After a best mate of mine introduced me to Fela Kuti’s works I’ve been real interested in hearing music from other cultures you don’t hear much stuff from. Doesn’t have to be traditional music styles (love it when genres and cultures fuse together, like Masayoshi Takanaka taking influence from Brazilian music), but I’d love to hear that as well!
O-Zone (of “Numa Numa” fame) is from Moldova; that’s pretty obscure, right?
Ylvis (“What Does the Fox Say?”) is Norwegian.
“Epic Sax Guy” is… also Moldovan, apparently. Huh.
I curse you just for mentioning them. I freaking hate that song.
