Sainkho Namtchylak is a fine singer and musician from the remote deserts of the Tuva, a small country on the border to Mongolia. She has created an outstanding style that combines the musical traditions of her nomad past with contemporary influences including drum 'n bass, hip hop and jazz. London, Rome, Berlin, Vienna and the breathtaking landscapes of the Tuva are the backdrop for a journey to the source of Sainkho's inspiration. Sainkho Namtchylak is an icon of a generationwho bridges the gap between modernity and tradition. At a time of globalization and dying traditions, Sainkho is an attempt to investigate the ways artists deal with the phenomenon of missing links.
