World Music... oops, I mean, music that is perhaps unfamiliar to western listeners because it's from underrepresented places..

not to everyone's taste.
so to keep the tunes thread punky and cool, here's a thread for music from cultures who's music may be unfamiliar to western ears.. no real term for it.. 'world music' is like the term 'foreign films'.. depends where you're from/very USA-centric. 'music from many cultures' sounds forced, bland and over-manufactured.

Anyway. Cool music from around the world.

When life's a drain and Autumn falls
Take a breath, forgive them all.
When life's insane and all else fails
Fuck on off and fill your sails..
.
(telly off, maybe candles.. good thing on very low vol, fill your home)


(proper easy listening, beautiful and real, but the guy rates this,
his biggest seller, lower than his real work in preserving heritage )
