Tenth and last song of my sixth album "World" (full album here: • Barthélémy Dworkin - W... )
I discovered this song a few years ago on 9Gag (yes, really), and I was blown away. Mainly because it was my first encounter with Mongolian throat singing techniques (khoomei), but also because the song uses the main codes from Mongolian, Chinese and Western music.
I really wanted to have it on my album since the beginning, but to be honest it was the most difficult song to cover: Mongolian language is harsh but the lyrics were hard to find (I had, like, two years of unsuccessful reasearches until one day I found the oral transcription (probably via Turkish), and then th original lyrics in cyrillic a few months later. Chinese language was a hell of a challenge, and the result is still bad. I even found wrong Chinese characters in the official lyrics I had in hand and was forced to correct them!
But the throat singing was a two years journey of hard trying, and the results still make me want to improve myself and learn other techniques. What a challenge this cover has been!
