WEF (World Entertainment Friday), Week 27
Weekly selection of somewhat unusual music from around the world
From the darkest corners of YouTube, here are some songs that you’re unlikely to ever hear on FM radio.
If you know something that would fit in, let me know in the comments.
Artist: ნინო ნაყეური (Nino Nakeuri)
Title: ვბერდები უშენოდ (vberdebi ushenod)
Country: Sakartvelo («Georgia the country»)
Year: 2024
Those who have been with us for a long time might remember Lela Nakeuri; this is her sister Nino and their mother whose name for some reason stays secret.
As for the song, it’s a folk song, something about the sad fate of an old maid but I’m going to need a bigger dictionary to translate it accurately.
Artist: Bloodywood
Title: Machi Bhasad (Expect a Riot)
Country: India
Year: 2019
We’ve had a shortage of heavy music lately, so there’s some «Indian folk metal». Yes, it’s a real thing, and it’s very loud.
Artist: Colibri bri bri
Title: Suelta el miedo (Let the Fear Go)
Country: Spain
Year: 2021
And in case you’ve been traumatized by the previous track, here’s some new age «healing music» from Spain. YMMV, no warranty of effectiveness.
