hope everyone will forgive the length between postings, but i had my hands full for a little, whilst relocating from cambridge, massachussetts to bangkok. now that i'm here (and with access to cassette & scanning technologies!), i'm very excited to find all sorts of new sounds to share! let's hear first of all from maestro saman kanchanaphalin! an instrumentalist in the famed suntaraphon big band and a ศิลปินแห่งชาติ (silapin haeng chat) or "national artist" of thailand, saman takes the opportunity with this album to return to his roots in "pleng thai doem", or classical thai art music. of course, years spent playing international dance styles seem to have left him with a timbral preference for the "ranat farang" or "western-style ranat".. that is, the marimba. very calm & beautiful record here, hope you enjoy!

It's not frequency, but quality that matters. Thanks as always.
great to have you back! bangkok, wow it's been 14 years since i was there, i hear lots of things have changed...
This is great, thanks! Sure you'll find some really far out music in Bangkok. A lot more interesting than Cambridge.
heh, actually i found loads of interesting music in & around cambridge through the years! (not much thai music, though)
Thank You for uploading this much variety of Thai music.
This sounds beautiful, very thankful and looking forward to being around this music.
I sure would like a reup for this if that's at all possible. Thank you very much!

thanks
robert

i have cried twice while reading your description.
robert
hi roberth!
thanks for you persistence.. new link is up now. sorry for the tears!
tears are always good. thank you so much. although i enjoy most thai music. folk,
classical and music of the kaen are my favorites. i will try to remember and come back and share my enjoyment of this one after i download and listen.
thanks robert
