Kantrum
Kantrum ( th, กันตรึม, km, កន្ដ្រឹម) is a type of folk music played by the Khmer in Isan, Thailand, living near the border with Cambodia. It is a fast, traditional dance music. In its purest form, cho-kantrum, singers, percussion and fiddles dominate the sound. A more modern form using electric instrumentation arose in the mid-1980s. Language Kantrum is interesting from a linguistic perspective. As the Khmer native to Thailand are bilingual, kantrum songs can be sung in Thai ( Isan dialect), Northern Khmer or a combination of the two. In the case of the later, it is most common that a complete verse will be sung in Thai followed by a reciprocating verse in Khmer. However, code switching between the two languages within the same verse also occurs, lending to a wide variety of possibilities for rhyming and tonal euphony. Performers In the late-1980s, Darkie became the genre's biggest star, crossing into mainstream markets in the later 1990s. ...
