Siberian folk music is a captivating genre that embodies the rich cultural tapestry of Siberia, blending indigenous sounds with modern influences. Characterized by its use of traditional instruments such as the khomus (jaw harp), igil (two-stringed bowed instrument), and various types of drums, it often features haunting throat singing and ethereal vocal harmonies. This genre draws inspiration from the diverse ethnic groups of the region, evoking the natural landscapes and spiritual heritage of Siberia. Bands like Otyken and Hartyga seamlessly intertwine ancient melodies with contemporary rhythms, creating a sonic experience that is both timeless and innovative, while artists such as UUTAi highlight the genre's deep connection to nature and shamanistic traditions.
