We've finally reached a point where people around this world are testing the limits of what the instruments they grew up with are capable of. Record everything, even if we can't figure out where it goes or what it represents, scream it out to the stars... Music might be what outlives us all. It's the language that doesn't need to be explained. It just needs to be felt.

Born and lived in Taiwan for more than 60 years I never heard of this folk tune and rarely seen a music instrument like this. Both the tune and Sanxian music instrument are imported things I can tell you, no hoax at all.

[@WaywardTiefling]

What I find fascinating is how refreshing it sounds with the vibes from traditional instruments. You`ve earned a sub :) Looking forward to more music from you :)

[@Plankicorn]

I fell in love less than a minute in. Thank you for this masterpiece.

[@NaishiYT]

This is my new favorite song now- Nini is literally so talented😭

[@jejoookula5855]

Absolutely EPIC. Goosebumps all around. So proud to be Taiwanese. Stay strong out there my taiwanese brothers and sisters✊

When you're not quite sure if something is awesome or maybe kind of ridiculous then you have touched the true spirit of metal

[@voltage_cc1784]

For this song I will stick with awesome

[@audreayarose3755]

discovering folk metal is not just a european thing is my favourite discovery, seeing classics of culture being rejuvenated with passion in modern folk fusions is my favourite ! its soulful to listen to

[@hazardousmatter2]

I always like to see instruments from around the world, especially used in metal. This was awesome, keep it up,

[@randybrown8872]

Dude check out Wagakki Band if you haven't already.

[@hazardousmatter2]

@@randybrown8872 I have never heard of them before. I watched Homura and Akatsuki no Ito and really enjoyed that. Thank you.

[@randybrown8872]

Glad you liked it.

I am an American scholar of music. I own many instruments from across Asia - the Phin from Thailand, the Sitar of India, the Shamisen and Sanshin of Japan and Okinawa. I have learned to play them all, and now my gaze turns to the traditional musical instruments of China - the Guquin, the Sanxian, the Pipa, Yuequin, and Luiquin. I hope one day you will see my music on KZbin as I have seen yours, and I will be eager to see what new music you create! Respect and Honor to you!

[@SoDopeStavi]

Wow! From Reddit Live to having your own professional music videos. Awesome work, Nini!

Wow me all the way in Africa hearing music my ancestors never knew existed. The internet is good in so many ways..... From throat singers to this. I love metal in all it's forms🔥

[@carlyle418]

I love folk metal and I'm very much enjoying your contribution to the genre. Keep up the good work!

[@seaurchinhead6309]

I'm a Korean who lived at Taiwan for over 6 years. I miss this beautiful country and their culture so much, and your music just makes me want to go back more and more.

[@000-eg4sr]

Молодец Нини, классная музыка и видеоряд. И сама умница и красавица приятно смотреть и слушать. Здорово что весь мир достает из Дедовых сундуков культуру своего Народа, Родовое наследие!!!❤

[@ROCKhardRICHARD69]

Thank you. Its rare in the west to see Asian people go beyond the stereotypes. I was labeled the nerd and the math kid and everything basic you could think of. But im a metal head. I love music that could make me feel. And to see someone who looks like me perform it on traditional instruments is so so so wondeful. THANK YOU

[@NiniMusic]

Thank YOU 🙏🏼

[@jeffballard7080]

This song is awesome, looking forward to seeing the video.

[@This_Is_Actual]

I have never heard Taiwanese Folk music (or metal) until now and its awesome, I'll happily support such proud people! Keep it up

[@Davivd2]

If you have not heard metal before start with the Rust in Peace album by Megadeth. Master of Puppets by Metallica. Vulgar Display of Power by Pantera.

[@Petaurista13]

@@Davivd2 better Judas Priest. Or Led Zeppelin as it's hard rock not metal but metal was born from hard rock.

Like it so much! Everything is pretty good: I got goosebumps from the music, the visual picture is also on the level, perfectly complements the music. Thanks for sharing your creativity!

[@KatherineOrho]

❤ I love metal from around the world, in many languages, with instruments I've never heard of. This video is fabulous. So cool! Thanks!

[@NiniMusic]

Glad you enjoyed it! Many thanks 🙏🏼

[@Lustrum0005]

I love your blend of folk with metal.. it's perfectly mixed too, the acoustic guitar is calming and haunting, and the metal music in the back ground is not over powering the song, I found my self hypnotized by the acoustic guitar then all of a sudden I am head banging to metal beats. 1:41

Always like to see creative performers in popular music, so much better than today's mainstream pop.

Wow! Wagakki band was up there for my top music and then boom Nini brings her magic of instrumental! Really love the style! ❤

[@bx3556]

I don't know why but various folk and classical music when mixed with metal makes amazing results.

[@JasonBenesh]

I have a theory, but it's long-winded and not that interesting, so I'll spare you.

[@Sars_007]

@@JasonBenesh oh cmmon, tell us on short please

[@Xarosai]

It's just because metal makes everything else better! lol

[@JasonBenesh]

@@Sars_007 Okay, the shortest version I can do: The blues became rock n roll through people like Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Little Richard, etc. but it became a cultural phenomenon through white American southerners like Elvis. As it moved out of the American south (ignore the Chicago blues--that was African Americans from the south who had relocated) into the rest of America it lost much of the African part of the blues and became more aligned with European-derived musical traditions. Then it got filtered through English musicians who loved rock n roll but didn't have much cultural understanding of it and we get the Beatles and the more blues-happy folks like the Stones and Clapton. Again--further removed from African elements and even American elements. Then slightly later, when metal is born with Black Sabbath, the blues element of rock music is pretty subdued and European classical elements fill in the void. Ever since then the trend has been more dramatic and less bluesy. The European classical music fuses with it pretty naturally.

@@JasonBenesh Sister Rosetta Tharp was a Gospel singer ,who played a electric guitar Gospel is a precursor for Rock & Roll What's wrong with Chicago Blues? With out Muddy Waters, Little Walter , Etta James & Chuck Berry there wouldn't bd any Rock & Roll

[@wilddoguk]

Going to absolutely honest, never ever thought about Taiwanese music. After havening listened to this, I'm happy to learn a little bit more about your people! Thank you for being you!

[@SerpentbreeD]

Check out Chthonic if you want. They're a bit heavier on the metal elelement but they use a lot of Taiwanese folklore and history.

[@Tiree2011]

@@SerpentbreeD A bit heavier? That is the understatement of the year. Chthonic was just added to my metal and screamo play lists.
