Saamleng is a Warsaw-based label dedicated exclusively to field recordings, founded in 2014 by Tomek Mirt. The label's inception was directly inspired by Mirt's first journey to Southeast Asia in 2013, where his encounter with foreign soundscapes sparked the vision for a platform devoted entirely to pure environmental recordings in complete isolation from the musical context. Saamleng focuses on soundscapes in all their forms—biophony, geophony, and anthropophony treated as equally fascinating elements. So far the geographic scope encompasses everything from Southeast Asia, through Europe including Poland, the Balkans, Estonia and more, to Ethiopia and waters around Patagonia, among other locations. The catalog includes both physical CDs and digital-only releases by artists like Tomek Mirt, Magda Ter, John Grzinich, Michał Wiśniowski, Jacek Szczepanek, Katarzyna Szczerba, Andrzej Załęski, Dawid Chrapla, Rafał Kołacki, Ewa Orzeszko, Jacek Chmiel, Wojciech Wilk and finally archival recordings by Bogdan Jankowski capturing historic Polish Himalayan expeditions (1971-2003) including documentation of the first winter ascent of Mount Everest.More information at: saamleng.bandcamp.com
Temple Soundscapes Series 15 & 16 ( available now) present recordings that may be more challenging or less spectacular, but I believe they complete the picture emerging from the entire series. Both sites are interesting for their history. Wat Pa Pao is located in Chiang Mai, inseparably associated with numerous extraordinary temples.
Treat them as the end of "Season 2". "Season 3" comes later this year, but first we'll come back with something different!
Another map of current status of Temple Soundscapes Series. Fourteen temples recorded and available via Bandcamp!
Temple Soundscapes Series Part 11 & 12 are available now on our Bandcamp page. These are recordings from Wat Yu, surrounded by rice fields in Nan Province, and Wat Phra That Inkhang, located in the mountains of Phrae Province.
We’re returning to our series of soundscape recordings from Thai temples. Two new digital albums feature recordings from Wat Saket Ratchawora Mahawihan in Bangkok and cave of Wat Tham Sumano in Phatthalung Province.
A quick warning—there’s more to come! After our latest trip, our archive is bursting at the seams.
