Despite a global pandemic, there continued to be a steady stream of global sounds throughout 2020. And if we couldn’t travel literally, perhaps more of us will be inclined to do so musically and discover some of the great work that musicians from all around the world have to offer.
This year you could travel the Silk Road from one end with the Chinese band Manhu and Mongolian ensemble Khusugtun to the other with Turkish oud player Mehmet Polat or explore the whole route with 3,14 (whose 2020 release takes its title from the scientific name for the silk worm.)
It’s hard to resist almost any Afrobeat, and there were quite a number of choices this year, but especially so if you go to the source (Nigeria’s Bantu) or one of its more unlikely outposts (Lithuania’s Ojibo Afrobeat).
