Kukeri (Bulgarian; singular: kuker) is a traditional Bulgarian ritual to scare away evil spirits, with a costumed man performing the ritual. The costumes cover most of the body and includes decorated wooden masks of animals (sometimes double-faced) and large bells attached to the belt. Around New Year and before Lent, the kukeri walk and dance through the village to scare evil spirits away with the costumes and the sound of the bells, as well as to provide a good harvest, health, and happiness to the village during the year.
The kukeri traditionally visit the peoples' houses at night so that "the sun would not catch them on the road." After going around the village they gather at the square to dance wildly and amuse the people. The ritual varies by region but its essence remains largely the same.
Balkansky aka Cooh has stepped up to the dubplate to bring 3 solid percussive morsels to pleasure your ears.
Known for his hard hitting dnb with outputs on Position Chrome, Offkey and Subsistenz that have gained him so much credos in dnb has now turned his skills and unique energy to one of his main loves Dubstep. We are proud to bring you his first ever solo vinyl release on Subtrakt..s first solo output from a producer that continues to create tracks that push boundaries and set bench marks were ever he applies his craft.
Hipnoza: We have been rinsing this track at Subdivision HQ now for nearly 3 months and it's about time that we share this quirky slab of dubmanship. A real peak time monster of a track full of tight grooves and infectious rhythms that highlight what Balkansky is all about.
United keeps up the pressure with a true nodder, beating out solid grooves enhanced by lucid FX and rolling vocals that cut away from the groove creating depth and movement. Another must have number for any dubstep box.
Hitroza closes the deal with the beautiful Hitroza; again Balkansky captures the mood and then kills it with his stealth edged drums leaving room for the bass to do its worst whilst letting the cheeky synths skank breath in and out of the grooves.
