- "Los Niños de los Ojos Rojos", NOR, son una banda internacional de Folk y World Music, que llevan años fusionando magistralmente Rap, Reggae, Rock, Ska, Funk y música balcánica, irlandesa y extremeña, entre otras. Desde el año 2000 no han parado de subirse a los escenarios y en todo este tiempo han ofrecido cerca de mil conciertos por todo el mundo. Ahora vienen a nuestro programa con nuevo trabajo grande: "Hard Folk". Es su quinto trabajo de estudio y en esta nueva entrega, la banda nos invita a sumergirnos en un viaje donde la música se convierte en el hilo conductor de una experiencia en la que se celebra la vida, el ritmo, y la palabra. "Hard Folk" es un disco que suena muy bien, con una cuidada producción y vuelve a confirmar a NOR como uno de los referentes internacionales dentro de la World Music. Hablamos con los miembros del grupo y disfrutamos con este nuevo trabajo.- "Los premios de fotoperiodismo Luis Valtueña", organizados por la ong "Médicos del Mundo",celebran su vigesimonovena edición con trabajos fotográficos brillantes que nos hacen sentir, pensar, tomar conciencia y nos invitan a no callar sobre los hechos y situaciones que retratan a lo largo de nuestro mundo. Este año el ganador ha sido Samuel Nacar, con su proyecto "Las sombras ya tienen nombre", en que refleja el horror de la cárcel de Sednaya, en Siria, símbolo de la represión del régimen de Bashar al-Ashad. También hay trabajos brillantes sobre el genocidio en Gaza, a cargo del fotógrafo palestino Jehad Alshrafi, la situación de las mujeres en Afganistán reflejada por la fotógrafa italiana Valentina Sinis y la riada de Valencia en 2024, documentada por el fotógrafo Santi Palacios en su proyecto "Nadie llegó a tiempo", reconocido varias veces con este premio Luis Valtueña. La exposición con estos proyectos galardonados se puede visitar hasta el 28 de febrero en la sede de la Fundación Ortega-Marañon, en Madrid, hasta el 28 de febrero.

SUPPORT THIS PODCAST!Join PatreonGet some merch~~~~FEATURED SONGREC feat. Pescelet – “Mind Repüljön” (from IT WASN'T ME!)~~~~This week's episode may be one of the most important of Season 8, if not this entire show. And it might be one of the timeliest.The US has an amazing array of music, but we don't know everything. While we've often gotten crossover artists from the UK, Canada & Australia, as well as a few other non-English countries, most of what we hear is homegrown.That means there's a literal WORLD OF MUSIC we know nothing about. Other countries have hugely popular, legendary, million selling artists we've NEVER HEARD OF. This episode is my small effort to correct that, and expose us to music we SHOULD KNOW that's every bit as good as what we DO KNOW.I profile artists from 25 countries that never quite broke in the States, and hopefully inspire you to give them a listen.What bands or artists from other countries come to mind that you think American listeners don't know at all? Are you surprised that the artists I mentioned were so huge? Does any of this make you want to listen for yourself? And does it make you think differently about other cultures? Discuss dammit!BONUS MxTRA: All Western music has been shaped by Germany Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This week's quiz: On 13 December, I asked you a question about Paul Myers' article “Nigeria power past Mozambique into quarterfinals at Africa Cup of Nations”. Nigeria had just beaten Mozambique 4 to 0. Paul noted in his article that the win was the biggest winning margin in a Cup of Nations knockout tie since the Africa Cup in 2010. And that was one of your questions: you were to tell me which countries played in the Africa Cup semi-finals in 2010, and who won that knockout tie by 4 to 0. The second question was: In the Nigeria/Mozambique match, what is the name of the Nigerian player who scored the fourth goal? The answer is, to quote Paul's article: “Akor Adams, fed by Lookman, thrashed in Nigeria's fourth goal 15 minutes from time to notch up the biggest winning margin in a Cup of Nations knockout tie since Egypt battered Algeria 4-0 in the semi-finals at the 2010 tournament in Angola.” So, Egypt/Algeria, and Akor Adams are the correct answers. In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question, suggested by RFI Listeners Club member Pradip Basak from West Bengal, India: “How do you deal with jealousy when your friend achieves something you secretly wished for?” Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us! The winners are: Amir Jameel, the president of the RFI Online Visitors Club in Sahiwal, Pakistan.  Amir is also the winner of this week's bonus question. Congratulations on your double win, Amir. Also on the list of lucky winners this week are Sharifun Islam Nitu, a member of the RFI Amour Fan Club in Rajshahi, Bangladesh, and Faheem Noor, the president of the WULO RFI Club in Nankana Sahib, Pakistan. There are also two RFI Listeners Club members: Hans Verner Lollike from Hedehusene, Denmark, and S. J. Agboola from Ekiti State, Nigeria. Congratulations winners! Here's the music you heard on this week's programme: “Heer on Sarangi”, traditional music from Pakistan performed by Ustad Sultan Khan; “Water No Get Enemy” by Fela Kuti, performed by Fela Ransome Kuti & Africa 70; “The Flight of the Bumblebee” by Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov; “The Cakewalk” from Children's Corner by Claude Debussy, performed by the composer; “Happy” by Pharrell Williams, and the traditional Andalucian “La Saeta del Larios”, sung by Diana Navarro.

This week's quiz: On 13 December, I asked you a question about the then-new US security strategy, which presented Europe as lacking in "self-confidence" and facing "civilizational erasure" due to immigration. You were to re-read our article “EU Council president rejects political influence in US security plan”, and send in the answer to this question: What did the EU Council president, Antonio Costa, say about the difference in the idea of “free speech” between Europe and the United States? The answer is, to quote our article: "The United States cannot replace Europe in what its vision is of freedom of expression,” Costa said. "There is no freedom of speech if citizens' freedom of information is sacrificed to defend the techno oligarchs in the United States." In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question, suggested by RFI Listeners Club member Jayanta Chakrabarty from New Delhi, India. Jayanta's question was: “What inspiring act have you witnessed that could motivate a nation or society?” Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us!

