Cambodian Rock

Cambodian Rock is a genre of music that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s in Cambodia. It is a blend of traditional Khmer music and Western rock and roll, and is characterized by its upbeat, danceable rhythms and catchy melodies. The genre was popularized by bands such as Baksey Cham Krong, Dengue Fever, and The Cambodian Space Project. Cambodian Rock is often seen as a symbol of the country's resilience and spirit of survival in the face of the Khmer Rouge regime and its aftermath.
