In the heart of time, Silk roads weave through golden sands, Echoes of the past. Minarets reach sky, Ancient whispers of the night, Stars over deep blue. Market stalls alive, Spices dance, rich tales unfold, Persia's pulse beats strong.
This is right after the Siege of Samarkand where the Russians won and completed their victory over the Emirate of Bukhara? I remember reading about it in the fantastic book 'Great Game' by Peter Hopkirk. Wish someone made a movie about ANY of this Russian colonisation campaign, too many people falsely believe russia was some anti-colonial angel, but they colonised huge swathes of asia. I really love the melancholic tone of this piece. It's like the silence after the storm has settled, the city somewhat emptied, and people come to accept that their way of life has changed
Thanks for the historical dump! Good to know. As the process of growth of any empire, I can imagine how this process happened. And like you said, the ambient tells this feeling in a rightfully way. I know that when the spanish have come to South América, some civilizacional, like the Mayans, have already been living there for 3000 years. The point is that we often forget how the end of the world isn't something that will happen in the futuro, but something that already happens everyday, even today. I live in Brazil and the sistematic killing of indigenous people, as well as the extinctions of theirs existence is something that happens even during our times. As a famous indigenous philosopher of our tine, Ailton Krenak says: "It's not a question id the indigenous people of our country will be extinct, its a matter of When."
Russia was an Empire, and unlike Asia, it did not use the occupied territories as slaves. The occupied territories became a full-fledged part of the empire, and not what Western Europe did - drove slaves and siphoned off resources. You can study the history by at least 5% and see the scale of what actually happened. Before the expansion of the empire, Russia was under the yoke of the same Turkic peoples for 300 years, including current Uzbekistan who plundered and burned down entire cities in Rus. Therefore, it is not necessary to talk about colonialism. Colonialism is what the whole of Western Europe, led by Britain and then the United States, was doing.
@@Fazzrito Thanks for the statementes, they were extremely useful! I will study more in the topic to educate myself. 😊 For now I believe in you ans have to say that in fact if it was made this way then I'm proud for the russian expansionism being soo diferente and more humane from the commom colonialists practices from the rest of the Europe!
I worked as a Peace Corps volunteer in an Uzbek village -- finally! The algorithm is useful. Shah-i-Zinda is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
The work of art is named Mausoleum of Shah-i-Zinda in Samarkand. Go ahead and look up Vasily Vereshchagin and lament at how little has changed in 150 years. Hope, in vain, for the peace he too hoped for.
@@thegoldenboah3343 That this song doesn't really fit the description of Samarkand but I don't feel insulted, and i think you don't need to be so rude and disrespectful 😌
That golden window of time when the remains of the ancient and medieval worlds were still extant crumbling ruins, before modernity got into full wing and cleared everything away in the name of progress.
Not quite. In the medieval period it was often popular to use ancient ruins as raw material sources. This is why the Great Pyramid of Giza no longer has its limestone casing stones - thousands of years, it had been stripped of its limestone for building material in nearby Cairo - including to build some of the famous 13th century mosques in the city. Arguably we have more respect for historical monuments and artefacts today than we did in the centuries preceding.
Yeah, abandoned ruins in the middle of the desert could sit there untouched for ages and still are, because no one lives there, but old cities like Rome (or Samarkand!) are living things of layers upon layers tightly stacked and material re-used, only now actually it's a problem when there are some old bricks in the place you want your plumbing to go. In the olden days they would just threw the bricks the fuck out, they didn't have a concept of archeological site lmao
i think he means with the sites still somewhat integrated into the current life of the people then, but where that life was no longer vibrant enough to cause the old ruins to be cannibalised.
I cannot believe how happy i am to hear this. I was welcomed to your ambient stuff by the Baltic sea ambient, and fell in love. Then i searched for something from Uzbekistan, because this is a special place for me, especially Samarkand and Bukhara. My father used to take me for trips in this magical country. I don't remember a lot, but this music... I somehow feel my early childhood

Come to visit this beautiful, ancient city of UZBEKISTAN! It is fascinating!
I don't understand why, but this music makes me feel very good.
my ancestor's ruins. i really want to witness their life at that time period. the sound is very familiar to me. like i heard this way before.
Sarmakand, 1869. Definitely grabbed my attention. I feel there's something eternal to be felt here.
The Silk Road, such tranquility.
Thank you for this. Made my study easier

Пусть нега проглотит обоих,

Давай украдёмся у мира,
витая в пуховом гнезде,
сыграем на ласковой лире
в порочной, святой наготе,
и, перельясь в поцелуях,
изменим все смеси, края,
милуясь, любовью пируя,
до стонов все речи сведя.
Наутро остывшие кружки,
уставшие губы, лучи
и смятая меха опушка,
улыбки и слёзы свечи...
