Oidupaa Vladimir Oiun is a legend & cultural institution in Tuva. In the late 1960's, he was seen as a threat by the occupying Russian forces & cast as a kind of Charlie Manson character for singing protest songs. Falsely convicted on trumped up charges of murder & the corruption of minors, he spent 33 years in the work camps where this album was recorded. Throat singing is by its very nature a sonic reflection or prayer in praise of the natural world & it's by virtue of his undying faith that Ouin retained his sanity during those dark years. These are moving, unconventional, self-styled throat psalms with wheezing accordian accompaniment. Still actively performing today, Ouin describes throat singing as the sound of the spirit & speaking of spirits, Divine Music made its initial appearance on the mighty ghostcapital earlier this year. This is merely an upgrade i hope will raise awareness of this uncompromising artist. a 320 rip
