Kink Gong is back with his unique take and reinterpretation of the music he's been recording and documenting for years in the South East Asian highlands.
Zomia Vol.1 takes the conceptual idea of Zomia, proposed by James C Scott in The Art of Not Being Governed: The Anarchist History of Upland South East Asia, to construct its very own mythological soundscape inspired by a semi-utopic region where state rules don't apply. Zomia might be (almost) gone but Kink Gong is keen keep its spirit alive by releasing a series of albums celebrating the region's quasi mythological features.
