Dengue Fever

Musical Group

Dengue Fever is an American Los Angeles–based band known for blending Cambodian-language vocals and mid-20th-century Khmer pop influences with 1960s garage and psychedelic rock. The group's sound mixes world-music elements with surf-pop and retro organ textures.

The review highlights Chhom Nimol's Cambodian singing and credits the Holtzman brothers for bringing Venus back to earth; the album is described as merging 60s garage with Khmer tradition and reviving music suppressed under Pol Pot's regime.

The available review praises Dengue Fever's Venus on Earth for blending 1960s garage-psych with Khmer/Cambodian musical tradition. Chhom Nimol's Cambodian-language vocals and the Holtzman brothers' arrangements are highlighted. The album is described as psychedelic, surf-pop-tinged world music that revives suppressed Cambodian pop.

For:Fans of psychedelic rock, world music, 60s garage revivalists, and listeners interested in Cambodian rock traditions.

 "Venus on earth" is nostalgic fever, that of a Californian group from Los Angeles, which looks at the 60s garage sound and merges it with the KHMER tradition through the reissue of martyrized pop surviving from Pol Pot's Cambodia.
