Mexican traditional music is so beautiful.

Probably the only good Mexican music.

America, Jazz, blues and country/folk are honestly 10X better than all of this awful pretentious shit that foreignfags are posting.

the second video is romanian dude

nice pick
I choose Iran/Perse: i love the sounds of tombak, santur, etc

Hungarian Folk

This. The Oud and the Maqam music structure can do amazing things.

Also this - Brazil has made so many great albums.

Nah. Highlife and Afrobeat are much more accessible.

what kind of tuning are they using in the first video?

A blues song I wrote for you

fantano looks sexy in dis

I've never heard anyone say nigga in blues, but it has the least variety out of any genre I've ever heard.

>this

I generally enjor Latin American traditional music.

Colombian traditional cumbia is the shit (which is completely different from argentinian or peruvian cumbia)

I've recently been listening a lot to traditional Chinese music and I am loving it a lot. :)

Also Caetano Veloso

>it's a Sup Forums posts everything except for Western European music to prove how progressive and enlightened they are thread

There's a Persian musician I've liked for a while named Hossein Alizadeh (not Arab, but you might like his stuff).

nah, I was joking.
I'll sound dumb, but I think actualy blues is pretty diverse, specially early blues, its lack of chord progression and harmony concepts made very specific performers. These performers too often made everything sound very similar, but only in their personal catalogues, as they sounded very different from each other.

I was going to post Bartók since he's a national treasure, but I figured someone beat me to it.

Russia, we need to get the /Tuva/ threads going again.

Get that alt-right hate-monger out of Sup Forums thanks

European traditional music is the best in general.

Indonesia is great too but I also like music from the Levant, Turkey and Morocco. The oud is a great instrument.

Not exactly Western. I was thinking along the lines of Gregorian Chant and Celtic/Nordic folk.

ITT: white kids listen to recorded trad music so they can show anonymous strangers how much they "get" it.

>it's a some faggot thinks people only like stuff he doesn't like because they want to look intellectual/cultured episode

Japan definitely because koto is such a beautiful instrument and I love the melancholic sounding scales they use in their traditional music. I wish I could find more of this stuff on CD but they're usually under a rock and expensive as hell.

The UK

I'll agree to disagree on it not being Western. Can get the reasoning behind that opinion (having heard it before), but I'd still disagree.

>ha, you happen to like something that isn't from the US or Europe? what are you,a pretentious faggot?

to be fair, non-western taditional music is bound to be more rhythmically and tonally interesting to a westerner

That's great for you there really pleased about it
bye

Brazil

nois

I disagree. With the exception of something like Gagaku or music from Ryukyu a lot of jap trad music sounds the exact same. Novel at first, but gets boring fast.
