We implore all artists and fans to assist in the struggle to retain and maintain authentic old pre-electronic age music genres which have been passed down over the centuries and to eschew with vigor any invasion by western contemporary and pop styles. When massive modernization is forced on us by multinational corporations to undermine and eradicate traditional arts, the result is cultural genocide which is more devastating than any holocaust. Phasing out valuable authentic ancient traditions by polluting them with low-level contemporary pop styles eventually erases our roots and leaves us as naught but dust to be blown to oblivion by the evil winds of commercialism and consumerism wherein there is no place for acoustic ethnic instruments. Please help fight cultural genocide by avoiding all electronic, modernized and westernized cheap 'art.' Let's fight to keep our roots from being severed and avoid being turned into zombified consumers of contemporary crassness. It is time for all music to go green, to turn from crass thumping noise and ugly electronics.
