Hear. Here. Singapore‪.‬ SPLiCE Cast

Every Chinese New Year, across Singapore, you'll hear lion dances to bring good luck in the new year. Learn more about the simple instruments used and, most importantly, how much it costs to get a lion dance troupe over to your home/office/shop to raise the roof and start the year right! For some reason, this is our most popular episode, and it's probably cos even though it's an impromptu recording of a lion troupe that started performing right in front of me, there are good chunks of the performance that are nice and clean that have probably been sampled and remixed into other works.

Immerse yourself in a south bath of Himalayan Full Moon Singing Bowls at The Singing Bowl Gallery. The Full Moon bowls are struck under a full moon, which is said to imbue each bowl with a special aura that makes the note of the bowl more ethereal. The address is 160 Robinson Road #04-12 SBF Centre, Singapore 068914.

I'm on a short break, so I'm resurfacing a few classic episodes from our first season

When passing the scene of a traffic accident, most folks rubber neck to see the aftermath, and no more. In Singapore, gamblers note down the license plates and then go place a bet on that number coming up in the draw. Welcome to the insane world of gambling on numbers and the folly of trying to beat the house!

Out and about again with my parabolic mic, I decided to track down a single cicada and record it going through a full cycle of the iconic cicada song. Alkaff Mansion is a good spot to get away from the city and record cicadas... but there are also plenty of crows there. Crows happen to be a natural predator of the noisy critters... and mayhem ensues!
