The Creation Of Syncos Genre Music
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
'Syncos music is a music genre originating in Ghana by a record label known as Scratch Studios. It contains elements of Afro jazz, Afro rock and Afro beat. The usage of the "Atumpan" a traditional musical instrument part of the Fontomfrom drum orchestra and the Gankeke, a sort of cowbells, to vary and maintain the tempo is a
n integral part of the rhythm.'
SYNCOS MUSIC is the synchronization of the "Soul" in African traditional rhythms with the 'soul' in other musical spectra into one beautiful world melody. SYNCOS MUSIC maintains its cultural authenticity whilst embracing and encompassing change and expansion into the contemporary mainstream musical expression. In a cultural sense, SYNCOS MUSIC is more important than just music, in that it is an audible and living representation of Ghanaian history, philosophies, ethics, spoken literature, moral values, and social code of conduct, religious beliefs, political thought and aesthetic principles coupled with the emergence of a global village
