Sublime Frequencies films, director in attendance (so you can blame him). Tell your friends. So they can blame you.
INDIA AT 78rpm
Folk and classical music in India through the lens of the largest private collection of 78rpm records and dusty ephemera on the sub-continent. Everything is connected…
MY FRIEND RAIN
Decay and rebirth and death through the endless Asian monsoon cycle. A collage of musical segments and tropical ambiance from Robert Millis and Alan Bishop. Well, mostly Robert Millis. As I said, you can blame him. Includes the Thai Blind Willie Johnson, complete with metal cup on the end of his three string pin. Magical. View a clip here.
PHI TA KHON: GHOSTS OF ISAN
A traditional Buddhist ghost festival from Thailand’s Isan province that features beautiful handmade masks, outrageous wooden phalluses, ceremony, ritual, dancing, and endless
music. View a clip here.
