Soundtrack to the animated shortfilm On Hold by Delia Hess.

"A young woman is stuck in a never ending telephone queue... a surreal episodic shortfilm about the absurdities of urban life and the feeling of paralysing stagnation."

On Hold

Recorded in GuangXi - two recordings, one crossfading into the next. 1. Cicadas and boats along the Li river. The low drum is leading a procession through the street;  2. Two street musicians performing "Shang Ma" （上马） behind a house later that evening -  an action packed horse riding tune. I quite like the mimicked sound of a horse played on the erhu at the end. 

Guangxi - cicadas, boats & Shang Ma!

The Art of Dying: Sounds from the Mountains of Sulawesi. Known for their elaborate funeral ceremonies, mortuary practices, and cliffside burials, the Toraja of Sulawesi (Celebes) also make beautiful music. Here's a brief selection of Torjaja fiddle and flute music, and a song or two, culled from field recordings by the amazing Dana Rappoport, Aural Archipelago and others. You''ll also hear a backing track of lush regional forest soundscapes featuring a wide variety of exotic bird species and more.
