Pone Yape is one of the breakout artists of this year with his nostalgic pop song "Ma Myint" - a heartbreak tune set in the 80s. Over the past six months, you can hardly go anywhere in Myanmar without hearing this song. Bands cover it at bars; drivers hum it on their taxis; friends sing together at any gathering with a guitar. This guy has just recently turned 21 and he's already a star.
But there is a maturity in all of his songs which, I think, came from his mother who raised Pone Yape with music from the 70s and 80s. He grew up listening to legends like Sai Htee Saing and Kaiser. In both "Ma Myint" and "Nya Ngat Nae Lu Pyor Ta Youk", he tells compelling stories with witty lyrics which reminds us of the Myanmar songs from the past. At the same time, he loves hip-hop. He raps in songs like "Kite" (featuring Nyein Than Thar) and "Kant That Nal Myay" (featuring Htoo Myat Zaw). And you can feel the R&B/Lo-fi groove in songs like "Eain Ko Pyan Tot Mal". As a result, his songs give us a taste of modern nostalgia.
For this jam session, Pone Yape brought three fellow young artists - Htoo Myat Zaw, Nyein Than Thar and San Shari (drums) - who were all around his age. And we decided to compliment their youth by bringing in experienced musicians like Jazz guitarist Myu Htoi Awng, Blues bassist Aung Khant (Romance House) and drummer Lyan Lyan (who also jammed with Square Lake Pirates). It is a beautiful collaboration between talents from different generations. And we are truly excited for this one.
There is a total of 5 songs in this jam session (all shot in 4K). Enjoy!
