Upon learning a bit of the back-story, thanks to James and Drago Jajac, I’m all the more intrigued by Jugoton Records, and this phenomenon of cross-cultural East-European music. I spent a little bit of time in Eastern Europe a few years ago, and remember hearing nothing but mainstream American music, mostly weathered and worn-out tunes from the 60′s and 70′s. It’s interesting to think how American pop-culture has influenced the far corners of the music, not to mention film, industry.
Sa pag-aaral ng isang piraso ng mga back-kuwento, salamat sa James at Drago Jajac, ako ang lahat ng mga mas intrigued sa pamamagitan Jugoton Records, at ito kababalaghan ng cross-cultural East-European music. Ginugol ko ang isang maliit na piraso ng oras sa Silangang Europa ng ilang taon na ang nakalilipas, at tandaan walang anuman kundi mainstream Amerikano musika sa pandinig, halos weathered at pagod himig mula sa 60 at 70 ng. Ito ay kagiliw-giliw na isipin kung paano American pop-culture ay naaapektuhan ang malayo sulok ng musika, hindi upang mailakip ang film, industriya.
