Y/Our Music immerses itself in Thai musical expression, from traditional music to labor songs, from classical pop to urban indie, spanning generations and locales. From the noisy streets of Bangkok to the arid fields of Isan, nine musicians reveal the juxtaposing environments that influence their sounds: the hands that play traditional instruments amid red dust clouds; the work songs hummed among rice awaiting harvest; and the indie music born of concrete basements. While inhabiting very different worlds, the musicians are united by a similar passion: to bring their artistic aspirations to the fore and survive outside the mainstream.
