THE MEKONGDengue Fever's psychedelic take on the Cambodian pop sounds of the '60s makes them one of rock 'n' roll's most unique success stories. They draw enthusiastic crowds from LA to the UK, from Maui to Moscow, and leave critics rummaging through their thesauruses looking for new superlatives to describe their sound. The band's vinyl release, the double disc vinyl LP soundtrack of the feature film Sleepwalking Through The Mekong, continues the story and evolution of the band as they travel to Cambodia as the first Western group to perform the music of Cambodia since the fall of the Khmer Rouge. Sleepwalking Through The Mekong has received an enthusiastic reception at international film festivals, as well as the Tucson Film Festival, the Silver Lake Film Festival in Los Angeles, the Hawaii International Film Festival and the Margaret Mead Film Festival in New York. "An engagingly different rock 'n' roll documentary..." - Variety "Dengue Fever, or course, is quite possibly the most original pop band in LA." - Los Angeles TimesReleased on Record Store Day Black Friday 2022
"Sleepwalking Through The Mekong follows Los Angeles based band Dengue Fever on their journey to the country that inspired their love for 60's and 70's Cambodian rock. The odyssey is a homecoming for singer Chhom Nimol and a transformation for the rest of the band as they perform with master musicians and record new songs along the way. More than a rockumentary, the film serves up a portrait of modern Cambodia as the band tours through Phnom Penh and beyond, crossing a great cultural chasm with the same spirit of Cambodia's original rock pioneers. Cambodia is often synonymous with the brutal Khmer Rouge regime that left millions dead and scattered refugees around the globe. This tragedy overshadows the story of Cambodia's music scene that was nearly destroyed. Cambodian musicians reinvented Western rock n' roll with a distinctly Khmer flavour to create a sound that is at once familiar and completely original. Sleepwalking Through The Mekong celebrates this vibrant but long-overlooked music and reveals the power of music to weave a common thread between extremely different cultures."
"Dedicated to the singers and musicians who perished under the Pol Pot regime.
Their spirit and music live on."
