Album Notes & Community Reviews

Masterfully reviving 1960s Cambodian psych-rock traditions, 'Escape From Dragon House' infuses rhythmic global styles with warm, energetic psychedelic pop. The project relies on authentic Khmer vocal styling blended seamlessly with Californian surf and garage rock instrumentation. It serves as an incredibly uplifting and historically appreciative cross-cultural musical synthesis.
