Jadili Sessions is a platform dedicated to thought-provoking panel discussions and deep dives into various aspects of music, culture, and creativity. In these sessions, we bring together artists, entrepreneurs, and experts from diverse creative backgrounds to explore complex topics and spark meaningful conversations. From examining the ethics of sampling traditional instruments and cultures, to discussing the history of electronic music and the role of traditional music in contemporary contexts.
This Jadili was a deep dive into the ethics of sampling traditional instruments and cultures. This complex topic raises questions about cultural appropriation, intellectual property rights, and artistic expression.
The conversation was interspersed with performances and demonstrations that attempted to unpack some of the knotty questions around this theme.
We were honoured to welcome Olith Ratego and Sven Kacirek of Odd Okoddo, Labdi and Bernt Isak of Unganisha, David Tinning and LaMusicJunkie.
