My best memory: a
Mongol electro band: Sainkho NAMTCHYLAK. A woman singing with mongol
throat singing accents, a guy on a Mongol horsehead violin and a guy
on keyboard. They played kind of a psychedelic music. We were in front
of a big Gengis Khan statue. Nice trip! Then, the sky got darker and
darker, the band still making us fly, the wind more and more powerful,
like a ‘end of the world day’ you know. And baoum
Explosion of rain! It was great keeping dancing under the water still
moving to the beat of that crazy singer. Amazing experience. One of my
best ever. Huge moment of musical communion.

pure moments…

Here are some albums I bought at various rock concerts here in Shanghai. They’re all local bands, more than worth a try ! It’s barely legal to put them here for download, but it’s hard to find outside from China.. and if you feel like willing to buy the CD, send me a mail.

B&B folk songs with a guitar (not sure of the name!)
