Popular Post The Isan Project Posted October 28, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) "Forever" a Thai ballad written on the banks of the Chaophraya river in Bangkok has been remixed by producers in England and has already been a dance floor filler in clubs across the UK and now with a dance video recorded in New York City, the Isan vibe from Thailand is set to become a new dance craze.Recorded by "The Isan Project" who is run by producer "Will Robinson" has been developing the sounds from Isan for a few months now. Will said "I'm absolutely delighted with the feedback here, I love the sound from Isan, I love the culture and the dance, this is going to be a great journey".The Isan Project first single "Forever (Dance Remix)" features Thai soul princess "Mariam" of B5 and UK artist "Richie". It's tipped to have chart success in October / November and entered no. 27 as new entry in the music week pop chart UK last week.

David48 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 mmmmmm catchy isn't it bit like ebola I felt it quite uplifting. Catchy sure. I don't speak Thai ... but the melody still echoes in my head. As for the clip ... shot on two Continents. The slow-mo with the Thai Dancer and the smoke ... Plus, seeing the band members gave it a personal tough. Polished, but not to perfection ... just how you (I) want music to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Forever" a Thai ballad written on the banks of the Chaophraya river in Bangkok" Musicians are poets ... grant them, at least, some poetic licence! EDIT But I also have to contest your post further. Just watched again the 1st minute. That is definitely the Bangkok stretch of the Chao Praya River. Did you not see Wat Arun there?

bina Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 frankly i thought it was boring. sorry, i have eclectic tastes in music but that 'club' sound is boring at the best of times. i can listen to phin music for hours... it just sounded like one record (i know i know that dates me) playing at the same time as another. ... now had phin riffs been used in side the music, that would be nice... (the way the beatles used ravi shankar's style in their music)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(the way the beatles used ravi shankar's style in their music)... Well said Bina, nothing more than a bit of sampling. I mentioned in a previous post, this is about 20 years out of date, Deep Forest did it years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 a fine song. I like Isaan music. But most of the footage is in Bangkok. I see the BTS, the ASOK station etc. I don't understands the words much so maybe it is a homesick Isaan person in BKK? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozsamurai Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Yeah good to see something similar to what I have been making for years finally make some headway in the mainstream. Well done! Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goanna Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I have seen the other clip with the overall story, and it was good to see this clip. But the African American in the middle? Why? What relevance to anything? Spoilt a good clip. You should probably resist the urge to put your friends in the video, because it spoiled the whole thing.

KunMatt Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 (edited) There is something about this which reminds me of the mainstream early 90s dance music, the chorus is extremely catchy though. The song takes me back to but with a video made by high school students. Edited November 2, 2014 by KunMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Isan Project Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 The Isan sound continues to smash the clubs....Forever climbs to No.21 in the Music Week UK pop charts!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gk10002000 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Catchy tune and good for disco. The video would be quite a novelty at a club that has large screen TVs. Something different to see and watch while out clubbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gk10002000 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Momentarily choking up and crying as I listen to this again. So missing Thailand and can't wait to go back. Loy Krathong coming soon and I love to be in country for that. But job in San Diego CA is keeping me busy until January. Plan to hit the Wat Thai in Escondido and also the Wat Lao a week or two before that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy chef 1 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 i think with some "real" hardcore morlum you could introduce something completely new to the european clubbing scene... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
