Alejandro Toledo -Saxes/Vocals (Argentina)


All bad poetry springs from genuine feeling. For us, we play the music that has remained, our personal companion and ritual. Our folk, our culture. Everyone should keep someone else's diary, so here it's ours. more ...

Dimitris is a virtuoso Bouzouki and Guitar player. His performance has been described by TimeOut magazine as “a bouzouki masterclass“. He studied music at the Conservatory of Ioannina, and is currently one of London’s leading Bouzouki players. As a guitarist he has been interested in Flamenco and Jazz fusion and performed around the UK and Europe with a number of groups and ensembles. His compositions have been presented and broadcasted in the UK, Greece, Spain, Turkey and Argentina. He currently performs as a free lancer and as a member of the bands Depot, Tumba Libre, Moosootoo, and The Plastic Chairs. more ...


Dimitris Koufogiorgos -Bouzouki/Guitar (Greece)


Augustin Colette - Double Bass (France)


Augustin brings a touch of Gypsy Swing to the Magic Tombolinos’ international mix. In the past few years he has been active in Paris playing manouche, Eastern European traditional songs, French chansons, and jazz standards with the Swing Deluxe Collective. His musical background includes experiences as diverse as classical training in cello, playing electric bass in funk bands, and taking part in electric Indian music projects in San Francisco. His fast and solid playing is the cornerstone of the Tombolinos’ frenzied rhythm section. more ...

Nuno studied classical percussion in Portugal at Escola Profissional de Artes da Beira Interior. Through his studies he became knowledgeable in dealing with the most basic musical form to the most challenging one including orchestral performances, Jazz and Latin based music to improvised cacophony. In 2004 he arrived in London and has since been performing and touring abroad with several bands. He is currently completing a Bachelor of Music in Popular Music Performance at UEL University (London) and is also creating and teaching a drum kit program delivered to Primary schools through the organisation Bluenote. more ...

Now he's a virtuouso accordionist who specializes in Eastern-european music. Along with his Piatanesi accordion, he has performed extensively around Europe with differend bands, playing various styles such as Argentinian Tango, Klezmer, comedy shows, and theater. He is also a composer and actor. more ...

Jozef started to play percussion at the age of 15 on bongos. Through the years playing with various bands he explored many musical styles such a folk, swing, Latin, jazz and fusion. He has explored African and Afro-Cuban percussions with master drummers from Senegal, Cuba and Puerto Rico. He took part to percussion masterclasses in London with Giovanni Hidalgo, Luis Conte, and Equie Castrillo, and in Cuba with Puchito (Afro-Cuba de Matanzas). He is bringing to the Magic Tombolinos his own interpretation of Eastern European rythms mixed with latin vibes. more ...

Alejandro Toledo and the Magic Tombolinos
NU Power Ethno Music

This hot new sextet is made up of traveling musicians from different parts of the globe (Argentina, France, Greece, Portugal, Slovakia, United Kingdom), who bring together their backgrounds and experiences in a celebration of music with no regional boundaries.

Led by Alejandro Toledo (former student of Peter Freeman [Classical Sax] and Daniel Ivancea [Gypsy Sax], also currently PhDcandidate in Balkan Gypsy Saxophone Performance), this high energy band delivers the most exciting performances Balkanik ethnic music has to offer.

Our ever-evolving musical idiom reflects the way we think and live. Our music, among other things, is a conjunction of various influences (Classical, Rock, Gypsy, African, Middle-Eastern, Latin, and Hip-Hop rhythms) which we bring from places we have lived, visited, or simply the music we like, and have filtered through our own distinct voice.

Pradox vs Bassid ‘Exfoliator’ digital ep is out! :)

It is a fateful occurrence meeting a soulmate on life’s trip whose points of view, taste, and interests are so homogeneous to your own that words are unnecessary in process of creating and composing! The duet project of Bassid vs Pradox is an example of one of these chance encounters. Every track is a masterpiece guiding you through thought, travel, dream, and freakout through dance. Their sound is flawless and full of inspirational harmonies. Bassid vs Pradox’s music is one reason why Arkona Creation Music and Art Label has been created! This music is a true stimulus in keeping ourselves and other positive and full of joy!

1. JAMON... Imagine being in a funky ping-pong game of sounds in an animated battlefield. This pumping bass beats and intriguing background pads of whistling, flying, and shooting keep your body moving and your mood in curiously high spirits.

2. TRAMPOLINE... Is a progressive piece of musical cake filled with funky bass and combined with a variety of percussion elements to propel you slowly across the dance floor. As if on a magical train expelling colorful steam, we are transported to a fairy tale land full of funky characters.

3. UNLOCK... With instinctive synths and a progressive trance bass, this track is an intelligent blend of technique and style. The abysmal depth of tunes build up a ritualistic intensity which can easily guide one through the 5th dimension.
