Chongqing – In the summer of 2025, a collaborative production team from the Western China International Communication Organization and Danish music producer Rasmus Hedegaard ventured across nine provinces and regions in Western China, immersing themselves in the daily lives of ten ethnic groups to create the documentary series Western China's Melody. By blending the soul of ancient folk songs with the pulse of modern electronic beats, the series brings to life a musical journey that allows the world to hear the most authentic and heartfelt heartbeat of Western China.
As the Yellow River flows through Lanzhou, Yugur folk songs are passed down along the Silk Road. Hedegaard arrives in Lanzhou to hear soulful ballads resist the erosion of time. Through the dedication of three generations of musicians, the ancient nomadic musical heritage of the Yugur people is revitalized with modern electronic energy, guarding a millennium-old cultural legacy.
