It's summer, and that means it's time to get off your ass and do some traveling or - if you can't afford it - watch videos about it. Mon Khmer's latest video for new single 'Dreamers' will fly you over to Meghalaya in North East India, where you'll be led around by a wise little girl over sharp cliffs and challenging terrain. Brooklyn by way of Boston, founding member Hammarsing Kharhmar challenged Brooklyn cinematographer Russell Cramer to represent his roots for the piece, making way for an ambitious visual start to their new recordings. But it's [...]

It's been an awfully muggy week in Minneapolis, which makes the tropical nature of this song perfect. If you don't live in Minneapolis or even Minnesota, that's fine, because the song is also fantastic. In "Symmetry", Matt Scheiner, the man behind Tropic of Pisces, subtly incorporates synthesizers into the genre more broadly defined as 'world music'. You might normally here songs like this while taking a taxi to the beach on some tropical island. It's fun, light-hearted and makes you feel like you should be smiling while wearing a swim suit or linen shirt from Tommy Bahama's. Be sure to [...]

Brooklyn's rising four-piece Mon Khmer have commissioned friend and musical guru Karuna of Bumblebeez to remix the stunning track "Anniversary," from their recently released digital EP "Birthplace."

Lazy songs wiht a repetitive rhythm guitar beat. Bostonians Mon Khmer have released a self-titled debut EP. They moved to Brooklyn to carve a niche in the electronic shoegaze scene, with a jazz twist as their unique selling point. They sound awfully English for an American East band, incorporating bits of The Smiths and the latter day Cure. Vocalist Hammarsing Kharhmar has been spinning David Bowie records ad infinitum and he does a rather good job with his phrasing, but he hasn't quite got the power and depth of the Thin White Duke. [...]
