Paparian sorely lacks creative music composers/producers andmusicians to the extent they redoolder songs and claim it as their own.
An example is the local-heavy metal band,"Blatant Liars",who have made millions singing songs from Elvis,The Beatles,Kelly Clarkson,Psy and countless others."Blatant Liars" does not bother to give credit and even claim they were the original singer and composer.
Their latest best-seller was the Britney Spears song "Toxic".
Paparian's Dearest Leader,whosemusical taste is questionable,is apparently a fan of this group.

what exactly is musical theater? I never heard of that kind of music. Music in our country sounds like Secret Garden, and celtic sounds mixed with classical folk electronic

Rock & Roll is still primitive in our nation, it's still in the Beach Boys-esque phase.

Big band is still popular.

By far, rock is the most popular genre in Urcea. Generally, it extends to classic rock but contemporary mainstream rock consists of what might be considered the college rock genre.

Music--particularly dance music--is the heart and soul of Sea Pony culture. The ritual song & dance duels between rival Sea Pony crews are the way we decide political and social issues among us, namely who gets to run what turf.

YellowApplan musical tastes are quite diverse; however, they tend toward electronic and folk/country genres, with those two genres more often than not intertwining in curious ways. Much of this is due to the prevalence of electronic instrumentation; to a YellowApplan, electronic instrumentation is "traditional".
