'The World' was Dissidenten's main musical subject long before such ideas floated into fashion. Over a thirty-year span their projects have ranke not only among the most innovative multicultural collaborations but they also figure among the most telling and groundbreaking contributions to the development and broadening of today's popular music. Since the term 'World Music' entered the music lexicon in the early 1980s their name has been synonymous with, and at the forefront of 'World Music'. After all, it was the Rolling Stone that dubbed Dissidenten "Godfathers of World-Beat" long before the term became popular.
