I didn’t! But thanks for doing so. I’ll be posting in this a lot.

Been spinning a bunch of kikagaku moyo lately. Pretty psychedelic stuff.

Mdou Moctar is the man at guitar.

Ran cap Doui is some pretty cool exploratory Vietnamese music collective

Stoked to check out some of the recs in this thread once it gets going.

Afrobeat is a genre that I’ve been digging more and more over the last couple years. Ebo Taylor’s music is so damn cool. I have yet to explore his entire collection but this album is awesome:

Nigerian bop

Quick discussion/pet peeve: Native American music is usually considered world music, even though it’s the most American music there is, technically.
