Gong Gong Gong (工工工) & Mong Tong (夢東): Mongkok Duel (旺角龍虎鬥)

[bandcampsnoop]

9/18/24.

I'm a pretty big fan of Gong Gong Gong (工工工...if you want to search for their releases on Discogs, you'll need to copy and paste that) going back to 2016's post about the President Piano Co. Tape. They've received posts and mentions since. They've been brought up in a post about Naja Naja and The Offset. And their LP on Wharf Cat Records - "Phantom Rhythm" - is still one of my favorites.

"Mongkok Duel" is a collaboration between the Beijing based Gong Gong Gong and the Taiwan based Mong Tong. According to the Bandcamp page, "Mongkok Duel" "an imagined soundtrack for a lost kung-fu film. These are the sonic accompaniments, no doubt, to a supernatural tale of honour, intrigue, and (of course) revenge."

I can't quite tell which label is releasing this. It was originally released in 2023 by Rose Mansion Analog.

Listen/purchase: A History of Brightness by Mong Tong

We mentioned them in the previous post about Prairie WWWW, this is 洪御 Hom Yu’s other band, the ‘sample-based psychedelic trio' Mong Tong  (His brother Jiun Chi Hung is in the band, along with a 3rd member who doesn’t appear with them live)

Anyway, I love the mood of this piece!  It’s the title track of their 2019 ep, A History of Brightness. 

Hear much more at Mong Tong Bandcamp & Spotify

Not quite a band, not quite entirely electronic music either, Mong Tong proves hard to place
