Sound Travels to Southeast Asia this week on a junket, searching for vintage sounds for the noontime spot. And today we linked up with another Sublime Frequencies release, Singapore A Go-Go!, for another tasty slice of ethnographic funkiness.
This time, the sound is definitively 60's, beat and pop sounds from an area of the world challenging long-standing beliefs that Chinese music can't swing. All of the tunes on this comp are dope, but I picked six of these shorties to fit today's Sound Travellers.
