What's up with the tremendous lack of good music here...

What's up with the tremendous lack of good music here? You'd think that a country this big would at show some signs of discernible talent, but no. Literally zero talent. What a shame.

lol. Serious answer though: virtually all American pop music can trace its influences back to African music via slave spirituals.

tinariwen a goat

Traditional African drumming is fascinating if you take the time to study it and figure out what they're doing. It's basically trance-inducing.

It's complex, precise music that's worth learning about. Or you can just be a pleb and tell yourself they're just beating on shit randomly or impulsively.

only african album i have man sorry

It's american music. Africa is too poor to make music, so black americans do it for them.

>tfw they are from Africa

fuck i dont know any names but sometimes my mom plays like African pop and it sounds pretty good. maybe not if you dont listen to Caribbean music much.

but even aside from that there is still more good music that comes from Africa or that is inspired by African music

gommunism was a mistake

african music revitalized paul simons career

it was all that genocidal revisionist communism courtesy of mao

The PR Mongolia was a satellite state of the Soviet Union

>he doesn't know the Tuareg Rock scene
Tell me OP, how does it feel being a huge pleb?

>Communism was a mistake
>Doesn't know cuban music

might have to do with the the tremendous lack of achievement in other, more critical areas besides music.

Do you know nothing about the Chinese Indie scene? It also has good metal, folk, and noise acts.

this, tureg rock is amazing

>William Onyeabor
>Fela Kuti
>Africa Express
>Remi Kabaka

>Afrobeat
>African funk in general
there is great music from there, you're just too much of a pleb to know about it

>the chinese indie scene
I honestly do not, can you rec me anything?

Virtually no proper education in music theory is the obvious big hitter, but there's a million and one other factors including but not limited to

>recording technology (or lack thereof)
>religion
>evolution
>a few hundred years late to the piano
>small market
>zero music related media

or just

>no rock or pop music
>waah why doesn't any good music come from here

Check out Maybe Mars records, they're a really good indie label. Dear Eloise, Carsick Cars, White+, Boyz and Girl, Skip Skip Ben Ben and Hiperson are all good and I believe you can find their stuff in the archive. Also check out Mamer for his experimental and steppe folk stuff.
I am not that well versed in metal or noise, but I do like Torturing Nurse.

You fucking idiot. You should move to Africa and try to become a successful musician. Report back. Oh wait, it's not going to happen. Please kill yourself, OP.
