Request from Sabir Said for to play music from Indonesia and Malaysia

Surprise me with some cool eclectic sounds from these countries and am requesting to stay in Indonesia and Malaysia in that area on air for a while please!

Matt you are blowing my mind - this music all of it is so beautiful and only yesterday I was thinking of how sorry I am to have missed it for years. Thank you:)

Sabir -- you got it!

Thank you FUNNY SPACEGIRL! It's such an honor to share this music with the world...or whoever is listening.

I agree - I wish we could hear this stuff for an hour every week. It's drop dead gorgeous and takes me back to Asia.

Matt this takes all space girls back into a special galaxy where they float in tranquility.

How can I find out, not withstanding the fact I love all your music, when you will play exactly this mysterious exotic music again please?

I never know what I'm going to play. I just follow divine inspiration. I'm more of a cosmic fulcrum than a DJ. So I wish I could tell you, but I don't even know. I guess that's why it's best to be in the moment, yeah?

Guess I will float off to Youtube for another dose then unless you can suggest an easy accessible source please?

Request: would like to hear some stuff from Sublime Frequencies label

So far enjoying what i am hearing!

Whoa...that sounded so much like a didgeridoo...?

...but it's a human voice!

"Overtones" is right. Wow.

Bama -- right?!? Overtone singing is human didj without the digj.

First heard Tuvan throat-singing 30-odd years ago ("some of them very odd") when Hun Huur Tu visited Tucson.

But is this Tuvan?!? I know that Jim Blackwood is featuring them this week?

Ah...OK, thanks, Matt.

Love it.

John -- I remember that Huun Huur Tu. I got to go backstage and hang with them. What a treat!

I did too!

"Them" = KHOOMEI BEAT. Ugh.

They gave some impromptu instruction on throat-singing. Something I'd still give my eye-teeth to be able to do.

Isn't there a Mongolian (or Tuvan?) group that's been making a name for themselves in Folk Metal circles?

The Hu?

And of course Tuvan Throat inging isn't the only style. Cheron has played Quantum Tangle from Canada that also does throat singing.

*Singing

There's even a cowboy that did it...

Sorry, that first sentence was a train wreck, lol

Anyway, throat singing seems to be prevalent among many cultures, not just the Tuvan. :-D

Yes, Tuvans may have perfected it. But it's a human thang closely associated with shamanic practices...you should try it.

And the Tuvan metal band, or one of them, is Khoomei Beat.

I'm not sure but I think the very word "shaman" comes from Tengrism, the indigenous religion of the Mongols, Tuvans, Turkics, &c.

& thx Matt for "Khoomei Beat", shall look it up...

Changys Baglash is their new CD. I just got it from the UK, reviewed it, and put it in the KXCI library. Really good stuff.

Perfect music for "steppin'" out of a Saturday night.

Matt, thank you for another beautiful show... it makes me feel like everything is gonna be alright.

Hear, hear!
