Roadmusic Productions is an independent label for audio-visual ethnic projects.
Roadmusic Productions moves to different countries and continents to implement the concept of transculturation, where sounds and ideas of different cultures influence the music. Transculturation is the musical expression of Roadmusic's anthropological research!
