Our pop music is indeed with eastern flavour from our Byzantine heritage. I like it.
Who doesnt like, dont need to listen to it. Big deal.

I guess you would consider all traditional Macedonian, Bulgarian, Greek, Aromanian or Albanian music oriental then?

has to sound completely Oriental to your ears
Why are you trying so hard to make it seem as if the Serbs are all exactly the same? I'm not saying that we're completely different, nor do I deem the Serbs from Serbia to be inferior. It's actual diversity, not cultural racism, and it's nothing to be ashamed of. It doesn't mean that I'm somehow undermining the unity of the Serbs if I'm discussing the differences present among various regions.
You're acting as if heritage, genetics and surroundings of the person don't influence the person one bit, and we're all a "tabula rasa". On the contrary, I believe that our ancestry impacts and defines us in certain ways, even if we've got a free will and everyone is a unique person to a certain extent.
An example of Krajina Serb traditional singing 'ojakanje.' It is archaic way of singing.
