i am still confused as to what people mean when they say "asian music". i mean asia is a big fucking place with a ton of countries, each of which (for the most part) has a rich history, its own culture if not many different cultures and histories. so i am not really sure what anybody, except for someone deeply rooted in western prejudice and misconceptions of "the east" could mean when they declare that an entire continent's music sucks or that most of its music "seems to be some weird tacky interpretation of other music."
