    the sound of universe, the music of soul, the resonance of cosmic interplay. very similar to Hindus chanting of the sacred sound '' OM'' which is considered to be the sound emerged at the time of birth of the universe.

    Check out up coming Inner Mongolian band HANGGAI - just released their debut album 'INTRODUCING HANGGAI' http://www.last.fm/music/Hanggai “distills everything powerful about Mongolian folk music and makes something new from the ingredients…transcendently powerful music that anyone from anywhere can understand.” (Pitchfork) “so entrancing or just downright enthralling that I just can’t imagine why the tradition ever fell out of fashion… charming, raucous, brilliantly jubilant and a breath of fresh Mongolian grassland.” (World Music Central) “Hanggai are a particularly exciting prospect” (Froots) "their melodic, often mournful songs at times echo the sturdy charm of Celtic balladry." (Guardian) "Their debut album is a delight...'Flowers' is country and eastern, while 'Haar Hu' could be the grassland's 'Scarborough Fair'. While Beijing busts a vulgar gut to Westernise, Hanggai update tradition with elegance." (Observer)

    Please ban social_name I'm sick ogf all the recommendations for himself, Lee Feldman. It would be offensive to recommend that often even if the music was good. This member is just abusing the listeners on Last.fm. He does not seem to care how incredibly off topic he is either. I doubt he even knows what throat singing is.
