BANYEN, ANGKHANANG and PRITSANA
บานเย็น • อังคนางค์ • ปฤษณา

We continue this fun week with one of the weirdest tape from my collection. When I found it in a little shop, I was quite thrilled by the worn out cover: BANYEN RAKKAEN, ANGKHANANG KHUNCHAI and PRITSANA WONGSIRI, what a great team of luk thung and molam superstars! The tittle sounded somehow strange though: "molam international". Even if since the mid 70's modern molam sometimes incorporated some samples from western music (with no real interest for western music) this title sounded like there would be something surprising...

Those 3 singers are really famous, we heard of Angkhanang a few times already and Banyen and Pritsnana recorded many songs together. It's the first time I see them as a trio. I could have expected anything but not really that... 

 

Half an hour of a medley featuring some luk thung, some Bollywood "thai style" covers and some molam including one of my favorite form: lam phu tai. Here comes, the "international" touch, some heavy 90's electro "euro dance" and some western songs covers such as Lambada... If the voices are really nice, the mix with the music is particularly strange (even if sometimes it works). It's surprising to find those superstars involved in such project. Luckily this tape did not become the standard in Esan and could be seen as a strange experiment from the past... Weird isn't it?
