I play the 6 string, 12 string, and keyboard on my tracks.

I released 2 five track Ep's in the span of 2 days.

My entire philosophy with my music is capturing a moment/feeling, so I do

one take tracks
improvised lyrics
guitar and keyboard thought of right before recording

I would love for you guys to check out my EP "Wicked thoughts Vol 1"

Thanks for reading!

They are a folk rock band mixing rock and traditional Mongolian music, popular in the 2010s.

I was looking through my old videos the other day and found a live solo performance by Batubagen, their morin khuur (horsehead fiddle) player and khoomei overtone singer (a form of throat singing).

This was in 2023. At that time, he had already moved to Pasadena and quit the band.

I saw him at a Naadam in my area and he was so amazing. He performed Морин цэргийн магтаал (Ode to the Cavalry), Huhe Namjila (from their Baifang album), and a morin khuur tatlaga, I think Жонон харын явдал (The Gait of Jonon Khar).

I'm so glad I whipped out my phone at that time. Listening to the recording again really brought back those memories. Just pure unadulterated live vocals and his morin khuur playing and nothing else.

I felt bad for the guy because he came to the event from another country, stood around outside and waited for the entire day, and then went up on stage and performed for 7 or 8 minutes while the audience talked over him. And people paid more attention to Da Shan reciting some poem and hamming it up for the audience. (I hope he at least got paid...)

I've never seen anything about Batubagen doing folk music or solo performances, so I doubt I will get this experience again. It was a magical moment for me, just wanted to share.

I'm looking for a sort of folkpunk adjacent song.

I distinctly remember the lyrics "and they won't be singing my song in the morning time"

talkas about leaving town and having a half ounce of smack.

does anyone have any idea?
