  • Bio

    A infectious infusion of eastern melodies and sultry London beats. Forty Thieves Orkestar create a unique sound both in their recorded material and in their live shows. Their influences range from Balkan Gypsy music, Klezmer, and Belly dancing music, to Hip Hop, King Tubby style Reggae and the laid back bar grooves of Kruder and Dorfmeister. Brass, clarinet, violins, accordion, oud, cymbalom and percussion interweave with earthy samples, crisp beats, evocative atmospheric sounds, and studio trickery.
