[23:06] * Lotheric argues that "world music" is not a genre but a dump for genre you can't categorize with genres you know :p

I am also trying to findout what those *are* called by the uh, people that make it. so we have filmi-sangeet instead of "bollywoodmusic" or whatever

(I think the same about "soundtrack" and "classical" too btw)

so, reosarevok: since we actually have some people from india here, we can pick their brainz about various genres of indi-music

how cool would it be if we can end up "educating" people about what the "correct" genre-name is like that? like how we've done with tags for music (ie I'm thinking about Weird al songs and that Rabbit Joint zelda thing)

CatQuest: I was at a "world music" concert on Tuesday, which was basically just African reggae (afro-reggae?), electric afro-pop/rock-ish one-man band (with loop pedals etc., there's probably a more specific term for this 😂), an Indian (Assam) hip hop/rock band, and a Colombian… band. They played a bunch of different "latin" things, some salsa, some "kizomba" (probably not kizomba, since it wasn't in Portuguese and not from Angola, but same

rhythm), ….

So, yeah, most of the time, "world" music is just pop, rock, reggae, hip hop, soul, …, with influences from whatever musical tradition the given musician(s) grew up with.

Which is no different from "western music".

Lotheric: Because: if the first read reads a sector wrong, the read will be cached so 2nd/subsequent reads—used for verifying that the 1st read was correct—will get the cached data, essentially making the verification worthless.

For "normal" CD-DA play, this is not an issue and the caching is good, as it allows the disk to spin less—but for bit-perfect ripping (e.g., what whipper and EAC do), it does matter.

Freso, Is the concert you are going to added to MusicBrainz or can I add it?
Lotheric: i suggest getting an older plextor from that list

all have caching, but this can defeated with a FUA command

well, caching is not an issue for decent rippers, it only makes the process slower
