STEIM Radio #6. The Future Sounds of Folk in The Netherlands.
Imagining the sounds of the post-folk. The Future Sounds Of Folk takes diverse musical traditions as a starting point for the development of new amalgams of contemporary music. In 2010, STEIM supported Singaporean musician Marc Chia aka One Man Nation’s research in Indonesia to work with local musicians and organized events. There he met Sudanese musician Jimbot and instrument builder and musician Bambu Wukir.
