But here right now, I don't know, maybe I've got a bit too far out with this musical journey. Big smile

I'd like to tell here a little about my first "meeting" with the Chinese Lin Di and the band Cold Fairyland, which she was the leading member of, because even it happend about 15 years ago, it was such a great experience.
It happend one very warm summer day, and I think, I was searching for Chinese bands on my computer, but anyway, I found a concert with Cold Fairyland on a Dutch site with concerts from Paradiso in Amsterdam. And from the very first moment of this about 40 minutes concert, I was just entirely speechlees.
I wish my English was better to be able to describe what I saw, heard and felt because it was so great and moved me so much. This outstanding performance of black dressed musicians playing their mix of heavy and dark, like King Crimson (Red) influenced but yet Symphonic Prog, and Chinese Folk music, using among other instruments pipa, Chinese kind of acoustic (traditional) "guitar"/lute, and electric cello, adding Lin Di's very emotional and beautiful vocal. - That was almost love at the first sight.
Then, I must say, the video I saw of this concert was very well shut and edited, like a piece of art itself, and the sound quality on it was exceptional good - likewise on my computer speakers. 

At that time, I wrote music articles and reviews for a Danish Hi-Fi magazine so actually, I wrote a review of this concert, and I contacted Cold Fairyland for their releases - but that is another story. Smile

So, I have by now changed my OP to include South Asia - to be precise. Ok?

But it's greater with "South and Far East Asia", as it's more including than East Asia (according to Wikipedia) so, I've changed again my OP to that.

East Asia to me immediately connotes Chakutia, Kamchatka, Magadan Oblast, Sakhalin, Khabarovsk Krai, Primorsky Krai, Japan, Korea, Manchuria, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macao, and coastal China, not Southeast Asia and certainly not India! 

Of the few I know, two of my favorites are most definitely:
Cicada (Taiwan)
Jambinai (South Korea)

and maybe, SIU2 (Hong Kong) and Hai Qing and Batzorig Vaanchig & Auli from Mongolia

Let us continue our musical journey to South and Far East Asia, and see what that brings. 

We've just had a Japanese thread, and there's a Japanese blog so, no reason to include this country here.
- And like in the African thread, not all of the musicians have to be of Asian origin - as I see it.

My own harvest from this part of world is so far:

       L. Shankar  (India)  -  Song for everyone   (1985, Jazz Fusion)

       Trilok Gurtu  (India)  -  The Glimpse   (1996, Jazz Fusion)

       Garbarek & Khan (India/Pakistan) - Ragas and Sagas (1992, Hindustani Classical Music / ECM Jazz)

       Cold Fairyland  (China)  2005 Live  (2006, Progressive Rock)

       Cold Fairyland (China) Seeds On The Ground (2007, Chinese Folk Music / Progressive Folk)

       Lin Di & Cool Zone  (China) - Ten Days In Magic Land  (2003, Progressive Folk-Rock)

       Lin Di  (China)  -  Bride in Legend   (2004, Progressive Folk)

       Guruh Gipsy  (Indonesia)  -  Guruh Gipsy   (1977, Progressive Rock)


The countries, I mention, refers primarily to the origins of the music.

And I hope, you'll enjoy it! Smile
