    ones - the Mexicans might like it for the beat, and the Japanese for
    the melody, etc).

    msh butts in:
    But what if it is DQ shining through? And some people from some
    cultures don't like DQ-inspired music from other cultures because
    they are trapped by their own culture's static patterns, and can't
    see it? That is, they don't like it because most others in their
    society don't like it.

    On the other had, some may be more willing to respond to the free
    flow and interchange of ideas, in this case cultural ideas, and
    therefore be able to make the DQ connection.

    Best,
