The Astrioasia Crown & The Dusty Apsara Breaks is an instrumental album rooted primarily in Cambodian musical heritage, shaped through a modern, global lens.
As a Cambodian artist, this project is a personal fusion of ancestral sound, lived identity, and contemporary production.

Traditional Cambodian melodic sensibilities — echoing instruments such as the khim, roneat-inspired textures, and flute-like motifs — are blended with dusty rhythms, deep bass foundations, and Western-influenced beat culture. The result is a soundscape that feels ceremonial yet street-level, ancient yet current.

The album draws inspiration from Apsara symbolism, royal and spiritual imagery, and the quiet strength of Cambodian culture, while openly embracing influences from other parts of the world. Rather than imitation, this is interpretation — honoring roots while allowing them to evolve.

Production-wise, the focus remains on space, clarity, and mood. Minimal arrangements, steady mid-tempo grooves, and atmospheric reverbs create a hypnotic continuity across the project, making it ideal for immersive listening, visual storytelling, and cinematic contexts.

The Astrioasia Crown & The Dusty Apsara Breaks stands as a cultural bridge — Cambodian at its core, global in its expression.

Jazzy instrumental, horns, feeling of running out of time. Joyful, with a feeling of a jazz jam session.

Breakout are delivering the much anticipated follow-up to their huge afro funk version of “Planet Rock”. “Lyve Wire” is an equally strong and hard-hitting Breakout original. A heavy but catchy dancefloor smasher. Backed by the Japanese exclusive “Funky Goofball”.

“The funky German funk posse that recently smashed it with their version of Planet Rock come again with two storming original cuts that keep the funkified energy of their previous release and add some serious dancefloor pressure. Lyve Wire’s the choice cut – horn-fuelled and raring to go: a nu funk bomb!” – Fat City (Manchester)

(Juno Records)

" Voodoocuts sacrifices a chicken to the remix/mash-up loa resulting in Git Fonky’s crazy cool latin-garage stomp"
(Monkeyboxing)
