    Break on through

    Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 28/04/2015

    » For Thai musicians, breaking into the international market is a coveted goal. Much like with any other area of popular culture, the influences, imprints, looks and inspirations of contemporary Thai music largely come from other parts of the world — especially the West. A Thai touch is often then placed into the mix.
