keltoi Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 There is also the Nonesuch Explorer Series if you are really after that early world music thing. Mike Heron of Incredible String Band said that they were well into these records back in the day. For something a little more modern maybe check out Mikel Laboa & Haizea from the Basque country. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO5mXG2RX_s you maybe familar with this one already as its made many appearances on folk comps these are beautiful!

Guest igloos unlmtd Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 if anyone is interested in hearing more Mikel Laboa the place to start is his first album - Bat Hiru which features Txoria Txori (above) & the very strange & catchy - Baga Biga Higa. The album is from '74 and has a psych twist to it. Perfect for headphones & sitting at the beach in Donosti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvatorin Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 there is so much amazing traditional music from around the world there are folk traditions everywhere you look, even in the blandest parts of the USA if you dig around and do a little investigative ethnography you'll dig up surprises. I love the okinawan music because I only later found out that Ryuichi Sakamoto was taking motifs from it and using it in some YMO songs as well as his own work, he also incorporated gamelan and warrior chanting like earlier posted. Many of the case-study textbooks on ethnomusicology come with large libraries of historical field recordings of real traditional music. I recommend getting your hands on the recordings from 'music in bulgaria 1st edition' so much good stuff in there. I love gamelan. the differences between balinese and javanese is also interesting. one is fast, the other slow, one hindu, the other muslim. of course these pieces are not folk music, these ar the equivalent of the court music of europe, they were commissioned by nobles. some random stuff traditional southern gospel music: sweet polyrhthms from ghana: sakara drum ensemble: bulgarian dances: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poblequadrat Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Catalan traditional music is often pretty horrible, but there are a few wildly different genres so you might find something of interest. Catalan gypsies have their own traditional music, which sounds more "Spanish" I guess. It's pretty horrible too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watmmisdead Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 here's my favorite Marta Sebastyen. Zimbabwe mbira music: this is absolutely amazing. Ive been listening to this very often and its just not ''good for that kind of music'' its absolutely hypnotizing and beautiful http://www.nonesuch.com/albums/zimbabwe-the-african-mbira-music-of-the-shona-people this can give you a idea but really do seek for the explorer series. its a 1971 album this is not what I recommend but gives a idea. Richard Walley Matthew Doyle Tartit: just amazing If you want more, PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvatorin Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I've been obsessing over traditional tuvan music like this: Yat-Kha is great too. I got to see them live, and they were fantastic. They are actually innovative in that they are the first tuvan group to combine instruments and singing in such a fashion to form a band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
