How can you never hear about music from this whole continent? All of it sucks? Can they make good music?

they are primitive people

Literally every music theory textbook, lecture, youtuber, etc mentions gamelan. Every single one does the requisite "this is how music theory works in the Western tradition, but there others, such as Indian music and the gamelan of Indonesia" disclaimer, and it's always Indian music and gamelan that get mentioned.
OP you're just admitting you've never learnt the tiniest bit about music.

I got some bangers for you anon.
Many of these languages sound made up when spoken but can be quite beautiful when sung.

Can be a bit tricky to find stuff from certain parts of SEA due to things happening there.
Like in Cambodia, a lot of music records got destroyed and the artists jailed or executed. A lot of music got lost to time.

I have some weird ass tunes from Burma and Borneo too but that is just psychotic. But if anyone is interested i will hook you up.
Might have some from the other countries as well but it would need to check.

I remember clicking on that section in Microsoft's Encarta Interactive Encyclopedia on PC-DVD for Windows XP and thinking "okay but that's not actually music"

Link everything man, i'm listening and loving it

My favorite grindcore band, Wormrot, is Singaporean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJGYqFAzsHc

There's also a great gorenoise band from Thailand named Cystgurgle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHrmhx2lhyc

It's just a coincidence both bands are grind. I'm not actually a huge grind fan. Maybe the region is really into grind? idk

Nothing good comes out of Southeast Asia. Horrible place.

>>129969542
Singapore is richer than most countries, outside Switzerland and Luxembourg. And safer. On the less rich end, a lot of people enjoy Thailand. It's not dangerous.

Love that ultra-fast Chechen dance music but it's impossible to find online

There's this skramz band from Malaysia named Piri Reis who played at New Friends Fest in Toronto last year. The general consensus among the attendees seems to be that Piri Reis put on one of the best performances of the entire festival.

I stumbled across a couple bands I like whilst learning Malay

That's referred to as "East" Asia isn't it?
>>
>>129965184
Have you never seen a map?
What makes you think any of those countries are south?
They're the northernmost part of Asia you can get.
>>
>>129977764
it was based on my knowledge of videogame companies calling it SEA in reference to CHN/KOR/JPN markets. but perhaps SEA would include Thailand, Singapore, Philippines, etc.
>>
what's this gamelan stuff everyone's talking about
>>
>>129981046
Weird stuff even by world music standards imo, and I'm pretty damn tolerant of different genres. This is an example of the one that was deemed good enough for aliens to listen to on the Voyager Golden Record so you tell me

Puremoon, mathy dream pop from Indonesia, I like what they do:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQI4kkq7Gw8

There's also LAIR from the same country, psych/folk/funk rock. They're doing pretty well for themselves:

why does the right half of papua not count as southeast asian
>>
"Ampun Bang Jago" is a great song
>>
>>129983076
the left half is indonesia, south east asia
the right half is papua new guinea, west pacific island nations
different cultures
let's not even start the controversy of insondesia doing genocide in that island to take it all over

Sorry but you're not gonna get dirty Malaysian girlbussy by simply complimenting Malaysian bands for being Malaysian

>>129956236
Not music.
>>
>>129957592
I am, unfortunately, aware. Get over yourselves.
>>
>>129969448

>>
>>129984274 different cultures
No. West Papua is papuan.

antarctica was awesome until the poles shifted
