The first volume in Sublime Frequencies' series of 'Molam'
releases took us on a journey through a lesser heard area
of Thai music, a kind of country folk music from the rural
northeast of Thailand which centres primarily on male and
female singers (Molam literally means 'master singer') and
the khaen (a bamboo mouth organ) and phin (a lute-like instrument).notes

Here we see the style diversify as it hits the 1970s and 1980s and
introduces the sound of synthesizers, drum machines and electric
guitars into the mix to create some truly bizarre fusion of styles,
but unlike the 'Thai Pop Spectacular' album also released this week,
this collection never really falls wholeheartedly into the pop sound.

Rather across this disc we get some truly astonishing vocal
performances, psychedelic break-led pieces (I'm pretty sure
Madlib would have a field day with the sample material on here)
and simple but affecting folk music that sticks in your head never
to be prized free

We're always going on about how good the Sublime Frequencies
series is but honestly this stuff is just about as good (and as diverse)
as it gets, with each release put together with love and deep respect
for the music while keeping a healthy irreverence and sense of humour
for all proceedings.

Fans of the crucial Nonesuch Explorer series and even the Finders
Keepers releases (Selda especially.) should check this out immediately.
