The following is our findings from research into the connection between music games and the cultures they originate from.
Research Findings
In our first hour of research, we found out that searching on the Internet for music games (the kind we were looking for) was difficult because of a few things:
1. Many music VIDEO games came up, which we were not looking for
2. Even when we searched without the word computer in it (by putting a - sign beside it "-computer") we found games to play on paper instead of in groups
Even when we did find the right kind of music games, we could not find a connection to the culture it came from.
Here are some games we found:
1. Noble Duke of York - England - Mr. N said that Dukes are found in England and other places in Europe, not in China or the United States
2. Stella Ella Ola - Spain / Canada (2 groups found different Countries of Origin)
3. Musical Statues - ?
Mr. N also told us about a game from the Carribean Island of Trinidad called "Missy-La, Massa-La". The game is connected to the culture because of the use of the instruments called Steel Pans or Steel Drums. A version of the song can be heard clicking here.
