About this item

Korlakang are four young friends from Thonburi, the quieter, canal-laced western bank of Bangkok, where temple bells and river rhythms shape everyday life. Formed from a bond that stretches back to high school hallways and shared university years, the band came together with a sound rooted in Thai traditional music and the warm haze of psychedelic rock.

Their debut 7-inch, "Samong Sai", is that rare thing: a record that seems to arrive already aged, carrying the grain and warmth of a forgotten 70s pressing. It seeps in slowly, sweet and chill, like sound faintly coming through a neighbour's window. The kind of music that makes you stop what you're doing just to hear a little more of.

Limed copies. 

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: If you've ever been to Thonburi, this will make total sense. A dusty Thai-psyche-funk nugget that instantly transports you to the balmy, and calmer climes of Bangkok (yes they do exist!). Enchanting and effortlessly beautiful.
