sphinxsix Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 Thanks, but fusion is definitely not my thing. Kapela Ze Wsi Warszawa is quite far musically from the original 'roots' Polish folk Trebunie Tutki (but without Twinkle Brothers of course) are in fact much closer to it Link to comment

semente Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I listen to practically every genre of music. Jazz, blues, rock, classical.. But world music is a very special part of my collection, probably because of its (I think the right word will be) 'earthly' quality it usually has. At the same time I'm convinced there are many artists from different parts of the world I haven't discovered yet. This topic has really rekindled my interest in the genre. Cheers for that!

Nikhil Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Introducing Kuchipudi to the thread - one of the dance forms that I like. The signature sound is the rhythmic cant that follows the beat of the mridingam (wait for it at the 1:25 mark) Custom Win10 Server | Mutec MC-3+ USB | Lampizator Amber | Job INT | ATC SCM20PSL + JL Audio E-Sub e110 Link to comment
Iain Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Let me summarise this for you: The song is either sung by Asha Bhosle or Lata Mangeshkar. The song is sung in a really high-pitched totally nasal voice (which is highly irritating once you notice). That's it really. At the very least it's typically down to Bollywood culture, or more than likely it's Asian culture at work. That song style is readily noticeable on: iTunes -> Internet Radio -> International/World -> CalmRadio.com - Bollywood - Sampler ... and other similar iTunes streams Best way to approach this, is to supplant your western cultural subjective expectations with eastern cultural objective expectations. You'll enjoy the music more, and the "irritating" aspect you describe will fade into obscurity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bollywood http://www.soundonsound.com/ Link to comment

And decades later, the irritating aspect hasn't faded into obscurity for me.

sphinxsix Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 Introducing Kuchipudi to the thread ]I became quite interested in watching dance in recent years. Mainly modern dance but not only. Thanks! I couldn't find the fragment from 'Live at the Quick' official DVD which I highly recommend but check this out - these guys are having lots of fun! And Ondar Kongar-ol knows what throat singing is about. [video=youtube;FXPR-n9_OM8] @ semente Glad to hear that, mate! Link to comment

YashN Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 And here is an unattributed recording of the Chinese classic "Spring River Flower Moon Night" played on the guzheng (Chinese zither). I like how it shows the technique involved in playing this beautiful instrument: The canonical gear test track version of this for me is Zhao Cong - Moonlight on Spring River, on The Dali CD Vol. 2. It could be a soundtrack to an Asian Epic: Dedicated Line DSD/DXD | Audirvana+ | iFi iDSD Nano | SET Tube Amp | Totem Mites Surround: VLC | M-Audio FastTrack Pro | Mac Opt | Panasonic SA-HE100 | Logitech Z623 DIY: SET Tube Amp | Low-Noise Linear Regulated Power Supply | USB, Power, Speaker Cables | Speaker Stands | Acoustic Panels Link to comment

sphinxsix Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 This lady has a series of tutorial videos on overtone singing: I admit I tried to do it and I was succesful (to let's say some degree ). I recommend trying it - it's lots of fun. Thx for the link, will check out her lessons! BTW I'd like to hear an overtone choir one day! This should sound amazing! Somebody heard such recordings.?

sphinxsix Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 My favourite throat singers are Huun Huur Tu but they're not a choir: The most popular band of that kind I believe. That's right - they are not a choir.. BTW how is it possible noone has mentioned them before.? @semente I prefer them in more 'ethnic' form Link to comment

semente Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 As an adolescent, Jonathan "Johnny" Clegg developed an interest in Celtic music, which led to him learning about and performing Zulu street music and taking part in traditional Zulu dance competitions. He was first arrested at the age of 15 for violating apartheid-era laws in South Africa banning people of different races from congregating together after curfew hours. At the age of 17, he met Sipho Mchunu, a Zulu migrant worker with whom he began performing music. The partnership, which they named Juluka, was profiled in the 1970s television documentary Beats of the Heart: Rhythm of Resistance.
