The Sound of Taiwan’s Tribesmen
Who are these tribesmen the cover speaks of? A record that raises many what, why and when questions.The confusing juxtaposing of Taiwanese villagers and the African savanah is smoothly continued on the record itself. Taiwanese melodies have been given the Daktari treatment with exotic electronic melodies backed by wah wah and cool percussion. “African” grunts and chants and electronically simulated atmospheric sounds provide just the right ethnographic angle.
