On this episode of A Bit of Culture, Kam Raslan welcomes Pusaka's Pauline Fan and The Ricecooker Archives' Joe Kidd to complete our cultural trident and discuss The Beatles, expressions in traditional artforms and new sounds. Kam kicks it off by taking us back through rock n' roll history with the impact of Beatlemania and what it entailed. Pauline then brings up the concept of "angin"; prevalent in traditional dances from the East Coast of Malaysia. Our conversation turns to the musician in the room, as Joe Kidd discusses his methods in discovering new music and opens up his topic to find out how Kam and Pauline discover new sounds.
