I'm not a native english speaker and what i meant was iconic, not ethnic. Fixed the title - my bad.
This experiment is about helping people explore music of other cultures, in any language.
For example, there is likely no band performing Mongolian throat singing in Yoruba, and we explored how it might've sounded like.
If we're going to improve humanity by being pluralistic and open to understanding other cultures, that must come from examining the conditions and content of that culture itself, not any simulation of them. We can't get closer to people by avoiding talking to them, listening to them, reading their writing, eating their food, going to their temples, etc.
AI helps with none of that but it could fool people into thinking they had done those things.
