I've always thought that some avant noise artist would record the perfect noise album with Cajun musicians. I can also see some sort of merger of the Tejano / Zydeco sounds in the near future.

I've been listening to Cajun and Zydeco for quite a few years now. A couple of years ago I bought a job lot ex-jukebox of Cajun 7" singles from a man in Louisiana.
Alas just about all of my Cajun records went when I sold all my vinyl.
La Valse de Kaplan by the Balfa Brothers never fails to bring a tear to my eye.
