'Same Same but Different', the familiar phrase heard throughout southeast Asia, a perfect description to characterize Onra's latest project, a follow up to his 2007 LP - Chinoiseries. So almost five years later, here we go back on the trail of another Asian beat journey with 32 Hip-Hop instrumentals inspired by Chinese and Vietnamese music. A lot has happened in between: The Big Payback with Byron the Aquarius, a beats LP \"1.0.8\" plus 2010's acclaimed boogie tinged hip hop LP \"Long Distance\" while along the way he's revisited South East Asia on a few occasions adding to his Asian record stack on each occasion. The exotic, mysterious pop and folk Chinese records of the 60s and 70s with their epic operatic and orchestral feel and sealed from the Western counter culture rumblings of the time, not to mention alive with vintage vinyl hiss and crackle, may not seem the easiest source material to work with but after hermetically sealing himself in his Parisian beat cave Onra has come with a more than worthy return for all the time and money spent in the vinyl basements and backrooms of the Far East. There's ample variation but a coherent whole, from the more electronic feel of \"A New Dynasty\" and \"All Night\", to the soundtrack vibe of \"Mai's Theme\" and \"Fight Or Die\" and the straight beat sound of \"No Matter What\" and \"Remember The Name\" and he's even found some breaks! Inspired by the idea of the LP as a sequence of film scenes, this intense burst of beats and distinct vibes form an accomplished rounded full length.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Arrival\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA New Destiny\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt's All Memories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemember the Name\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen the Door\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGotta Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMai's Theme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWords of Encouragement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrapped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne for the Wu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo Matter What\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeet the Queen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStay with Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpium Delirium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold Blooded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere I'm from\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStill Broke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnakes ; Smoke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMai's Theme 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaw Shit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMs. Ho\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn My Mind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHide and Seek\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlay the Game\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarriors Pride\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLike Father, Like Son\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFight or Die\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrough the Flesh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTears of Joy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThey Got Breaks Two\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe End\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"30","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50791782449448,"sku":"655471148210","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/4241461-3031141.jpg?v=1763992674","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/onra-chinoiseries-pt2-lp-655471148210","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
