The 3 days Penang world music festival 2012 event recently held at the quarry recreational park, Botanic Garden Penang. It was a great treat for music lovers to enjoy various bands around the world.
Bands from Mongolia - Altan Urag, Bali - Gus Teja, Vanuatu - Kalja Riddim Klan, Ireland - Beoga, Russia - Loyko, Colombia - Maite Hontele, Afrika - Guinee Percussions, Kelantan - Geng Wak Long and many more came to perform and introduce their unique musical talent to locals and visitors.
Personally, I truly enjoyed the event especially from the Gus Teja and Altan Urag bands. Gus Teja music rendition injected lots of traditional elements and their musical choice delivered a very soothing feel to the environment. Whereas the Altan Urag band was quite unique in the sense that they were using their throat to produce unique sounds to the music.
