Wild and energetic dance tunes from or inspired by (obviously) the Balkans, but also (among others) Eastern Europe, Gypsy brass, Russia, Klezmer...
Sounds Like
BALKAN BEAT BOX Blew us all away in October 2008 - a remarkable live act combining every thing that is brilliant about Balkan Gypsy music successfully crossing over into modern techno - unforgetable! Please take a look:

This is irresistible dance music -
No holds-barred nights of the finest live acts, unhinged dancing,
perspiring bodies, banging DJ sets, all tinged with that compelling
Eastern European flavour...

De Gentse Bolwerkfanfare is reeds verdwenen sinds 10 januari 2009. Doorgedreven speurwerk heeft niks opgeleverd De onzekerheid van haar lotsbestemming maakt het nog zwaarder om dragen,maar we moeten sterk zijn en aanvaarden:
DE BOLWERKFANFARE IS NIET MEER
Wij willen op 17 april samen met u een laatste eerbetoon brengen aan de Bolwerkfanfare. Blijf niet met je verdriet zitten, gedeelde smart is halve smart!
De dienst wordt ingekleed door de dames van RouwendeVrouwen.com en om 20h30 opgeluisterd door Rat Ka Bay Bal, een gezelschap dat ons eigenlijk volslagen vreemd is, maar dat beweert de Bolwerkfanfare zeer goed gekend te hebben.
------------------------------------------------- LA BOLWERKFANFARE N’EST PLUS
La cérémonie sera conduite par les dames de RouwendeVrouwen.com et accompagnée musicalement par Rat Ka Bay Bal, une compagnie inconnue qui néanmoins affirme avoir connu la Bolwerkfanfare de tout près.
----------------------------------------------------------- THE BOLWERKFANFARE IS GONE.
The service will be led by the ladies from RouwendeVrouwen.com and musically accompanied by Rat Ka Bay Bal, a band we’ve never heard of, but who claims having known the Bolwerkfanfare very well.
