𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗢𝗗𝗔𝗬: Debut album 𝑾𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝑶𝒊𝒓𝒂𝒕 by 𝗧𝘀 𝗕𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗶.

Raised in a nomadic family on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, Bayandalai creates music shaped by landscape, memory and cultural resonance. Across Wind of Oirat, traditional Mongolian elements intertwine with post-rock, experimental composition and subtle electronic textures, producing a sound that feels both deeply rooted and strikingly contemporary.

We are very proud to present our most ambitious project to date.
𝗢𝘂𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘄: Single release of the opening track 𝑩𝒊𝒓𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝑾𝒊𝒏𝒅 of the upcoming album 𝑾𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝑶𝒊𝒓𝒂𝒕 by Mongolian musician and sound artist 𝗧𝘀 𝗕𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗶.��Raised in a nomadic family on the vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia, Bayandalai’s music carries the resonances of the steppe: wind across open landscapes, the voice of the horse fiddle, and the mythologies woven through the relationship between humans, animals and land. On Wind of Oirat, these elements intertwine with post-rock structures and experimental textures, creating a sound that feels both ancient and quietly modern.�
