Vlad Suppish - Garlands for Than Tao Mahaprom (Bangkok, Thailand)

from Sounds of the Year 2021 by Cities and Memory

/

about

Bangkok shrine dances reimagined by Vlad Suppish.

"Before making a reimagined version of the recording I've watched a few videos about Erawan Shrine and its deity - Than Tao Mahaprom.

"What caught my attention is the amount of offerings to it, especially garlands. Layers upon layers of them.

"Also layers of overpasses above the shrine. Spiritual sanctuary in the heart of large and busy city.

"My version is precisely that - layers upon layers of heavily processed original recording. No external sound sources were used.

"I hope that while listening to my composition, people will get some of the virtues from Than Tao Mahaprom - kindness, mercy, sympathy and impartiality."
