now released on deluxe double vinyl in a gatefold sleeve. balkan beats has been rocking the dance-floor of berlin's mudd club for more than a dozen years now, with dj robert soko brewing up his gypsy punk. now this crazy music is not only hurtling through the entire west, but also back into the balkans where it is mutating and being flushed back out again. thus 'balkan beats' gives birth to ever more spectacular combinations. anything goes: brass is flirting with euro pop, bagpipes pump up rock, klezmer grooves with electro, bregovic dancing with karmen and - why not? the main thing is that it rocks! dj robert soko's regular balkanbeats parties in paris, amsterdam or london, have found djs and musicians discovering what has been missing in western music for the last years - live, fire and a tad more craziness - using the know-how of the modern world and combining this with the old melodies and folk instruments of the balkans. for the third time the compilation series 'balkan beats' features dj robert soko's smash hits of the last year on one album - again compiled strictly from a dancefloor point of view. nothing smoothed out, but steaming and right in your face. the boys are grinning and jumping and the girls turn into wild gypsy brides. shake it, baby! life is too short for boring music.
