Tengger Cavalry blows a new wind in the rock scene
Although the name Tengger Cavalry might not ring a bell to those who don’t have rock songs on their playlist, it must be definitely familiar to metal fans that are constantly on the lookout for new and good music.  The New York-based nomadic folk metal band Tengger Cavalry’s music surely has both qualities. The band has blessed the international rock music scene with a new genre and a new sound that is nomadic folk metal.  “International rock music mostly sounds western and not a lot of people are aware of Asian musical influence at all.  Now, people are starting to take an interest in Asian music”, shares Nature G, leader and founder of the group in an online interview with the Mongol Messenger.

Emerging young filmmaker recognized
Director Uisenma Borchu is a young and free-spirited woman who has got dozens of ideas waiting to be interpreted and shared to people. She is a modest thinker. “I was always curious about everything and watched those who are in a weird situation. I had never imagined that I would be a director even though I loved watching movies. But I felt the need to express my thoughts and opinions. So I used to write them on a paper trying to compose a poem or story. That was me seeking ways to express what’s on my mind. And when I was 22, I realized that film could convey my messages perfectly. I had a big opportunity to study at the University of Television and Film Munich”, she says about how she became director.

Dog breeder B.Erdenebat along with others interested in breeding Mongolian dogs founded the dog breeding house in 2004. Ever since he was a kid, B.Erdenebat loved animals and had several dogs as pets such as a German Shepard. Then, his fondness for dogs grew into a responsibility. “One day, I realized that there are almost no pure-bred Mongolian dogs around. Dogs bred from China, Tibet or somewhere else was believed to be Mongolian dogs”.

The real sound of nomads should be revived and protected
Composer talks about his accomplishments and ambitions Does the term ‘sound of Mongolia’ excite you? It should. While everybody’s aware of Mongolia’s heroic Khaans and long history, the soft power of the nation is a bit underestimated or neglected by majority of the people who take an interest in the country. Mongolia is a country of beautiful sound and immense talent. Mongolians nomads have expressed their emotion and message through many musical means including traditional long song, khoomei (throat singing) and instruments such as Morin Khuur, Tsuur or others for as long as their emergence on the Eurasian land.
