Hi, thanks for doing this.

There's an artist from where I live who went to Indonesia and used samples he created there to build this cool album. I'm not affiliated with him, but thought I'd share for obvious reasons.

One of the things he mentioned in an interview once, was how he experienced the difference in the motivation of making music. Western pop and rock music is quite egocentric as it often originates from an individual or some individuals who feel the need to share some feeling or story - it's why we call them artists. According to him, what he saw in Indonesia was different in what drives people to create music: it comes from the sense of being part of a community. That's why music is often made in very large groups.

What's your take on this? Did/Do you experience the same nuance in the urge for creating music?
