Of course every country has their own form of music, yet they fall under a certain genre. For example, Hip Hop is popular everywhere, especially in France or general Euro. But if i walk down a few blocks and ask one of my avid american music buddies about wuts goin on overseas, they jus have ????? written on their faces.
Here is where the dilemmia begins. In many ways are we limiting ourselves to grow culturally. Dont get me wrong French Hip Hop brings a different style, but its something to learn from. I saw a video of Mos Def the other day, and he pondered the idea of establishing bureaus in every country just like news agencies or Routers. Ingenius I thought. Think of it as the facebook for music. You know the latest and greatest and who is doin what. After hearing the Dutch producer Nicolay I was sold on music abroad.
