Hello, Dear Polyglot Community! This is Alberto, from Mexico.
So, for many years, I have been searching for a variety of artists singing in different languages, but honestly, I still haven’t found as many genres (or at least, the ones I’m most interested in) in some languages as I’d hoped. Any suggestions, or does it sound good if we gather in one of the Zoom rooms during our free time to chat about it and share some info: genres, singers, and so on? Always eager to discover more about lesser-known bands.
I have found some musical groups just by taking in content in other languages in my studies. I listen to music in Spanish, English, German, Romanian, Nigerian Pidgin, and a few others. I try, occasionally, to check out the songs that content creators are playing in the background of their Reels/TikToks/Shorts. And sometimes I use Spotify and use the search terms “(country of choice) pop music” You can pick any genre. Or check YouTube for language of choice music lists. Perhaps, I will be around the Moon Cafe and can offer further explanations of my ways of finding music.
