The Wire (p.69) - "Here's music that's raucous and impassioned and nakedly fun from stem to stem."

Title Note

Molam is an ancient song form originating in Laos and the northeastern Thai region known as Isan. The name translates as "expert singer," and has a characteristic feature of the use of flexible melody based on the tones of the words sung. In recent years, contemporary Molam has retained few of the original elements of traditional storytelling, instead combing or alternating them within more modern pop styles. MOLAM: THAI COUNTRY GROOVE presents a broad cross-section of modern-day Lam styles, as well as some more adventurous pop hybrids. At the onset of modern-day Molam in the late 1960s, electric instrumentation began to replace extant folk instrumentation such as mouth organs and lutes. As this hybrid electrified sound began to take hold, some groups began experimenting with new rock-based production techniques and sound effects. Standout tracks like Chawiwan Damnoen's "Lam Plern Chawiwan," with its swirling organ grooves, come across as near psych-rock jams. Still others exhibit the influence of other cultures, as on the distinctly African styled percussion workout of Aungkana Kunchai's "Tai Salub Prama."
