Album Notes

Rolling hill is a popular Asian Psychedelic Jam Band based in Japan. They are Shunsukei (Jaw Harp, Tuvan throat singing (khoomei)), Kajutarta Hill Okaer (Electric Guitar, Jaw Harp) and O-ta (Drums). The trio mixes sounds and styles of numerous genres and cultures to create their own unique sound that defies classification. Of course, the best way to experience Rolling Hill is to see them live but we worked hard to capture their sound and spirit on these recordings. All songs were performed live at Studio J in Tsukuba with no overdubs to get you as close to the band as possible.

If you have never heard of throat singing, it is a type of singing that originated in the Tuva Republic in southern Siberia where one singer can produce multiple, simultaneous notes (overtones). Very trance-like and meditative and sometimes other worldly. Originally practiced by herdsmen with their voices echoing off the mountains, Rolling Hill brings you throat singing with drums, jaw harp and electric guitar. Each song is a journey, we hope you enjoy the ride.
