One Hour of Vintage Music from Cambodia's 'Golden Age' (1960s - 1975)

Alternative title: Vintage Rock & Pop Music from the Pearl of East Asia

This is my first compilation video, and it was tedious. I decided to do something different and made a compilation video of non-political Cambodian Music from the 60's and early 70's instead of military music. I know it's something that would be reserved for my second channel, but why not post it here, y'know?. It was either this or music from the Mexican Revolution and I chose this and made a poll on my Discord server on which one, most seem to choose what I chose also. You might recognize acouple of these from my second channel, but if you don't, then that's ok. I would like to know what you think of the songs and my first compilation video also. Image seems a little blurry so I apologize for that

This Era in Phnom Penh is often nicknamed the Cambodian "Golden Age" because of the rise of the film & Music Industry at the time. Cambodians started mixing and remixing traditional Cambodian music with Rock and other music genres. This golden age was cut short during the fall and capture of Phnom Penh by the Khmer Rouge and many musicians and singers were then murdered the following years (Like Sinn Sisamouth & Pen Ran) and a few escaped Cambodia or survived the Cambodian Genocide. After the Khmer Rouge was toppled, alot of things have been lost, mostly due to the Khmer Rouge destroying alot of it. Alot of songs remain unknown or unlabeled because of it, and so are the artists who made them. It's a problem that I want fixed someday.


Like always: Anything Pol Pot/ Khmer Rouge Affiliated will be deleted unless otherwise
