What @Kitty said, was:

"For the love of all things unusual, a #TuneTuesday theme that celebrates a musical break from the norm.

#WhatWasThat by @EisenTukan invites you to share a song that contains an unusual instrument, vocal or clash of genres 🎶

Thank you for joining in ☺️"

If there's 1 band, who likes to play unusual instruments, then it's #DeadCanDance probably.

The percussive instrument being played by #LisaGerrard is the #yangqin, a Chinese hammered dulcimer.🌠

Wahyu Kolosebo ilâhisi sâyesinde Dad Can Dance'ın "Mushin"inin Endonezya Müziğinden esinlenme olduğunu farkettim!

Muşin (無心) yüksek düzeyli savaş sanatları eğitiminde kişinin yaşadığı bir bilinç durumudur. Terim, "zihin yokluğu olan zihin" anlamına gelen ve Zen'de kullanılan muşin no şin (無心の心), ifadesinin kısaltılmışıdır.

The prompt is #Omen

Hana – Omen, 2000

Hana is one of those groups that appeared more in on-trend compilations than on releases of their own. Omen was this duo's second and to my knowledge final release; members Anisa Romero and Jeff Greinke have gone on to other musical and non-musical artistic pursuits.

Sitting at the junction of #downtempo and #DreamPop, they're pretty much a no-brainer to be in my collection. This kind of #ethereal music with just a dash of a quasi- #tribal #electronica has the danger of falling into cliche - sort of a poor man’s #DeadCanDance - but among hundreds of similar offerings on #CDbaby at the time, this release stood out.

I quite enjoyed this album I just discovered by #Soma from 1998. Soma was a short-lived project between #DavidThrusell (from #Snog) and #PieterBourke of #DeadCanDance.

An intriguing combination of ethnosounds, #darkAmbient, jazz and a lot of other elements. Deep soundscapes paint an intriguing story. Maybe another one for those who like Perdition City era of #Ulver?
