Introduction

ho-hai-yan , ocean

The new folk song from Tai-Tung puyuma tribes

In 2000 pau-dull's first CD The Ocean won two awards at the Golden Melody Awards, and this shy, soft-spoken policeman of the Puyuma tribe in Taidong suddenly became one of the most popular and well-respected singer-songwriters in Taiwan. 

Just one listen is enough to know why. pau-dull's guitar playing is mesmerizing, and his voice thrums with passion and feeling for his aboriginal culture and his ancestral home, the mountainous coast of south-east Taiwan. 

An aboriginal chorus contributes rich harmonies and a warm sense of community and friendship. These songs are flawless in their conception and production, but their most wonderful quality is that they are works of love, love for people, love for one's heritage, and the love for home.

On this album you will hear the ocean, along with one man's love for it and all it represents.
