ELECTRIC CITY

It’s strange type of energy
Highly ranged mentality
Common truth of this reality
Your new idol is in high intensity
You ask me why
am I this way
‘cause it’s in the flavor of my voice
That’s why,
that’s why,
that’s why...
You ask me why
much troubles in this world
‘cause it’s in the flavor of your mind
That’s why,
that’s why,
that’s why...
It’s conscious type of energy
Deeply structured sensitivity
Gently touching intelligence
The Gods message is in electricity

Sainkho Namtchylak is a singer originally from Tuva, a small autonomous Russian republic just north of Mongolia. She is known for her Tuvan throat singing or Khöömei.

Sainkho Namtchylak is an experimental singer, born in 1957 in a secluded village in the south of Tuva, an autonomous Russian state bordering Mongolia.

She has an exceptional voice, spanning seven octaves and proficient in overtone singing; her music enmeshes avant-jazz, electronica, modern composition and Tuvan influences.

In Tuva numerous cultural influences collide: the Turkic roots it shares with Mongolia, Xinjiang Uighur and the Central Asian states; various Siberian nomadic ethnic groups, principally those of the Tungus-Manchu group; Russian Old Believers; migrant and resettled populations from the Ukraine, Tatarstan and other minority groups west of the Urals.

All of these, to extents, impact on Sainkho's voice, although the Siberian influences dominate: her thesis produced while studying voice, first at the University of Kyzyl, then in the Gnesins Institute in Moscow during the 1980s focussed on Lamaistic and cult musics of minority groups across Siberia, and her music frequently shows tendencies towards Tungus-style imitative singing.

Sainkho worked with several ensembles: the Moscow State Orchestra; the Moscow-based jazz ensemble 'Tri-O' (since 1989); School of Dramatic Art under the direction of Anatoly Vasiliev (Moscow), and various orchestras in Kyzyl.

She has released over thirty albums in the past twenty years, working with various musicians and experiencing different styles.
