Comments for Namtchylak, Sainkho, Out Of Tuva

These are the comments from the Internet tuva faq: Mostly pop songs incorporating traditional folklore and some traditional techniques, the liner notes explain that these are recordings that Sainkho had made with no plans to release them. Muscovite Artemy Troitsky thought that they should be released and put them on this dkic, along with three new songs. The songs are generally less esoteric than other Sainkho works and they are far more accessible to the casual listener. The featured instrument is her voice, and the accompaniment varies from somewhat bare percussion to a large orchestra to synthesized washes. I like this disc more than the other Sainkho ones I''ve heard, and if I were to recommend a first Sainkho album to newcomers, this would be it. As an added bonus, the insert artwork is pretty good; the cover is a stunning photo of Sainkho''s face and shoulders superimposed in front of a bright blur of colour. The liner notes are good but too brief; only some of the songs have accompanying notes listing the details of the recording. 13 Tracks, total length 40:30.
