Last night I went out and saw THIS group from Siberia - two of them looked like Asiatic Siberians; both did throat singing (amazingly beautiful! seeKLF's 'chill out'), and one was on electric guitar (superbly played!) and the other also playing two-stringed traditional bowed-instruments. the bassist looked like a saracen, and the percussionist looked like Rasputin! It was totally amazing, and the atmosphere was transcendental!

Damn, I should have known that with a Thread Title like 'Siberian Rock Music!', no-one would read it! Probably thinking either it'll be crap or that I'm making things up again!

Ah, yeah, Alaska! I thought you were in the USA, so when you said you were near Siberia, you had me thinking ;) I would love to be able to throat sing -- it was amazing to be just 5 feet away from the person doing it.

I've just been through Siberia and in the Buryat area around icy lake Baikal near Tuva..
Its a beautiful & deeply religious place.
The performers I went to see in Mongolia did some throat singing and the tones achieved were amazingly resonant- felt like their soul was going through me.....//
I'm pleased you're enjoying these 'eastern' ways... I've just had a fix and I'm going back out there for more in a few months. The nomads of Mongolia are great people to spend time with. I'd like to visit Nepal sometime too and meet the Himalayan communities and experience their culture and wonderful landscape

Dunno about Siberian Rock and Roll, but I got some really nice Siberian vodka, "Altai" last week. Very pure, smooth drink with no burn and a subtle taste.