This week's quiz: On 6 December, I asked you a question from Jan van der Made's article and interview with Claudiu Nasui, a former Romanian economy minister and a current member of parliament in the pro-European Save Romania Union party. You were to re-listen to, or re-read, Jan's “On NATO's eastern flank, Romania finds itself at the crux of European security”, and send in the answer to this question: What does Nasui think is the core issue for defence spending? What does he think the EU needs to do? The answer is, to quote Jan's article: “It's also about spending efficiency. We should buy more European – like the SAM-T and other weapon systems – to achieve economies of scale. For cheap, efficient weapon systems, you need economies of scale, which we won't get if we don't buy European. So it's about more than just investing money – how you invest matters.” In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question, suggested by RFI Listeners Club member Debashis Gope from West Bengal, India. Debashis asked: “What is the most precious thing in life?” Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us! The winners are: RFI English listener Khondaker Rafiq ul Islam from Naogaon, Bangladesh.

In this episode, I sit down with singer, songwriter, bassist, and musical innovator Scott Mulvahill for a wide-ranging conversation about curiosity, collaboration, and building creative worlds. We start by talking about Scott's recent trip to Lafayette, Louisiana, where he performed Paul Simon's Graceland in a profoundly meaningful way, including sharing the stage with original Zydeco musicians who appeared on the album. Scott explains why Graceland was such a formative record for him as a teenager, how it shaped his love of songwriting, groove, and global musical connections, and why revisiting that music continues to teach him something new every time he performs it.We talk about Scott's busy life as a touring musician and collaborator, from solo performances to regional shows, symphonic work with Cody Fry, and juggling multiple projects at once. Scott reflects on saying yes to opportunities, spinning multiple creative plates, and why he's drawn to work that keeps him challenged rather than comfortable. He shares the story behind his band Slap Dragon, how the group came together organically, and why playing in a band scratches a different creative itch than performing solo. We also explore the balance between solitude and community in music, and how collaboration continues to fuel his artistic growth.A significant part of the conversation centers on Scott's experience as a singing bassist. We dig into the technical and musical challenges of singing while playing bass, especially in groove-heavy music, and how performing complex material like Graceland forces constant growth. Scott explains how difficulty, discipline, and repetition sharpen his musicianship and why pushing himself technically ultimately leads to deeper musical freedom.We also spend time talking about Scott's years playing with Ricky Skaggs, an experience he describes as musical graduate school. Scott shares what it was like to step into a bluegrass tradition without a drum set, how time feels differently in that genre, and why it took nearly a year to feel comfortable in the band. He reflects on learning directly from masters, developing an intuitive sense of rhythm, and why that experience shaped him as a musician in lasting ways.Finally, we dive deep into one of Scott's most ambitious projects, the Database. Scott explains the origin and evolution of this custom-built upright bass with integrated MIDI triggers and sampling, how it works technically, and why it allows him to expand his sonic world without sacrificing creativity or authenticity. We talk about technology as a tool rather than a gimmick, the balance between production and performance, and how the Database has reshaped his approach to songwriting, arrangement, and live shows. It's a thoughtful, inspiring conversation about experimentation, craftsmanship, and following curiosity wherever it leads.To learn more about Scott, visit his website.Music from the Episode:Begin Againers (Scott Mulvahill)Fighting for the Wrong Side (Scott Mulvahill)Survive (Scott Mulvahill)Thank you for listening.

https://www.worldmusiccollective.org/InstagramFacebook BioThe World Music Collective is a mixed-instrumentation chamber ensemble featuring internationally recognized performers, composers, and improvisers from Washington, D.C.'s vibrant music scene. Rooted in community and driven by adventurous composition, the group blends jazz, classical, Indian classical, and global traditions through dynamic improvisation. Their latest single, “Caravan,” reimagines Duke Ellington's jazz standard through a rich, multi-instrumental lens where textures shift fluidly and cultures intersect. Led by saxophonist and clarinetist Noah Getz, the six-member ensemble treats improvisation as musical conversation—embracing spontaneity, collaboration, and deep listening. More than a genre, “world music” for the collective reflects a living, communal sound shaped by diverse backgrounds and shared creative exploration.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I reconnect with conductor and educator Aaron Kula, who shaped my summers in the Chautauqua Youth Orchestra at the Chautauqua Institution in New York in 1994 and 1995. We talk about what it means to trust young musicians with major repertoire, including the time we took on Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring, and what that experience taught me about preparation, accountability, and confidence. Aaron shares his philosophy for building ensemble culture: learning every student's name, holding individuals responsible while serving the collective, and making the rehearsal process both rigorous and engaging. We dig into how his multi-genre musical life, from classical training to folk and ethnic traditions, and his deep connection to Jewish music, shaped the way he hears rhythm, style, and culture inside the orchestra. Aaron also explains how conducting changes when moving from the concert stage to ballet, how tempo becomes a real-time collaboration with dancers, and why a conductor has to know when to lead, when to release, and when to stay out of the players' way. This conversation is equal parts music, mentorship, and reflection, and a reminder that the seeds teachers plant can continue to grow for decades. I'm grateful for the chance to say thank you, and for the lessons from those summers that still guide how I work with students and teams today.To learn more about Aaron, visit his website. Thank you for listening. If you have questions, feedback, or ideas for the show, please email me at brad@thebandwichtapes.com.
