Nice!!!! I didn't know Gagaku at all (though I get where some things that John Zorn did with Cobra come from!).
But since the compass is now leading us to the Orient, I always wanted to be from Mongolia (I don't know why).
I used to love the most traditional throat singing of Mongolia, but then I discovered Sainkho Namtchylak and she absolutely blew my mind... She sometimes sings traditional folk songs, but she also visits Free Jazz, Electronica, Blues, Pop.... or goes completely experimental and somehow resembling the most experimental phase of Diamanda Galás. So her songs are all very different.
