Experimental jazzy industrial/ethno stylemix.

This is my Free-Tibet-contribution and a rather weird fusion of different audio elements and styles. The idea was born when I found an acapella sung by Sa Dingding during an interview. She is said to be the rising star in modern asian/pacific pop scene and might be the first eastern artist being able to enter western world top charts. Well, guess this really could happen - she already got several music awards, and her sorta traditional mongolian singing/intonation style is embedded in western electro pop music, which reminds to early Björk tunes.
Still it's lika a hype pushed by music industry which is heading for profit... so I'm seeing her career with mixed feelings. When she was asked for her opinion about the political situation of Tibet, she answered in a rather pro-China way, of course she doesn't want to mess with the chinese system which obviously controls a big slice of asian music market.
Hence I tried to express my annoyance by mixing her acapella with strange sonic lines, to phrase the ambiguous situation of many chinese artists. In this regard Dingding Thing may not be cosidered as one of my conventional wacky tunes... but as a personal statement.
