Is world music moving from being granola crunchy to cutting edge? Or
was it only some people's perception that it was granola crunchy? Did
you know there are two new world music clubs in New York City: Drom,
started by the relatively young Rom-centric music promoters behind the
New York Gypsy Festival, and perhaps more surprisingly (because it is
in Harlem), The Shrine, named after Fela's place in Lagos and I hear run by an African man. Not the world music of yesteryear.
