Synthesizing The Silk Roads: Uzbek Disco Tajik Folktronica Uyghur Rock & Crimean Tatar Jazz From 1980s Soviet Central Asia will almost certainly be the best record name of the year, and it also offers up some of the most fascinating sounds you might get your ears round in the next 12 months. This unique album has been sourced from ultra-rare dead stock pressed at a Soviet-era vinyl plant in Tashkent, Uzbekistan and features Uzbek disco, Tajik electronic folk, Uyghur guitar riffs, Crimean Tatar jazz, Korean brass, and make for a rich tapestry of genre-defying styles that take you on a journey along the Silk Roads, through vibrant USSR disco nights, and into the grooves that inspired Soviet youth and contributed to the unraveling of the Iron Curtain. Essential.
