Hi All - I am beginning my digital nomad experience in about 2 weeks, I am driving from the Kansas City area and have an Airbnb for 30 days in Santa Monica. After 30 days there, I'm planning to spend 30 days in San Diego, then 30 days in San Francisco and I might go to Honolulu for 7 days somewhere in there for just vacation.
All that is paid for to this point is the Airbnb in Santa Monica because I've never done this so I'm a little curious to see how this goes, if it sucks too much I'll go back to Kansas City and possibly to Chicago. The biggest debate I have right now is whether or not to bring a portable monitor and a 27" monitor with me, I have a PS5 and I was hoping to bring it along with the 27" monitor with me but if I didn't bring the PS5, I probably wouldn't need the 27" monitor so I'm debating about leaving it at home. Since I'm going to be driving, I was going to give it a shot, any thoughts on this? Everything is well within the return window right now so I can take anything back that I need to
The 2 monitors I have right now are:

Any other thoughts that anybody else has are welcome too for someone that is brand new to this are welcome as well
Gamad music is a style of music from West Sumatra, Indonesia. It developed in the 14th and 15th centuries from Malay, Indian, Portuguese, Minang (the predominant culture in West Sumatra) and Middle Eastern music traditions. Many gamad songs date back to the 15th century, at least the traditional ones, though more modern ones have been written recently as the 70’s and 80’s and even newer. Some famous singers and bands of Gamad music are Yan Juneid, Rosnida YS, Rustam Raschani, Lime Stone Band, Orkes Gamad Lina Runtuah, and various groups. More modern artists like Mandayu Gamad have revitalized it among the Minang youth for the full ensemble format.
Gamad bands usually consist of various Western instruments and Asian instruments, the Western instruments include accordion, guitar (acoustic or electric), keyboard, saxophone, bass (bass guitar or upright bass), drum kit, Gendang (a frame drum found in Minang and Malay culture), congas, bongos, cowbell, tambourine, and timbales or in modern times the electronic keyboard or various VSTs (mainly Nexus, Hypersonic, and similar ones). In Indonesia this is called ‘orgen tunggal’ (which is literally single organ) or ‘Electone’ (which is the trademark for electric organs made by Yamaha). Some songs may incorporate traditional Minang instruments like bansi, sarunai, and saluang which are woodwinds, and talempong which is a set of gong chimes.
There are 2 modern forms. The Gamad band using the full ensemble, which is often labeled ‘asli’ which means native. There also are variants like ‘Joget Gamad’, ‘Gamad Cha Cha’, ‘Gamad Rumba’, ‘Gamad Dangdut’, and ‘Gamad Remix’ which are usually made using a keyboard arranger or DAW and VSTs.
These are some audio examples

Why is Korean mythology and tradition so unheard of in the west compared to countries like Japan and China?
Hello everyone! It has been a life long dream of my mom to travel to greenland. She has decided she wants to go next summer and already decided on two different tours she would like to join: one would go to the east (starting in Tasiilag), the other one would go to the West (Disko Bay, Kangerlussuaq...). Both are two weeks and include a lot of hiking. It is especially important for her to see icebergs. The Tour in the east is less expensive and less touristy but my Mom is afraid the icebergs there are less impressive. She can't decide. Does anybody know more about this?
I searched at major music stores and libraries in Canada and they mostly focus on the European musical tradition, with a small world music section added on. Is there not a large student market for historical flute music from regions such as China, India, Indonesia...etc?
The store clerk recognized the fact that they were lacking in music from Asia and apologized that I didn't find what I was looking for. Is written music really so ingrained as part of "Western Culture" so even if I visit a large library in China or India to look for their collection of print traditional music, it wouldn't exist or even be comparable to the Western music tradition? There should be so many historic and modern tunes for the Chinese dizi and guzheng but it appears not many pieces can be found in book form.
Hal Leonard has a collection of short folk songs from cultures including Japan, Korea, China, Malay, Ireland.

I understand that there may not be musical notation in early China and lots of tunes are in the numbered jianpu system. Even if traditional music is mostly aural, wouldn't musicologists have transcribed more pieces for Western musical notation by now? unless this is against cultural practices or seen as offensive
