Bolot & Nohon are singers from the Altai Autonomous Republic, Russia. For many years, this area was under the control of the Soviet Union, but with the breakup of the USSR it became an independent republic within the Russian Federation. Altai's near neighbors include Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and Tuva, the latter probably being most famous among world music aficionados for its throat-singing. Their album Üch Sümer is made up of songs from Altai, and throat-singing is front and centre here. The liner notes define no fewer than four different styles of throat-singing, from the deep growl of karkiraa to the high whistling tone of sikit. When not throat-singing, the vocalists sing in a declamatory style. The singers are Bolot Bayrishev and Nohon Shumarov, who accompany themselves on a variety of traditional instruments. These instruments include two lute-like instruments, a mouth-harp, and a variety of wind instruments, some intended to lure wild deer.
