Trying something new

Postby Ayame_K » Mon Oct 31, 2005 10:09 pm

I would like to get a bunch of different music (from all different countries)together. I'm not picky about type of music I just want something new to listen to. Anyone have any good recomendations? Right now I have Gasolina by Daddy Yankee and Dragostea Din Tei by Haiducii. Thanks :D

Some of these might ring your bell.

The Streets, hip-hop from England, very unique.
K'naan Originally from Somalian, K'naan is now a hip-hop performer in Canada, who maintains the feel of his homeland in East Africa.
Arcturus is a blend of immense numbers of styles and approaches.
Farmakon, thrash metal, jazz and a heavy Opeth influence, very chaotic and skilled.
OhGr, Canadian electronic artist who fuses in metal and other elements.
Primus are virtually indescribable. But rule.

I'm tired now, but maybe more next time.

The Romanian one by O-Zone is the original (and IMO the best one, and that english one sucks)

Okay, here's some pretty varied stuff:

The Pogues: a band from Ireland, singing traditional Irish tunes with an alternative style

Ivan Kupala: a Russian band that plays Russian folk music blended with electronica--very unique

The Decemberists: from Portland, has the most evocative imagery I've heard in music (listen to their album Picqaresque)

Dead Can Dance: their music ranges widely from eastern music to medieval songs; they sing most of their music in echolalia--I highly reccomend their Toward the Within live album

Karl Sanders's solo CD, "Saurian Meditation." He's American, but the entire CD is basically instrumental Egyptian soundscapes. Ironically, he's also the main writer in Nile (a death metal band), with Dallas-Toller Wade (Dallas Toller-Wade? I always screw up where the hyphen goes)

Arcturus as somebody said, and I'd recommend Borknagar who are in the same vein. Vintersorg as well, which is the side project of Borknagar's singer (who is ironically named...Vintersorg.)

Blind Guardain - German power/thrash/orchestra metal band, sings in english.
Savage Circus - multinational power metal bands, formed by Blind Guardian's ex-drummer, Thomen Stauch. Good stuff.
DragonForce - British "light speed power metal" as it has been dubbed by several people. It's really mind bendingly fast. Works EXTREMELY well for when you need a bit of fast paced music for an online Multiplayer game that lacks strategy.
Dream Theater - American Progressive metal band. Very good stuff. Epic songs and story albums aplenty.
Iced Earth - one of the few successful power metal bands to come out of America, Iron Maiden influence. The line up isn't all that solid, and the only member who's really stayed with the band for it's entirety is Jon Schaffer, the rhythm guitarist/founder.
Demons and Wizards - Side project between lead singer Hansi Kursch of Blind Guardian and rhythm guitarist Jon Schaffer of Iced Earth. Pretty good stuff.

For something really different, try the Klezmatics. They're Klezmer, and fairly well known in Jewish circles.

Indian songs are usually taken from Indian films, Bollywood, a big part of Indian culture.

One that springs to mind is Do La Re from the film Devdas. I don't usually like Indian songs, but this one is pretty fast and upbeat. Be warned though, it's pretty long!
