Shaped in the Gypsy ghettos (Mahala) around Bucharest, Mahala Raï Banda (literally Noble Band from the Ghetto), combines a surprising array of trends and styles. Combining Romanian violins & accordions with a brass section consisting of army brass band veterans and a rocking rhythm section, they're the rising band from the Balkans. They effortlessly combine a knack for inventive arrangements with an indeniable ability to turn every single concert into a wild party. Tracks by Mahala Rai Banda (alongside pieces by label mates Taraf de Haidouks and Kocani Orkestar) were reworked/recreated by Nouvelle Vague, Balkan Beat Box, Dj ClicK, Forty Thieves Orkestar and Russ Jones for the Electric Gypsyland 2 project, and their "Mahalageasca" appears in Sasha Baron Cohen's "Borat" film.

Ompakara med selveste Benny Borg på laget, har spilt inn ny og heftig versjon av den legendariske Balladen om Morgan Kane.
Det 12 manns store Elverumsorkesteret med Balkansound og patent på Gangsterpolka , har denne gangen kastet seg på Mariachiompa genren, hvor den Mexicanske Mariachitropmeten kommer til sin rett.
Ompakaras fele høres denne gangen ut som en Marimba , banjoen er bytta ut med stringswing flamenco gitar, og det trente øre vil høre et godt gammeldags 70 talls stueorgel vugge med.
Elverum mannskor preger et av Norges mest brukte refreng; Morgan Kane var hans navn. Kontakt.; Ivar Nergaard, 91793129, ivar@ompakara.no Harde fakta:
Morgan Kane trekker på 1/5 dels sekund
Morgan kane trekker over 1000 ganger iløpet av balladen om Morgan Kane.

Feedback on ERSATZMUSIKA's CD "SONGS UNRECANTABLE":
The second album of ErsatzMusika gained really good critics, but read for yourself: "Doubrovskaja's voice has the flat dispassionate edge of a latter-day Marlene Dietrich, perfect for intoning the slightly surreal combination of English and Russian... It's remarkable stuff!" (BBC Music)
"This is a reclamation in sound of the old weird Russia on the other side of the mirror, suffused in the gothic tremolo of duelling guitars, subterranean bass, off-kilter dance beats, an accordion that sounds as if it has been filtered through winter fog, ... Doubrovskaja's melancholic, dispossessed voice wandering like a haunted spirit across a terrain of old borders and broken idols." (The Independent)
DONA DUMITRU SIMINICA and UNDERWORLD??!!
The last issue of Songlines came along with a new "Top of the World - CD" featuring Karl Hyde's Top of the World Hits including DONA DUMITRU SIMINICA's song OSOREIA OSBARO! "Dona Dumitru Siminica? What a phantastic voice!" Karl Hyde (Underworld)
