Moby quote

March 22, 2010

“It just seems like musicians want to sell a few records and put out a perfume line, and I think it’s so sad that there are so many musicians who don’t want to change the world ……. Music has been so much more”.

Cambodian podcast

March 19, 2010

During our recent stay in Phnom Penh we met up with a master roneat player who teaches the children at CCAM. He helped me during the recordings and made sure that all the parts that were being played were correct. We spent some time together chatting about his family history in music and life during the Pol Pot years.  Listen to the podcast interview and hear him playing the roneat with another teacher playing the tro.

Just heard about a new film/documentary about the Killing Fields in Cambodia. Looks like a very interesting project called “Enemies of the people”  … check out there web site here.
