2014 collection. Soundway's second foray into South East Asia is focused on North-East Thailand, the epicenter of Molam and Luk Thung Isan music. Hypnotic phin and khaen riffs, pulsing, electrified country rhythms and heartfelt vocals punctuate another journey into the lesser known reaches of 1970s Thai music. In this second volume of THE SOUND OF SIAM the focus is firmly on the music the sounds of north-east Thailand, or Isan and attempts to show how a genre evolved and developed from essentially an acoustic tradition with specific geographic roots, to one that started to incorporate other instruments and influences that reached out to the Isan diaspora around the country. The Sound of Siam 2 - Molam & Luk Thung Isan from North-East Thailand 1970 - 1979' features 19 tracks, many appearing outside of Thailand for the first time.
