wow that sounds really good. definetly getting this. I was afraid that Moshic would go into the minimal route. Thank god he didn't.

Well damn, this even exceeds my expectations. :eyes: :crazy:
I think I will like this even more than Salamat, which was just a tad too ethnic sounding for my taste.

Don't you think it's a little condescending to call it "ethnic" just because it isn't Western in origin?
Jasperovitsj
As far as I know there is no condescending connotation to the term "ethnic" :conf: If Moshic had used Native American chants or old Balkan influences, they would still be ethnic in origin, no matter where they came from. Nothing condescending about that. Trust me, the anthropology courses I took at university taught me to not be ethnocentric in my views. :)

Indeed sounds like fantastic album but I wouldn't expect anything less from Moshic. Great producer!

I'll definitely be getting this, even though I've pissed off the entire Moshic forum with my Music Disc thread about the cover :D

Wouldn't that mean that all music with a distinct cultural source becomes "ethnic"? Hip-hop, house, techno, blues and rock are all ethnic American music, but you'd never refer to them as such.

I'm currently hyper-sensitive to this issue, having recently read Orientalism by Edward Said. I've just noticed how people never ascribe "ethnic" to any white, Western styles of music even if they're undeniably centred around one area.

you pissed off? sorry for you, try to be involved in better subject then the album cover, its' all about the music and not about the cover, if you dont' like the cover buy the album in digital format.

Learn more English ;)

I'm not pissed off, they are pissed off with me for saying that. Although the cover IMO is rubbish, its the music that I care about in the end.

I don't think so. I think that American music can be called ethnic when it contains Indians cultural elements.

Nice samples!

If it's white it's "folk", if it's not white it's "ethnic". :stongue:
