months, have been rambling around Cambodia, and unfortunately, while there is plenty of music around, and I've invested plenty of hours listening to dusty tapes in markets all over, I haven't come across anything worth sharing...
Not to say it doesn't exist, just that the gems are not as readily available as they are in Thailand...
Setting up shop in Cambodia soon... Been studying, and will continue to learn Khmer, and will continue digging for recorded material, as well as interesting rural musicians...
Expect tasty Cambodian tunes somewhere down the line.
In the meantime though, enjoy this video of one of my closest friends, and excellent drummer Colin Fahrner (featured earlier in this very blog), playing at the Train Market in Bangkok with some killer percussionists from the Tiger & Maekong Drum Shop
Also coming very soon is more Vinyl rips of fresh scores in BKK... so stay tuned much love...
