The first full length album of Thai-Dutch collectove Apichat Pakwan defines their unique take on Thai, Lao & electronic music with a compelling selection of classic molam repertory and their own new compositions, that are equally at home on the dancefloor as on headphones while travelling.
Lam Toey Pasom was featured in the final episode of season 3 of The White Lotus.

“One of those East-meets-West experiments that works very well. The Western dub and hiphop do not dominate the Isan music; everything is fused to create something new and refreshing." – Bangkok Post (Thailand)

"Apichat Pakwan creates a seamless blend of electronics and molam music and to their credit the electronic elements don't steal the show. A fascinating debut. Highly recommended. ★★★★" - Songlines Magazine #154 (UK)
