WEF (World Entertainment Friday), Week 21
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: Auļi
Title: Jūra (Sea)
Country: Latvia
Year: 2021
They call it «ethno-trance», I call it «post-folk», it’s good either way.
Artist: Fasıl-ı Jazz
Title: Yekte
Country: Turkey
Year: 2024
It has precious little to do with jazz but I don’t know the history behind the name. Still one of the most interesting finds lately.
Artist: Simentera
Title: Dia C'Tchuva Bem
Country: Cape Verde
Year: 1995
One of the biggest names in Caboverdean music some 20-30 years ago, now virtually forgotten.
Love the first “post folk” thank you
None of these were bad. But I love the first one. That first group has an album on You Tube. It’s good!
