For anyone concerned about the Thailand/Cambodia border clashes that have claimed 35 lives and displaced more than 270k people, this discussion on the history/root causes of the dispute is worth a watch. Leaders of both countries are currently in peace talks in Malaysia.

Donate to Cambodian rock book's final mission needs gas!, organized by Dee Peyok Between 2012 and 2019 I travelled across 3 continents and interviewed more th… Dee Peyok needs your support for Cambodian rock book's final mission needs gas!

It’s official! Crowdfunder target reached! Translations bound, books arrived, flights booked… I return books to musicians in Cambodia 8-22 January! Any extra donations I’ll give directly to the musicians. Thank you all who’ve donated already, still time if you want to give 🤩🙏 gofund.me/db872063

Wow @marcissist.bsky.social !

I have this one on vinyl. It’s a great collection and even better to hear they paid royalties to the family. I hope more will follow their example. Thank you.

I’m also going back to Cambodia in January to visit musicians. I ran a crowdfunder for the translation project and trip. I reached target so every £ raised at this stage will be direct donations to the artists including Sisamouth’s widow. www.gofundme.com/manage/cambo...

I wish the system was better and artists were paid their dues 💔

When I discovered the previous CVMA link was broken I found an alternative quick rather than take the post down. But otherwise I’d ordinarily favour their links above others.

…rights that musicians or families have. I’m not sure what other labels are doing. I tried to direct people to the CVMA YouTube channel as much as possible in my book song list as I know that they are at least trying to get round a system that doesn’t honour old music royalties in Cambodia.

The Cambodian Vintage Music Archive supported the Sisamouth family to obtain rights to 83 of his songs in 2014. I haven’t heard of a legal wins since then sadly. I know the CVMA have in the past given donations to families in exchange for Spotify playlists and in absence of any legal royalties…

Me too… I haven’t finished it yet!

Another top books of the year list @willhodgkinson.bsky.social 🙌🏽👏👏👏

That’s awful 💔

I put this #cambodianrock playlist together for my publisher’s account but my book also lists a Spotify-free, mostly remaster-free list for the purists. Enjoy! 🎵
