Mong Tong is a Taiwanese psychedelic music band formed by brothers Hom Yu and Jiun Chi. The name "Mong Tong" is derived from the brothers' childhood nickname, which can mean something totally different in different languages from Burmese, Cantonese to Chinese.
Mong Tong's music is heavily influenced by Southeast Asian culture, including its mythology and folklore, as well as 60s and 70s psychedelic music. Their sound is characterized by hypnotic rhythms, dreamy melodies, and otherworldly atmospheres.

-------------------------------------------------
Gold Dime is an unapologetic art rock band & the brainchild of Andrya Ambro, best known as half the duo Talk Normal. Her songs are not for the faint of heart. 2017 brought the release of their debut full-length Nerves which Bandcamp described as “a gutsy, dense, fascinating work." Their more surreal 2nd LP My House was released in 2019, both on Fire Talk. Gold Dime released their third album No More Blue Skiesthis past October on No Gold - a new imprint from Angus Andrew from Liars. The Wire Magazine dubbed the record as "one of the most vibrant, purposeful rock records of the year." Since 2015 they have toured the US and opened for the likes of U.S. Girls, EMA, Liars, Rainer Maria, The Blow, Bush Tetras, Deerhoof and Xiu Xiu
