Our Take

Step aside, Pitchfork pals, because we've stumbled upon a gem that even the most hipster of hipsters would struggle to pronounce - VARIOUS ARTISTS' "Funeral Gongs Ceremonies In Ratanakiri / Cambodia." Yes, you read that right, funeral gongs. And no, this isn't some morbid goth album, but rather a surprisingly uplifting compilation of traditional Cambodian funeral ceremonies.

From the moment the first gong reverberates through your speakers, you know you're in for a unique listening experience. The haunting melodies and intricate rhythms transport you to a land where death is not mourned, but celebrated with a cacophony of sound and colour. Each track is a stunning display of cultural heritage and musical craftsmanship, showcasing the beauty and complexity of Cambodian funeral rites.

But don't be fooled by the sombre subject matter - this album is anything but a downer. The energy and vitality of the performances are infectious, leaving you tapping your feet and longing for more. Whether you're a seasoned ethnomusicologist or just a curious listener looking to expand your musical horizons, "Funeral Gongs Ceremonies In Ratanakiri / Cambodia" is a must-listen.

So grab your headphones, pour yourself a glass of something strong, and prepare to be swept away by the mesmerising sounds of VARIOUS ARTISTS. Trust us, you won't regret it.
