Ethnic
Ethnic music, which emerged from various global cultures, is essentially what happens when people start putting traditional sounds on a pedestal, often in quite ornate and enticing ways. It typically features distinctive instruments and rhythms that could make anyone feel like they're in an exotic market, even if they're just down the local pub.
More about Ethnic
It's nice to think that whilst we've created pop hits that will last precisely three minutes, some cultures have been perfecting their tunes for centuries, proving that good music truly is timeless.
