Mongolian music special :o)

1) Haranga a rock/pop band; 3 songs:
"on jiluud"
"hair min"
"xaluun setgel"

2) Tatar a Hip Hop artist; 1 song of my choice:
"Gantsaaraa"
(I don't like his other music too much)

3) As we remember this is a special about Mongolia, we cannot forget to mention its traditional music, the famous throat singing. Sundui and Gereltsogt are the artists for this. If you are interested in Mongolian throat singing (Khöömi) here is a nice site for you: info
