Cat in a hat - in French it's chat chapeau - in Spanish, it's a gato in a sombrero - in German it's a Katze in a Hut, I also know - it's a gwonka in a bonkeauank in Eskimo.
Now if you will allow me sir - but please don't think I'm pushing - I think that I can tell you - what it is in Russian: Chapka, shlyapa - what? - It's a chapka in a shlyapa, right!
It's a cat of many countries - it's a cat of many hats - it's a gufee in a busbee - it's a snaka in a snak But that's enough of that. It's a cat in a hat. (Thanks to Dr. Seuss!)
"But..." you may ask, "if it's about music from Eastern-Europe, Balkan and with Gypsy roots... why a French name for the label?"
Well, it sounds better, doesn't it? And actually that's what really matters: the sound!
Welcome to chat chapeau!
Artists:
!DelaDap - the sound of urban gypsies
Started in 2001 as a project idea in the studio of the prague born producer Stani Vana !DelaDap developed first into a trio later into a seven member live ensemble. By now the band turns more and more into a creativity platform for Gypsy rooted, central-european world sound.
dunkelbunt - about colours, spices, mixing & music
dunkelbunt has established himself as a fixed point within the Viennese Balkan scene. Whether with his several musical landscapes or with his famous oriental spice-mixtures: Ulf Lindemann, aka dunkelbunt extracts, subjoins, and mixes with passion, celebrating feasts for the senses.
Russkaja - you call, we ska!
Real Russian Wodka is made of rye. Real Russian Ska is made by Russkaja. Though the ingredients are different, the effect is the same. Wodka and Russkaja hit you right between the eyes!
The gigs of Russkaja are orgies of powerful rythmn, freaky vocals, extatic dance and they are electrifying the audience like hardly any other live-act.
